I think he's got a cannon which he uses indiscriminately.
Excellent, outside that pesky 183-186cm range.He's 194cm, so you know he's good.
Heath Hocking did the blockingI have always considered that, despite the diatribe by fans at the end of his career, we never truly replaced David Myersin the midfield.PLAYERCARDSTARTDavid Myers

I mean in the sense of a player with a big frame that was willing and able to just crash bodies, carve out space for other mids at stoppages and destroy opponents in a tackle. We needed someone who could do the dirty, grunt oriented aspects that all good midfields have.
He didn't have huge personal numbers, but statistically our midfield in general fared better when he was in our stoppage mix.
I have no idea if this kid is that, but he is big, strong, aggressive and loves the physical aspect of the game, including tackling. Kicking skills be damned, he is halfway to what we need already.
He did some. Myers did it to good effect as well.
@42 seconds, picks up the ball and gives the don't argue to throw the tackler to the ground.
Rookie draft | Patrick Voss highlights

The bit i love is hes shot up this year. Usually takes player a bit to get use to a rapid growth increase and he seems to have handled. No doubt a huge reward little risk typeKids forward craft against men in his local comp as far back as 2019 at 16yo has been second to none in limited games and has been just as if not more physical than he has been in underage games. Can slot them from 45-50m and mark anything that comes near him. Step up at AFL level but good luck to him. Recruiters have noted agility is his problem which for me wasnt a big issue until I seen him this season, was always a tall kid but shot up last year or so so hopefully its just his body taking time to catch up with his growth.
He's 194cm, so you know he's good.
The Blue collar BombersThis draft truck had basically recruited players with grunt and aggression … Hobbs is a competitive beast who’s in your face and Voss who’s a man mountain and if he hits you ..you stay hit … along with Draper ,stringer , parish , Merrett in the guts … the centre bounced will because a place to fear for opposition …. Gotta love this
Genuinely surprised the Police weren't called after that - bordering on assault.@42 seconds, picks up the ball and gives the don't argue to throw the tackler to the ground.

6m30s 2km I think it was reportes in local paper during the week.Anyone know what his tanks like? Given he’s played both forward and defence, wonder if we just sit him in the VFL to develop him as a mid similar to what we did with Langford.
On what I seen of Townsend at the same age yes Voss has more talent.The bit i love is hes shot up this year. Usually takes player a bit to get use to a rapid growth increase and he seems to have handled. No doubt a huge reward little risk type
Can he be more than Townsend?
One of my best memories of NLM is him wrestling both Carr brothers at the same time then dropping one of them (Matthew I think) with a short right hook.He's intent to tackle and do damage reminds me of NLM and Ambrose.
