Quite impressed with what I have seen, even with limited touches. Looks strong over the ball and has some neat sidestep moves I wasn't expecting. Hope we manage to get quite a few games into him this season as he looks the type of player that may step up levels quite quickly and well.

looks green but that's to be expected, also looks like he belongs at this level. Good signs at an early stage

It's funny, I've seen far more posts saying he's not as quick as thought than I have posts that said he was quickstill not the quick I was lead to believe he is. BF lies
Looked composed and made decent decisions under pressure.
So I'm not sure which is the bigger myth - that's he is quick or that people said he was

At TAC Cup level he looked to have a quick burst of pace, and his sprint tests at the draft combine only validated that perception. A 2.88 second 20M sprint isn't slow, I don't know why he isn't showing any burst of speed these days.
It may be just me but even Shuey and Darling looked to have a better top speed, back in 2011 and 2012.

It is probably based on his draft combine, 2.88 second 30m sprint time.
I reckon it only takes 1 hamstring injury for that to go from 2.88 to 3.08 though and a lot of the time people mistake agility for speed, which might not be something Kurt is good at.
EDIT: See above.
We might see flashes of pace as he builds confidence and takes the game on. Once he has more core strength in coming seasons, he may be hard to stop.still not the quick I was lead to believe he is. BF lies

would leave him in for more games than Jetta for the rest of the season
Shuey was a lot less bulky and played more outside in 2011.

I was actually surprised by how quickly he moved when he was chasing players TBH.
For a bulky 45 per day frame, i thought he covered the ground well without looking too speedy.

Quite liked his 2nd game, definitely showing quite a bit of confidence already. I really liked his one handed mark. I can see him continuing to improve and keeping his spot long term.

Is it just me or does Kurt look short for his height? Wondering if he has the long neck/head thing Swift had going on.
He looks quicker than Dustin Martin which may be a perception thing . He needs to work on all the perceptions and will be a great player.
His head does look different . Like a fridge door got slammed on it as a kid is all i can think of . Unless it got caught in a vice or someone reversed into it .

Looks like he's got the short legs long torso thing going on. Cant say I saw his 'speed' in the last two games that he was supposed to have.
Jokes aside, I think he's playing well.
Looks like a good mover with a bit of dance in his step which i like.
Loved his kick off half back where he got it, turned fast and made a quick decision to kick it 55 on a 45 flat and lace out.

If he maintains some kind of form he will probably get 6-8 games similar to Duggan and Nelson's first crack at it barring injuries etc.
Kurt looks like he needs another good pre-season of running under his belt at a minimum. A lot to like about his first 2 outings though.
