Daniel Curtin Will Be The Best Player in The AFL in 5 Years Time

I thought OP went way too early, but if he continues his growth, he is going to be one crazy unique player that teams are not going to be able to match up.
197cms, breakaway speed, elite left foot, strong pack mark, and is now getting bigger disposal numbers.

Now I'm not backing up OPs claim, but he could be anything if it all clicks for him.

Does he have breakaway speed?
He seems to play a lot like Dawson?
Awesome players but not sure speed is their weapon.

He has more breakaway speed than Dawson.

He's not Rankine like but he is quick.

If you watch our last few games, there are instances where he has run away from quick opposition.

Theres a clip of him a couple of weeks ago where he was flat footed and then put the peddle down and ran through the middle of the ground to lace out the ball on his left to Thilthorpe.
While he might not be as quick as some, the speed he does have, together with the size, just makes him a breakaway threat for those playing next to him.

It's his whole package that's unique.
Theres players taller, there's players faster, there's players who are a stronger contested mark, but there's very few who are as tall as him, as quick as him, as elite a kick as him, as good as Mark as him in the same package.

He obviously has some way to go, but if it all clicks, he is going to be some player.
 
Is the closest young player I've seen that seems Bontempelli like or has similar traits.

Its like in last 3 weeks he's figured out oh I'm actually good! I'm bigger and stronger than pretty much all other wings in the comp.
 
They’ll move him to midfield and he’ll just be run of the mill is the issue.
Huh, Curtin is currently playing as a midfielder?

Perhaps stick to commenting on what you know...

He’s a winger

Every winger with an ounce of ball winning ability is an inside midfielder. :)

Really though, considering how strong Curtins around-ground game is, there probably isn't a whole lot to worry about with the inside transition, when it does happen.
