Hardwicks bloody problem is he is trying to fill the team with "hard nuts" like he was and that era has gone. You can't have a team full of them.The performance of Morris showed that this year.
Title: Re: Richmond interested in Port's Andrew Moore
Post by: Hellenic Tiger on October 12, 2015, 09:33:41 PM
Morris barely got the ball WAT.
You can and need to have a few hardnuts in the side as long as they can get 25 plus possies each.

Voss, Black, Lappin and Aker say hello.
So does Luke Power, Shaun Hart and Martin Pike. :thumbsup

A good player in today's game can play hard in and under and play outside when needed also. Fyfe is the classic case.

Didn't say he was a good one - at best he'll be an upgrade on Thomarse.
Title: Re: Re: Andrew Moore
Post by: Andyy on October 25, 2015, 02:52:03 AM
I'm not convinced he'll be an upgrade on Thomas.

At least you know with Thomas he's good for 20-odd touches, 10 contested, and probably a handful of tackles...
Title: Re: Re: Andrew Moore
Post by: Diocletian on October 25, 2015, 03:11:50 AM
Hence why I said "at best". Wins a lot of ball in the SANFL and dominates at that level just like Thomarse did. He's at least a bit more skillful....and slightly quicker, though he's still a Moore so he won't exactly be burning blokes off. Don't get me wrong I don't rate him...has all the hallmarks of another list clogging moneyblair special. He pretty much cost Port the 2014 Prelim. too.

Anyway - here's a good overview of his last 4 seasons:

Which isn't really all that useful, given that we might recruit him to play football not raise our kids.

From The Age:-

Port Adelaide have parted ways with former No. 9 draft pick Andrew Moore.

Moore, 24, was shopped around during the trade period, but no deal was done for the 189cm utility, who played 55 games over six years at the Power, after being picked up at the end of 2009.

"I've loved my time at Port Adelaide," Moore, the ninth pick in the 2009 draft, told the Power's website.

"I appreciate the club giving me an opportunity to play AFL footy.

"I've made some great friends for life at the club and I wish the boys every success into the future."

The club's football manager Chris Davies thanked Moore for his efforts at the club.

"Andrew is a terrific person who has given everything he could to the footy club and we wish him all the best with his future," Davies said.

Moore appears likely to land at Richmond, where his brother Kelvin played 87 games between 2004 and 2012.

Port have said they will more changes to their playing list ahead of the first list lodgment deadline next Friday.

The Power brought in Gold Coast forward Charlie Dixon and Melbourne midfielder Jimmy Toumpas during the exchange period.

Strange comment from you claw. Why? Because Moore is everything you say we should look at to upgrade our bottom 6 on our list.

You always say that we should look at big bodied type players playing well in the state leagues but not getting many chances in the AFL.  Well guess what? Former number 9 pick and highly rated junior who has been one of the best players consistently in the SANFL. 190cm and 90 kg and can play in many different positions.  Sure he won't turn the world upside down but according to all your preachings over the years we should look at him.

Why the turn around in philosophy?

Simple i dont back in players i dont think can are any good .And that is it  I dont think he is any good or has much improvement left in him so why would i advocate we look at him.
No change in philosophy at all im allowed to not like players arent i ? even if they are big bodied and have done alright in the twos.
Yep im all for the bigger bodied players who show they have the attributes to play afl both physically and skill wise.  Just because i dont like a player it does not mean that criteria has gone out the window.
Go for the blokes who have not had a real chance at the level. Moore has had 6 years and more opportunity than most.Townsend fits the criteria to a tee despite being on an afl list.

Tigers get Andrew Moore, and don't need more

Jake Niall
The Age
October 29, 2015


In the coming days, the Tigers are expected to announce they have signed delisted free agent Andrew Moore on a modest one-year contract.

As a strong 189-centimetre midfielder, Moore fits Richmond's needs – anyone who watched the Tigers succumb to North in September could see their need for size and grunt around the ball, for someone to provide a chaperone for Trent Cotchin and Brett Deledio.

But as a castaway from Port Adelaide, Moore, pick No.9 in the 2009 national draft, doesn't fit the expectations of those who believed the Tigers needed a big-ticket item in addition to Chris Yarran.

Moore would bring the Richmond post-season haul to three players from other clubs, Yarran having landed safely at Punt Road after a game of trading-deadline chicken between the Tigers and Blues. Jacob Townsend, another sturdy midfielder who struggled for opportunities, was acquired from Greater Western Sydney in exchange for a late pick.

In normal circumstances, picking up Yarran and another pair of cheap, speculative midfielders would be viewed as a fair result, with potential to be better than that in the event that Yarran knuckles down and if Moore or Townsend is successfully recycled in the manner of Anthony Miles, Shaun Grigg and Bachar Houli. Richmond's situation, alas, can't be classified as "normal" because the Tigers have the highest expectations – based on pent-up demand built over three decades – of any Victorian club. They were meant to win a final. They couldn't. They were meant to land Adam Treloar. They didn't.

They flirted with Harley Bennell, an A-grade talent with Z-grade baggage, before deciding discretion was the better part of valour and leaving him to the Dockers.

If the failure to secure another "name" made them less sexy than Geelong or Collingwood, the upshot was the Tigers acted with restraint. While some of this restraint was forced by Treloar's decision to choose another club, there were plenty of observers who expected Richmond to be desperate and dateless, offering pick 12 for anyone they thought might help win an extra game. At the close of trading, they'd secured Yarran and kept pick 12.

Far from representing a trading loss, the Tigers had succeeded in a) recruiting a proven 24-year-old  of considerable talent who can improve their team and b) retaining their first draft pick. This is not as easy as it sounds. Richmond kept their recruiting within a needs-based stuff, rather than lashing out opportunistically – which is never wise.

The external – and even internal – pressure on Richmond to secure another player of substance (not Jake Carlisle) was considerable. Yet, in reality, their need for a trophy recruit was no greater than, say, the Bulldogs.

Richmond's playing list is relatively young for a team that made finals. Deledio, 29 next year, is their oldest elite player and is in near-showroom condition. Time's winged chariot isn't hurrying near Tigerland. They can see how 2016 unfolds and, if there's the right player, have another crack.

It should be noted, too, that no premiership has yet been delivered by the arrival of a million-dollar baby. The biggest names who have helped deliver the grail over the past dozen years are probably Shaun Burgoyne and Brad Ottens.  Hawthorn's success has been in locating players who filled particular roles, such as Josh Gibson, Jack Gunston and Brian Lake.

Whatever Richmond wanted and couldn't get, their post-season could  follow the plan set out by the Rolling Stones: you get what you need.

Our last pick is currently 120 that will be used to upgrade Lambert.
Our next to last pick is currently 106 that will be used on Moore apparently on just a one year deal. I suppose no one can complain about cost.

Im with Diocletian when he says hes been a plodder. I have already said why i would rather we look elsewhere but to be fair some reasons why we maybe should look at him.

Still only 24 and as such should still have some upside.
Comes with good pedigree originally a top 10 pick which suggests as a junior he was a top echelon player with obvious talent.
At 189/87 he is a good size
His best season was 2013. It was servicable imo and it coincided with him playing the inside mid role that the club has him eyeballed for..
He has had his share of injuries osteitis pubis comes to mind with his fair share of niggles.Hence a legit reason why performances could be down a bit.
He has performed really well in the sanfl.
Has really good attributes in his leap and marking for his size. hence why he was a fwd/utility when drafted.As a junior he could find a bit of ball as well.

As YellowandBlackBlood said to me, he ticks quite a few boxes.Big bodied player doing well in the state leagues, i think he has had plenty of opportunities to show what he can do at afl level though.
As stated i dont rate him, well not so much that but dislike aspects of his game and dont see a lot of upside to him and think he has had 6 yrs to show what he can do.
Any way some positives and reasons why they are taking him. Heres hoping he can improve and perform a role for us.

Andrew Moore   

Age: 24       
Club: Port Adelaide (2010-2015)     
Games: 55

2015 summary: Just five senior games but was very good in the SANFL. Frustrated with lack of opportunity.

Pros: Good inside midfielder who has performed well in big games and is entering his prime.

Cons: Disposal lets him down at times and he can drift in and out of games.

Would suit: Richmond

ANDREW MOORE

WE NEVER truly saw the best of Moore at Port Adelaide, which cut the 189cm midfielder from its list last week after playing 55 games over six years. Taken at pick 9 in the 2009 national draft, Moore struggled to cement his spot in Port’s senior side over the past two seasons, with suspension and shoulder injuries not helping his cause. But the first-round pick, who averaged 21 disposals per game in the SANFL this year, could be a valuable asset to a club needing a tall inside midfielder to help out at stoppages. Richmond, which has already met with Moore, could desperately do with someone like him.

a couple or thereabouts each year.
strike rate for top 10 picks goes at around 60-70%

not sure what trading out a player has to do with the odds of a delisted player coming good?

I meant that its rare top 10 picks get delisted, they'll always have trade value. So whilst the stats say he's unlikely to make it, its not really fair to say best case scenario is a poor mans Keplar Bradly.

Andrew Moore's player profile
portadelaidefc.com.au

2010:

    Moore arrived at Alberton as part of a trade which saw Shaun Burgoyne depart to Hawthorn.
    He showed great poise coming out of the backline and promised versatility as a player of the future.
    Despite only playing seven games for the season, he showed much promise as a quality player before osteitis pubis saw him miss that majority of the year.

2011:

    Andrew was again troubled by injury and only managed six games for the year.
    He came to the club with the weight of expectation a first round draft pick carries with them and a big emphasis was put on him by the coaching panel to get his body right.
    A bigger bodied midfielder, he showed glimpses of what he could offer the club in future years.

2012:

    Having started the year in the SANFL, Moore was quick to dominate for the Roosters and found himself called into the Power for the club’s round 10 win over Carlton.
    He showed an ability to win over 20 possessions on a regular basis and cleared the ball well from stoppages.
    A hamstring injury against West Coast saw him sit out the last two games of the year but he certainly played himself into the Power’s starting 22.

2013:

    Moore went back to the SANFL after playing Round 1 against Melbourne and worked his way into form worthy of a recall against Richmond in Round 7.
    He was injured after the Power's Round 9 loss to the Cats but after returning in the Power's win over reigning premiers Sydney he played every game through until the club's semi final loss in September.

2014:

    Moore was one of Port Adelaide’s high-impact players in the SANFL – where he spent around half the season after recovering from an early AC joint injury.
    Injury upon his AFL selection in Round 11 proved another setback, but he managed to string eight elite games together – including three finals – from Round 19 onwards.
    He remains one of the club’s important midfield runners and will set himself for a luckier 2015.

2015:

    Moore is a valuable inside player who wins plenty of first possession, but he has the skills required to deliver on the outside as well. Quality player who will look to put a consistent season together in 2015.

At least it's only one year. Has all the motivation in the world to make it count. Probably better than what pick 88 would have netted us.
The other thing is that it makes it slightly more likely that we will pick Ah Chee rather than another inside mid.  :shh

Tigers snare Moore
richmondfc.com.au 
November 6, 2015 9:48 AM

Richmond has signed former Port Adelaide midfielder Andrew Moore as a free agent.

The Tigers secured the services of the strongly-built Moore on a one-year contract.

Moore, 189cm and 87kg, played 55 games and kicked 18 goals in a six-year career with the Power, with several injury setbacks along the way hampering his progress there.

He had initially been selected by Port Adelaide with its first pick (No. 9 overall) in the 2009 AFL National Draft.

The 24-year-old younger brother of former Richmond defender Kelvin Moore is renowned for his clearance and contested ball prowess, and ability to hit the scoreboard.

“We’re very pleased to be able to bring Andrew into the Richmond Football Club as a free agent,” said the Tigers’ General Manager of Football, Dan Richardson.

Yes, it is very shrewd indeed. They have found a cheap way to add another first round draft pick to the list  :thumbsup

The video of Moore shows he knows where the goals are under pressure and at distance.  I have a strange feeling they might use him as a pressure small forward to rotate through midfield.  Not so much as an in and under bloke.

Mmmm bit tall. Does he play small? Could still play as a small forward if so
I was just trying to think outside the box, that maybe they could use him switching up with Dusty or something now that the bench rotations are dropping.  He did look like he knew where the goals were.  Built like a brick poohouse.  More likely he will be Thomas's replacement sitting in the seconds unless someone comes up broken down.

Andrew Moore ready to continue family tradition at the Tigers, wants to cement spot in midfield

RICHMOND’S latest recruit Andrew Moore says he’s confident his best football is ahead of him, as he prepares to start preseason training at Punt Road.

Speaking to FIVEaa in Adelaide on Monday, Moore said he was determined to cement his position as an inside midfielder at Richmond, alongside the likes of Cotchin, Martin and Miles.

“I’ve had quite an interrupted career thus far due to some injuries,” Moore said.

“I’ve been able to play some decent SANFL football, but I found it quite tough to translate it up to the AFL level.

“It’s going to be a focus for me to try and emulate that form in the AFL.”

After being recruited to Richmond as a delisted free agent, Moore said coach Damien Hardwick allayed some of his nerves with a phone call on Friday.

“He welcomed me to the club and said, ‘you’re here to play AFL football and play that inside role’,” Moore said.

“And that’s where I think I play my best football.”

Moore — who played 55 games with Port Adelaide — continues the family tradition at Richmond.

His older brother, Kelvin, played 87 games in the yellow and black from 2004-2012.

“I’ve obviously got a bit of a soft spot for Richmond because of my brother,” Moore said.

“I spent a bit of time in the rooms after the games (as a teenager).”

Damien believes that as a coach, he has that X factor one needs to be able to
get below average players to play at an average level.
It's all in his favorite book, "The Laws of Mediocrity".
Is there a word for someone who loses sight of something that they never had sight of in
the first place?

So would I!

But nobody rated Jay Schulz and he was a very average player in Melbourne. Bloke clearly just didn't want to play for RFC.

Hopefully a return to VIC does the same for A Moore...

Andrew Moore's interview on 5AA ...

AUDIO: http://www.richmondfc.com.au/video/2015-11-09/moore-on-fiveaa-november-9


* Richmond are a fantastic club and it’s going to be great to be a part of. You see the massive fan base that they have.  The attendances they have in each game are pretty incredible. I can’t wait to get across there to meet most of the guys and get stuck into training.

* I caught up with Damien Hardwick yesterday and said that I’ll start in a couple of weeks.  I’ve just got to get a few things sorted in Adelaide and then I’ll shoot over and hit the track running. He just welcomed me to the Club and said we’ve got you here to play AFL football and to play that inside midfield role.

* I think where I play my best football is as that inside 'bull', I suppose you could say. That contested side of the game. So, I think I can really match it in there playing alongside some of the great players, with Cotchin, Martin, and Miles coming through as well. I’m really excited to play alongside some of those guys.

* I’ve had quite an interrupted career thus far due to injuries and a few other things that have occurred.  I’ve been able to play some decent SANFL football but where I found it quite tough, was to translate that right up to the AFL level. And, to try and match it with the guys that I’m running out there with. You don’t get as many opportunities for where I play my best footy, which is that inside role. It’s going to be a focus for me to try and emulate that SANFL form into the AFL.

* Obviously, I’ve got a bit of a soft spot for Richmond because of my brother as well.  It’s going to be a privilege to play for them. I’ve met a few of the guys through Kelvin and spent a bit of time in the rooms after the games. Hopefully, he’ll be around the Club quite a bit now that I’m there.

Moore interview:

VIDEO: http://www.richmondfc.com.au/video/2015-11-24/moore-excited-for-second-chance

Swift switch

“It happened really quickly with the delisting with Port Adelaide and then, within half an hour, I was speaking with Damien (Hardwick) . . . Very overwhelmed at having another opportunity and very grateful . . .  Really looking forward to meeting a lot of the older guys when they come back (to start pre-season) Friday and getting stuck into the training.”

Inside midfield role

“That is a strength of mine.  I’ve got a big frame and I like to throw it around . . . That’s definitely a spot I want to take charge of through that midfield and really work alongside (Trent) Cotchin and (Dustin) Martin, when he goes through there and (Anthony) Miles, who’s really come a long way.  To work alongside guys like that is going to be something special.”

Andrew Moore on Adelaide's 5AA:

AUDIO: http://www.richmondfc.com.au/video/2016-02-10/andrew-moore-on-fiveaa-february-9th


* Each training session, it’s like a game for me. I’m trying to develop my skills on the inside and I’m working closely with guys like Cotchin, Martin (when he goes through there) and Miles.

* I’ve got to present myself well on the track and I’ve got to prove myself, especially trying to get into the midfield mix. I’ve got a long way to go before I earn the respect of the players. I need to take each training session, each game, if that comes in the NAB Challenge, and need to concentrate closely on week to week.

* It’s been fantastic.  I’ve loved coming home and getting stuck into training over the last couple of months. The Club and the players have been extremely welcoming and I’ve enjoyed my time there so far. I’ve got along really well with Dimma and I’m working really closely with Ladey. I fit in really well and I’m working extremely hard out on the track, trying to build my respect, but also cement myself through the midfield group.

I thought he didn't look out of place yesterday and did a few nice things - but my four year old son was doing his best to distract me from watching the game.

Thoughts anyone ?
