Welcome to Tigerland - Callum Moore

He could be part of the underwater iceberg bit?

Oh, that's a press release, e,t. They're about PR.

Callum Moore was the story of the day AFAIC. In the magoos. He emerged. More like a pirate ship than an iceberg. ;D

We got a good look at his athleticism today, Robert.

I only got there for the second half but I can tell you that Callum Moore is a superior athlete. He is quick, jumps over buildings. And his kicking was good again.

Last week he was ... cautious. He didn't just throw himself at the moment. It was like he was overthinking. He even point-blank turned it up once. (He went very hard at the next contest.) He just wasn't sure. Maybe of where to run, when to. Formations, his role in them. You could be forgiven for thinking he was unsure of whether he wanted to play footy. There was that not belonging kinda thing. (Chol gets this worse IMO, FWIW.)

But Callum Moore let fly today. Pwoar. He can ruck rove alright. (Except the ruck bit, Lambchops. ;D) Inside mid. Running #3 forward. CHF. Outside mid. HFF.

He tired. Started to find himself outnumbered on the break. Dunno about his tank. But this Callum Moore has really got it.

Nice recommendation!

His tank may get there next autumn Jack. He'd be a lovely intercept mark pushing back, and a lovely release option for a clearing kick to the wing.

I think he might be even better than that, TBH. He was awesome. (Did you go today? I was only there for a half.)
 
Maybe full forward? His lack of tank won't be exposed.
 
Needs to spend the off season building his tank and converting himself into a left foot kick. The development team should be all over him this summer reaching him the correct kicking mechanics on his left side.

Skinner or Butts maybe?

Superb athlete but horrific kick.

One of my favourite guitarists is a guy named Maximo Pujol.

I like 'Seymour Pujol'. But the 'Seymour' bit is so versatile, Lazarus. But Skinner is a natural.
 
Seymour is a good user, by and large. Spook told me this a couple of months ago and I thought he was on drugs. Seymour's field kicking is often very good. Likewise his handball. Long kicking and set shots are his flaw.

He and Chol rotate. Chol back for the first half with Seymour forward, and then switch. So it's natural to compare them. Seymour is immature and he gets lost on the park. But when he engages he's much busier and more effective. He's not as immature as Chol. But he isn't ready. He's not fully engaged.

Callum Moore
12 disposals, three marks, one tackle


Probably struggled to impact up forward, but when we put him back he took his moments. It might not have been his game overall, but he stood up in the moments and had some critical ones in the last quarter to help us get the game on our terms.
 
Yer, so he's probably just not ready yet, but would still love to see him get perhaps our last G game. Play him behind Jack in the TV seagull role.

He's so much faster than JR or TV, and a really promising mark, can fly. I guarantee the opp backs won't be zoning off to go to Jack constantly if we made Callum the target sometimes.

If you look at Jack Silvagni now, who is just starting to make his way at AFL, he has Cal covered for kicking without a doubt. But Cal well and truly reverses it on sheer all-round athleticism.
