Thread is turning into a dumpster fire rapidly.
Until he puts on 10 kegs and adds AFL conditioning, no one should be making any calls on him.
He has the tools. He needs time.

Mate people are mainly saying he isn’t ready and should be playing reserves. Which is inarguable.Thread is turning into a dumpster fire rapidly.

Is it his running/chasing that people think needs to be improving in the two’s? That seems fair.Mate people are mainly saying he isn’t ready and should be playing reserves. Which is inarguable.
If you are so inclined, go through my posts on him from August-November 2023.

He has multiple off-seasons to achieve this. I don't see a problem with his frame.It is incredibly hard to put on that amount of mass AND build the requisite tank for a modern day half forward.
BMTT™You haven't said much about Daniel Curtin battling a bit at Adelaide.
Hindsight is a wonderful thing, but having 2 of Sanders, O'Sullivan, Caddy, Windsor or Wilson would've plugged a couple of bigger holes than HFF....No idea why we pulled out of trading pick 3 for 6 and 11, I don't want to s**t to much on Zane but why would we use a top 3 pick on a skinny half forward with practically zero defensive pressure. I remember draft time last year I didn't even think about Duursma as I thought there would be zero chance we'd draft him
Noice.Hard not to be excited about Zane.
With his leap and overhead marking, combined with his footskills, could see him becoming a Sicily-esque gun intercept defender.
Could transition from a half forward to becoming a genuine midfielder, a Connor Rozee type, smooth mover and classy with the ball in hand.
And he's so good in the air, could definitely play as a 2nd or 3rd tall, a nightmare matchup who can beat you in the air and when the ball hits the deck.
He could genuinely be anything.
Footy IQ is where he excels and has good hopsHe's talented enough to be a good player, so not concerned that he's not good enough. Not at all.
BUT...its really hard to be a forward of that size without and explosive traits. Really hard. I hope they're working on deciding what his future position is going to be.
10 games in, turns 19 on the final day of the season...yeah he's a bust....

I remember reading similar posts re Joel Crocker. I think he actually lost weight while he was at NMFC. Have you seen the change in body shape of Harley Reid in his 6 mths at WCE??? Extraordinary.Thread is turning into a dumpster fire rapidly.
