yep, not a key forward who can take contested pack marks ... but I think his pace may allow him to get separation for uncontested marks on the lead (if we had someone who could hit targets, that is).

Don't have it on tape, but I know exactly the one you're speaking of. When that happened, I text my Richmond mate & told him they can have him back

Shock Horror ... who would have seen that coming?
Trained the house down ... meh, not really.
Performed in preseason games ... no.
Came from 'profession Tigers outfit' where he didn't get a run at it ... seemingly. Those 8 AFL games and 57 VFL games suggest he had chances. Noah Balta preferred at Tigerland.
Key position depth ... not really ... third tall depth.
Outperformed others in preseason ... no, by all accounts Sturgess was far more impressive.
Felt like a Clayton's process as soon as he was invited in late.

You need to stop saying 'it's a free hit', because to take him now means one of Charlie and Kemp cannot resume mid-season unless another LTI occurs.
Better get rid of half the team while you're at it...
Keep in mind he was late to arrive at the club compared to the others, and has only been training with the club for a month. So he went from 2 training sessions a week, to a full professional pre-season, and then had his first match minutes with us.
I think he's an enormous mismatch at any level of the game, the only questions being his endurance, his game sense to create opportunities for himself and others, and the consistency of his kicking.
From what I've seen of his recent time at Richmond, he has done a lot of work on his kicking, and his endurance looks pretty good, so if he gets signed, he just needs to take his time and learn the systems.
People were talking up Webb for no reason given how utterly shot his body is. Cunico was always a runner without a position, like a slightly improved version of Mullett. Again, Cunico is signed to Northern, so we've got eyes on him and can take him mid-season if we're still in need.
Where are all these Sturgess reports? Kid needs more time at a much lower level from what I've seen and heard, and he's probably going to get that in the TAC. We also have the benefit of being able to play him at VFL level through the Knights-Blues connection, so he's available to us mid-season if we're happy with his progress.
Moore has the highest ceiling by far, and it's important to remember he was extremely late to the game having been a former basketballer. I hope we can sign him to the VFL team and develop him as a mid/forward, because he has way too many exciting attributes to sit outside the AFL system very long if he wants it. He's certainly working hard enough to.

Moore has also played well against us with bags of 4 and 5 goals in the VFL.
The downside being he does * all against everyone else

So you mean, whenever he has the CFC around him he kicks bags of goals ... I like it!
Kinda seems we're not overly keen on signing any of the train-on players tbh.
If someone does get it, feels like it's more because they were the best of an average bunch and we'll just take the depth, not because they wowed the coaches with the way they trained and in match practice and demanded being signed.
Moore seems like a third tall, and we already have McGovern, JSOS & Kennedy for that position.

You're talking about a system that comes after the rookie draft. If you're picking gems out of it, it's almost always because they had huge character or injury concerns (see: Stack and Pickett), not because people were blind to their talent.
The talent ID is too thorough right now for patently good players to be missed.

We don't have a free list spot beyond Kemp and Curnow being LTI listed. We're at 44 listed players between senior and category A rookie lists.

You sounded pretty optimistic regarding his potential/traits, so I was hoping we signed him. You don't think he will make it?
