He may end up a forward anyway. Reads the play well, great mover and massive tanksYep, a word of congratulations must go out to the draft team from 2013/14 a very nice pickup with #37 in a compromised draft. Of course I was hoping for a KPF at the time so some humble pie is quietly being eaten in a corner.
I think we need to take a punt and try him as a forward when Dawson/Johnson/Silvagni are back.
He's a ripper! Loved his confidence last night. Side stepped a couple of Magpies with aplomb.Agree with this,Alex has all the tools for a KPF.
Sorry to jump in here..
Three years ago I played coastal U19's footy against Alex, who was playing for Ulverstone down here in Tassie. He played CHF and absolutely tore us to shreds and I thought to myself "Who the hell is this guy and how is he not playing seniors?!" I'm pretty sure the next week he was in the 1's and we didn't have to play 19's against him again, thank god!!
The next season he went and played for Devonport in the Tasmanian State League (our version of the WAFL, VFL, etc), made the state U18's side, and was drafted to the AFL 18 months after playing U19's footy against a plodder like me.
Anyway it's great to see him getting games and playing an important role for the best side in the comp this early in his career (not exactly something that Ross is known for doing).

I'm around 173-175cm, out of shape, and haven't played a game in 14-15 months due to an injury.. rookie list chance??Are you taller than 195? Might have a spot for ya

Needless to say I wasn't playing on Alex that day..
Sounds like a definite upgrade.Sylvia's spot is open then
He has the physical attributes of a Cameron, McCarthy or Gunston. I'd love to see if he can kick a goal.Pearce could make a terrific forward as has been noted. My heart sings with joy partly because of his skill, heart and willingness to take the game on but most of all because he looks to have natural footy smarts and decision making ability. Has all the physical attributes but you can't teach the other stuff.
Can't wait until he moves up to beast mode with a few pre-seasons under his belt.
He has the frame to build up to a really solid build.
Can I ask why? Tanner looks hopeless to me what I've seen of him this year.I am hopeful on Tanner Smith too. Either of them KPF and KPD.
