I went over the highlights again.

He doesn't have the traditional midfield speed, the boot or the clearance work but he cares, is a massive runner, is excellent with link up play and has a very good footy IQ.

I think he use to play basketball and he has a bit of that point guard, distributor way about him that would actually really complement our guns in the midfield and get them the ball in the right places and help with one twos and general flow on offence.

I would love him to get some muscle on him and really attack the clearance part of his game and run hard defensively as well.

A very interesting watch.
Yep
Jason Kidd vibes

Port Adelaide Track watch: Draftee Christian Moraes a standout​

The story of Port Adelaide training so far might be a kid that’s only been there a few days.

Synopsis of comments on Moraes:
"It is very early, but Port Adelaide might have found a draft gem....
Discussed as a potential top-10 — or even top-five — pick at the start of the year, there was a fair bit of surprise that the Eastern Ranges’ running machine slid to where he did....
Other clubs could end up coming to rue overlooking him in the future....
On top of his tank, Moraes had plenty of impressive moments both by hand and by foot ...
Particularly impressive was some of his work in traffic in the Power’s small sided match-play drills....

 
Having the engine Christiano has made him a big chance to play possibly from day 1, but if he's showing skills and tricks too, watch out.

 
He asked for 13 but they gave him 31? Christian ‘Fly’ Moraes?

He asked for 13 and they gave him 13.. right?

I have been watching YouTube videos of Moraes and geeez he has very bad skills and decision making. He gets alot of the ball wins clearances and kicks goals, but turns it over with a majority of his disposals. I also didn't like the footage of Xavier Duursma so I am very happy to be proven wrong
