Top-10 draft prospect Harry Sheezel hopes to inspire his Jewish community if he is drafted.

"There hasn't been as many Jewish footballers lately to make it into the AFL, so it's kind of special to hopefully be the first one [drafted] in a while. Everyone has been so supportive and living it with me, in a sense," Sheezel said.

"I hope to be pretty inspiring for younger kids as well because I feel like the Jewish community is really into sport as well, they love their footy, so hopefully I can inspire a few more kids to hopefully go down the same path."
