I feel like he might be a chance to debut round one.
9 games in the SANFL, might be some tools to work with but that would be reaching

The comment our recruiter made was they want to see what he can do in a professional environment. Seems a low risk potential high reward situation.This pick seems to be based on potential rather than any outstanding form. In his 9 games for Sturt he was not listed in the best players in any of them. Averaged 13.9 disposals, 2.8 marks. His main attribute was kicking efficiency at 94%. Has 'come out of the blue' playing for Sturt this season. Wearing jumper No 53 might support this assessment.
Obviously, our recruiters have seen some characteristics they like and if his improvement is still on an upward trajectory, we may have an interesting player.
He was focused on cricket and had spent minimal time in an elite football environment - in fact, none at all, all I can see as a reference is him just playing standard juniors and ammos footy before playing SANFL, and that would have only been in the winters he wasn't playing cricket in England. The fact that he was hanging with ex-AFL players and blokes who were graduates of the state under 18 teams and coming through the SANFL U/18s and reserves shows the untapped potential.This pick seems to be based on potential rather than any outstanding form.

Scrag trying to inject some life into the most boring off-season ever.
Ex-cricket type chased from SA who plays in defence? As if that will ever work!He was focused on cricket and had spent minimal time in an elite football environment - in fact, none at all, all I can see as a reference is him just playing standard juniors and ammos footy before playing SANFL, and that would have only been in the winters he wasn't playing cricket in England.

Reminds me of David King. Big body, booking kick, ugly head
If you look at the top 10 ugliest heads in the AFL, they all have heads. It’s an incredible stat. 100% have heads, that’s a complete crossover. Unbelievable. Who would have thought?Reminds me of David King. Big body, booking kick, ugly head
This is Tom Boyd’s small hands all over again.Is this guy really 193cm? He doesn't look it from the footage.
He seems to have a short neck also, so would be taller at the shoulders than most guys his height which will give him a bit of extra reach.
At that height with the way he moves and kicks he looks like a really exciting prospect.
If he could develop a strong defensive edge and gain a bit of strength he could be a real weapon.
It feels like ages since we took a high risk, high reward type in the rookie draft. I'm excited to watch this guy develop.
