He is in the top 10-15 mids in the comp this year. I think that is a gun.

Brett Johnson and Adam Bentick say hi back.
We do need pace in the middle, so that's a tick. Whether he's good enough at the top level though...
Left footed midfielder who is a good kick, has pace and has some size about him.
I know a few people who were involved with him at junior football and basically said as soon as he got delisted by Fremantle, he has left no stone unturned to get himself back into the AFL system.
I think we will be pleasantly surprised on how he goes for us.

Welcome to the Blues Josh. Like some have already mentioned.......
.......Great to have another Italian on the team. Maybe we can recreate some old Carlton culture again.
From the highlights, looks a good sort. Could fit in well.
Buona fortuna e forza Josh. Ciao

When I read his kicking efficiency ranges between 50-65% in a state league-I shudder
Adam Bentick would be a handy player in our current lineup.

What a bonus if Matty could get 100% fit and play on for 2-3 more years and get to enjoy some big wins - not unimaginable.

That is pretty good for an inside mid I would have thought ? Certainly has some size and a bit of leg speed.

I did a silly thing, I read the comments on the club's announcement of his selection on Facebook.
Painful would be an understatement.

Some posters look way too hard to find a negative.
If he can achieve 2/3 of his numbers at AFL level then that's an immediate bonus.
There is no reason to doubt the possibility of this happening.
This is not the thread for negativity and those spreading it need to give it up.
Tim Kelly is a gun btw.

If you browsed the stats and footage of a state league player and couldn't find anything to pick on, they'd already be on an AFL list.
It's about what he'll bring to the team for the rest of this year and scope for future development.
The only way someone can disagree with this statement is if you define gun as the top 1% of players.

Welcome Josh, have a crack and see if you can earn a spot for next season on....also steer clear of the Bolts thread as some of us are a little ansty
What system? To destroy any attacking flair he once had, move it slowly around the boundary (like Malthouse) at all cost, and learn to repeatedly snatch defeat from the jaws of victory? Ah, that system... good luck Josh (I kinda feel sorry for you).

Aren't we due for someone like this to pop up and take the league by storm? Everyone else seems to find these gems but us.
Afl coaches rated kicking efficiency the most over rated stat in the game. However given I work in people analytics I want to mention that just because they think it doesn’t mean it’s true..
