Don’t think this cancels out Honey or Durdin in the slightest.

Voss has come from a system that would rotate through 4-5 small forwards/high half forwards, and we are clearly trying to align ourselves with what is becoming pretty standard structure.

We need more players who can keep the ball in our front half and have the ability to win the ball back off the opposition before they can launch. This has been an issue for years.

He looks great welcome Jesse

 

[Keyza]

He looks so young.
Welcome to Carlton, happy to have him on board.

Not to mention Jack Martin. Lots of threats in the air and on the ground. Hopefully they do their work on set shot goal kicking to make the most of the opportunities.

Nice pick up for what was left on the board. Humble kid that has a great work ethic, especially when he doesn't have the pill, always looking to share the footy

I like it

Was best available at that stage we had to otherwise tigers would've taken him

Seems like a good kid. We've got him in, time to develop him into the best player he can be (something we've struggled to do for a long time now)

Great pick up, I’m kind of thankful that hawks picked up McDonald before us as Motlop is the type of player that we needed. The mosquito fleet is building!!

Got some tricks…

So much fun to watch, such an entertaining player. Really hope he makes it, would love to see him lighting up the G.

 

[Christou2Kouta]

I can already here the crowd murmuring "Jesse!" whenever he approaches the ball. Can't wait to watch him play.

I have no idea about Motlop or many of the other kids available, but I’m happy with the type of player we have picked, there is big question marks over a lot of the similar players we have on our list.

Good luck to the kid

This fella will bring the house down at the G would day

I was going to say, I doubt Durdin keeps Martin out of our best forward line - not at this stage anyway

 

[RedFury]

Can kick a goal from 50.

It's a small enough problem that I'd have confidence in us to correct it. One or two pre-seasons with us and he'll be looking to dish off the responsibility from 35 out - no issues

But seriously .. love the pickup.

The $64,000 question for me is will Voss be a bit more adventurous in his selections than Teague? I hope so coz I’d like to see this kid soon.

 

[rampar]

Doesn't panic with ball in hand. I like the kid

you better show some patience with him - don't go expecting fireworks from day 1 - hear that?

 

[passmark]

Just tell me Shifter hasn’t given him the “steal of the draft” kiss of death.

 

[Gointocarlton]

Seems like a confident young man who speaks very well and comes across as a extrovert which is the type we need.
He is a tad small but thick in the legs and core. Lets see how he goes against men, good luck to the lad.

 

[thylacine60]

been playing against "men" for a while now........

 

[rampar]

Reminds me of a young James hird.

Blasphemy
