No you have to be 20 and under at the start of year(January 1st) I believe, he just turned 21.Isn’t Moore still eligible for a nomination next year?
For what it’s worth, I recon every eligible player should just be up for consideration for the award at the end of the year. Not sure what the point of the nominations are each week apart from some sponsorship exposure for NAB.

I actually think he should be starting midfield, resting forward. Made everyone around him look better in that last game, great sign
Thing is that he was playing like his career was on the line, and it probably was. No good if he can't perform like that consistently. But of course we won't know if that's the case unless he gets another year, so I'd give it to him. But I'd be wary if next year he again only shows this level towards the end of the year.I actually think he should be starting midfield, resting forward.

I’m pretty sure if you go back over his Pre draft stuff that he was more a mid playing that role he did on the weekend as well as in the middle.Thing is that he was playing like his career was on the line, and it probably was.

More games will see him flourishI’m pretty sure if you go back over his Pre draft stuff that he was more a mid playing that role he did on the weekend as well as in the middle.
If he can consistently get over 20 touches and 4-5 score involvements he would quite easily sit in the best 22.
He was rated pretty highly in a few draft boards and I think we will find that we were very luck to pick him up where we did.
I recon a full preseason under his belt and some extended work with Mitchell (Sam) we may well have a goal kicking kid that we have been looking for for quite some time. He would be a sneaky chance for 15-20 goals with a bit more fitness and confidence in himself and from others.
Certainly at under 18 level he did play in the centre square as well as a high half forward role. He doesn't stand up in the tackle well enough for a permanent inside mid role but I could see him being in the rotation if he can get a bit stronger. Showed good hands and vision when under pressure.I’m pretty sure if you go back over his Pre draft stuff that he was more a mid playing that role he did on the weekend as well as in the middle.

Not sure he isn't an option up forward. He has kicked 2 very crafty goals in the seniors this year. Has a knack around goals - it is one of his strengths. He doesnt have explosive pace like a Poppy did but he can craft goals.He's definitely not a solution up forward, even resting. Doesn't have the pace to turn it on in that area.
He played the same role Scully was playing in the weeks prior and he performed it really well. Linked up beautifully.
