His agility and power on the twist and turn, alongside what appears a great goal sense and finishing ability, is quite appealing. Reminds me a little of DeGoey's highlights from his junior days. If he can get 3 metres on defenders on the semi circle, be interesting to see what an AFL pre-season can do for him...
We should be able to get him at 61.

What do people think of KM's idea that StKilda would bid on , and get a half back flanker "Cumming" that they can't be bothered with?

At least we can't say KM is afraid to back himself.
I haven't seen anyone else predict Florent or Cox as early as he has, or Battle and Rotham as late.
He also seems to list a few guys who aren't on other peoples radar.
He is certainly not like the rest of the copycat media, but I don't rate his knowledge of our list needs.

61 would seem the chance.
Hearing Trout on the podcast the other day looks like size will be prioritsied first
Tend to agree and we know he loves the kids with great character. So 23 probably looks like Berry, Dylan Clarke or Griffin Logue, size versatile and known strong characters.

If I had seen SPP play midfield which he obviously does at WAFL Colts level, I may be more settled on chosing him. But isnt the WAFL Colts like the TAC B grade?

Yeah probably, some people can learn some can't, just depends wether they think they can fix, his kicking is inconsistent it isn't shit, in the all stars game he didn't miss a target
I realise the combine has limitations regarding it's relationship to actual games but Powell-Pepper killed it in the beep test, agility and clean hands (all top 10), but the most stunning result was in the goal kicking where he got a perfect score of 30/30, five clear of the next best.

The all-stars game backed up that performance on the big stage.

If nothing else it shows he can learn and is probably even motivated to prove the naysayers wrong.

CJ did OK at goal kicking. 6 goals 1 behind in 2013 ( though maybe there were 12 out on the full's ).

Or the other option is people over state the disposal issues....

He played HBF in both the U18's & All Stars game, unless he can become a full midfielder we dont need more flankers.
