Injuries and application as you’ve just stated mean that it’s not a bargain pick but par m. Yes he has massive upside if he applies himself and keeps fit and injury free, but these are big if’s in modern day football. The fact so many picks past him by suggests there are concerns. With our history of injury and players with poor attitude not realising their potential. I am cautiously optimistic.He’s a mid/forward more than half-back. Strong overhead, great clearance work.
He’s incredibly versatile though, can play anywhere. He played off HB for SA in that champs game before getting injured and looked the goods, he’s a forward runner so better being somewhere he can see the play too.
The knock on him was his two-way running because when his opponent won the ball at the stoppage he would (literally) walk, which he improved more towards the end before being injured. He’s a first round prospect if he can pull his finger out which hopefully comes in an elite environment. Like he looked super for say 80% of the game, if he can improve that 20% where he can be lethargic, then he’s got plenty of upside.

The other recruiters were right - slow and a poor kick.
Absolutely elite if it all comes together. But so was Shaz, Freeman, Sier. Broomhead had all the attributes on paper as well.Hopefully a whole new Setup will fix these Issues.
Of Course in the 3rd Round you Taking Players with some Question Marks but some part of his Game is seen as Elite
Well Dodoro annoys the sht out of everyone else in the league so that makes me happy.Moving up 2 spots by giving up a future 3 rounder to Geelong to get this kid shows they really wanted him. Effectively paid 2 third rounders for him.
He does look good though. Time will tell.
Dodoro did look annoyed after that move.
He gives me Pendlebury vibes. Sorry Matrix. Your still d Man , take young Arlo under your wings , and may he prosper to partially fill your sublime skills

I’m just going off what has been posted.suggesting he has a poor attitude seems a bit harsh. Kid sounded brilliant when interviewed.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to knock the kid before he has an opportunity to even prove his worth. The point of my OP was that on account of his reported laziness and his injuries he was picked later than some anticipated. This isn’t an accident, clubs are very deliberate in their approach, they don’t just forget to pick players.It’s been suggested he could lift his work rate defensively. I don’t think that means he had a bad attitude. It’s an area for him to work on. If the interview is anything to go by he comes across as a really level headed kid.
Yeah I’m a fan of this pick as well.I’m so on this Draper train

He be more than pushing for senior election in his first year , this kid has all the tools and skill set , it’s down to his application , dedication to working hard on the track and how much he wants to be the best he can be , natural footballer with talent that can light up the football world on the football field. Go well young manThink Arlo can push for senior selection year 1
has senior experience, a reasonable body, and is smart with the ball
good selection
