Good luck Jacob!

 

[TazD]

Nice, we needed a small forward

 

[manureid]

Pick him this week.

 

[Long live PAFC]

Great news.

Good luck Jacob.

Any idea where we see him? Ruck? Forward?

 

[It Just Is]

I like it. Looks a well built 19 year old.

 

[RossFC]

"Moss has been granted approval from the AFL to train with the Power for the rest of the 2024 season and he can be selected to play for the SANFL side if required."

 

[RossFC]

Sounds like an 18 month deal.

 

[Lefti93]

Interesting. Worth a shot.

'Basketball background'

 

[Peninsula Boy]

I was having a cry in the off season and someone mentioned we had a ruck waiting for Cat B and boy has it taken a while.

Good luck Jacob.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

What's his vertical leap like?

Good luck Jacob.

Good news for our list management to have him and the likely Benny Barrett as recruits that could fill up our Cat B list next year.

I like the fact that he's played footy most of his life, so the basics are probably all there, but he's stepped away a few years and now wants to give it a crack. Who knows if he'll have that intangible competitive edge, and the ability to find the ball, but this feels like a worthy gamble.

[Chrizzt]

A project athletic tall. Just the type of player we have historically excelled at developing into competent footballers.

 

[afl2004]

Good luck mate

 

[Schulzenfest]

Welcome aboard, Temu BZT

 

[HugeJohnson]

I'm assuming one of our other ruckman are out the door end of season then. Otherwise my concern is how do you develop these guys when you have 3 rucks running around in our reserves team looking for the same opportunities

If he plays as a CHF/backup ruck. It then keeps Scully forward.

It's a slam dunk.

I'm eyeing off BB bigtime as well.

I've fears for Ivan injury wise but that to one side he's likely to sit forward and 10 minutes here and there at Sanfl level next year.

He'll be fine that's plenty for year one.

Year 2 we will always have a Ruck injured or suspended. Could be we play 2 Rucks at afl level?

Could be he's a key position prospect?

Anyway wish him the best.

 

[Scottroo]

Jacob is from my footy club in Adelaide. Very very good junior footballer who struggled with some injury’s. Has a massive vertical leap.

Very good pickup

He's 198cm, that's not necessarily ruck height these days.

I'd be interested to see if they think key forward or back.

Was he a dominant junior?

 

[Scottroo]

Was he a dominant junior?

Yeah. He was top 2 in his age group
