Is he any relation to Kate?

Big wraps on this guy. Happy we took a state league mature age player to add some depth.

 

[CWaffles]

Everyone loves a Hore.

 

[nahnah]

He is very good, he's somewhat similar to Langdon. I was hoping the pies would take him and I dont often hope we take players from our VFL team

 

[The Plowking]

All the best Marty Hore!

 

[markm106]

Good to pick up someone who could come straight in if required. Takes a good grab and looks to have decent skills.

After giving you Harry O'brien this is our peace offering. Would have played games with us this year if we could pick him. Looks a good player and hope he does well for you. Good depth player behind Hibberd, Lever etc. I'm disappointed we rookied Oxley last year instead of giving him the rookie spot.

You mean queens birthday superstar.

Everyone loves a Hore.

Especially one who's good with their hands

 

[Topkent]

7 marks a game is what Jeremy McGovern gets in the AFL. Not suggesting they are the same player but those are good raw statistics.

Howe
McGovern
Laird
Stewart
Sicily
Jonas
Hibberd
Grimes
Smith
Rampe
Wood
Barass

These guys were all unheralded pick ups and mostly rookies. There's definently scope for a gem in these types

 

[Dark Avenger]

Is he any relation to Kate?

No but he is the son of Peter.

I would have sent this prick to manus .

Ex Melbourne great Gary Moorcroft caught on the back of a Hore.

 

[El Gringo]

The latest Taylor VFL selection, he’s got good form in this area so I’ll be watching with interest.

 

[Jordie_tackles]

Knightmare from the DT board had this to say.

Happy to get Marty Hore as a rookie.

Arguably the best general defender outside the AFL, Collingwood's VFL player Marty Hore is a class above. He possesses a reliable left foot and a kicking efficiency of 79 percent. His intercept marking and contested marking are further strengths, with five games including 10 or more marks and an average of two contested marks per game. The 189cm, 22-year-old is an ideal list addition for any club short one quality defender and is good enough to slip into a best 22 and hold his spot.

Dare I say, he may be better than Quaynor. Different game. Not as athlete or as strong of a physical profile but a far better rebounder/intercepter/kick.

Competing with Joel Smith potentially.

Will be fascinating - Smith has come back in ripping shape and came third in the 3km time trial on day one I believe.

Smith's athletic size was never his problem though it was football ability

Wait until the big boys come back before we start handing out the time trial medals...

Could be a real Smokey for round 1. Ranked 1 in effective kicks in VFL. 2 for intercept marks and possessions. If Lever isn’t back in early I’d say he’ll be a very good chance of games.

I love the fact that over the last couple of draft periods we have picked up mature aged kids, that have VFL exp. (See VFL Premiership player Mitch Hannan)
I would give Hore #23

Yep, let’s hope Hore follows in Hannan and Fritchs footsteps and is able to make the transition into senior level at AFL.
