I thought moore looked quite good in that final game against essendon.....almost kicked some nice goals after showing great athleticism for a big fella...
Moore nearly won the game when he Tore Carlisle a new one. Just missed a Goal and Missed a Target inside 50 late. Showed a little bit of lack of Experience there

Can't believe the Anti-Moore types on this thread. Some of the things he did in season 1 defy belief. He will be a very very good player -one to build a team around.
Not sure if the anti Moore driver here.
Certainly not from me and any astute observer.
He is going nicely, will undoubtably continue to improve.
Where he gets to finally, well he will determine that himself as he will be theone earning it physically.

To me it's only about time lines, and if we see the full Moore sooner or a bit later.
He certainoh should get games over say white (if it comes to a choice between the two) to aid his development etc.

He'll be fine no worries, just time lines

I'd think he'll be AA quality without doubt. He's so driven to succeed. Hard at it. A good kick. Great work ethic. Smart head on his shoulders. Great genetics. The only thing stopping him from being AA is time. It will come.

Nah, I'll back Dave in on that. Moore's debut year was a lot more impressive than many on this forum give him credit for. I reckon he has the goods to be an AA.
I don't understand supporters doubting Moore's ability off the back of his first season. There is no reason why he should not reach the heights of his old man. I reckon he will be an absolute beauty in a couple of seasons.

I agree - I think he'll be fine. Never AA quality, but certainly solid enough I believe.
Adam McPhee was once an AA. There are plenty of very ordinary players that have very good seasons and been rewarded. I don't see Moore in that boat.

He'll be a consistently above average player at least and more likely a very good one. His skill, athleticism and fierce desire will give him every chance of being a significant player. With that, I'm sure he'll have a least a season where things go his way.

Im rapt with Moore's debut season, but saying a safe bet on an AA is a big call considering theres maybe 3? KPF at most in an Australian side. Considering Jesse Hogan and Jeremy Cameron might hold two of those spots for the next 10 years it makes it slim!

Things change quickly, who knows what will happen with Hogan and Cameron? They have far more runs on the board than Moore (Cameron in particular) but stranger things have happened than one or even both of them never cementing themselves as a top 3 KPF in the game for an extended period of time, let alone the best.
