How about his crap kicking?? seriously, the two best passes of the year came off his boot today. Its so funny when people make early snap judgments and then never change their mind.

I think he is a beauty.

^^His kicking is still crap. Had a number of poor ones today. Every now and then he does get it right though and did make a couple of nice passes.

Adam's is going to be a monster.
He grips the ball to his chest and charges his way out of trouble like Mathews used too do.
...
IMO in 3 years time Moore will be our most important player.
By then he'll beef up to be a tall strong, agile, fast, smart and kicking most of our goals.
Team him up with Mason Cox and you have a ruck-forward duo that's going to be hard to defeat!
He's already being spoken of as a future captain and judging by todae's efforts (and the 5 goals against the Dougs) I can see why.

The captains kicking was no better today and Adams effort shot all over mr perfect

That's a crap comment from you inky. He's generally a very good kick, but occasionally - like most players - he sprays them.

Can't agree, he's one of our worst kicks.

I like the kid but he is a butcher. Did you idiots even watch the game?

^^^ If he were a quarterback, he would be Jay Cutler.

HIs kicking is improving IMO, he'll never be a good kick but over time (like Swan has) he'll learn to know his limitations, and let's not pretend we pretty much have a team of ball butchers, and I'll tell you one of our worst when it comes to feild kicking and decision making, Jamie Elliot, he's border line hopeless unless he's kicking for goal.

I don 't think Elliot's the standard, just quietly. I think we're aiming for Varcoe/Sidebottom/Pendlebury/Langdon.

His kicking can stink just look at eff%
He has good form though and really try's to drill the pass Which I like

His Kicking was Really good today

Nothing wrong with his kicking as such, it's his decision making and/or composure at times that is his weakness.
It's unusual in a way, he makes better decisions under pressure than when given time and space.

He's a beauty!!
Completely agree with the OP, except for the "in 3 years" bit.

He's an inside player disposing of the ball under pressure, of course his efficiency is down a bit. Will people not be happy until we have a player with size, speed, agility with a beautiful kick and pinpoint handball who has a huge vertical leap, toughness, is a hard tackler who gets his own ball then uses it with poise on the outside?

We had such a player for many, many years and most people on this board spend all day and all night trying to get him fired from the coaching role!!!
