From watching the highlights video, he seems like a small marking forward like Owies with good footskills - can pass the ball well.
Will play wing or high half forward I reckon.
Should hopefully improve F50 connection and looks like he also has the tank to work back defensively also.

Ok that settles it.. we’re recruiting Walsh’s mates now to ensure he doesn’t leave.

It’s a Bryce Gibbs/Mark Austin situation all over again 🤣

The thought did occur to me.

Jordan Russell/Adam Hartlett was another one.

Although we had amazing foresight to get Cooper Lord BEFORE we traded down for Jagga Smith.

From the highlights it looks like he can bomb it long into the 50 as good as anyone so that’s a big tick ✔️

😉

Looks like we have someone other than Charlie that can take advantage of an open goal square. Also seems to be able to beat the press.

Hitting too many targets and kicking too many goals for mine. How long will it take our 'development programme' to work those skills out of his game !!! Little does he know he has hit the 'Bermuda Triangle' of footy clubs !!! He will be lucky to get out alive.

Once upon a time our development program consisted of recruiting ball magnets then playing them as shutdown taggers in the backline “so they could learn the caper” now our development program consists of ensuring that “they kick it to no one in particular”.

Reminds me a little of Luke Power... though Luke was an even better runner and naturally a bit tougher over the ball.

Got the right development coach for the job, it would seem.

The goals from outside 50 look sexy.

But what gets me excited is his ability to spot an open forward and then kick to advantage.

Now all we have to do is work out how to get an open forward!!!
