Rate a Tiger's year - 40. Kel Moore?

[Coach]

Not consistent enough but still a poo load better than Thursty and McGuane. Been hoping he'd reproduce his 2008 form for a while now.

Gave him a 6.

[mat073]

I thought that during our "purple patch" Kel Moore was playing at the same level he was during the 2008 season.

When fit,Kel is clearly a level above Thursty & McGuane however Kelvin still had some ordinary games in 2010.

Trade bait.

Trade Bait?
I think it would be very dangerous to trade our best tall defender when all of his understudies still have big questions over them, i.e. Gourdis and his disposal.
Maguantanamo Bay and Thirsty Slapper are trade bait, yes. But if we lose Moore, our defence could go to complete poo.

His year wasnt great, but it wasnt bad, and he is still easily our best KPD.

I gave him a seven.

[Tigermonk]

gave him a 4 cause he dropped right off this year. another bad year & he be out the door playing for Omeo / Benambra

[Chuck17]

If only we had a quality defender like Harry O, then we would be set

[eliminator]

Would give him a six. Was very good on occasions but agree can be inconsistent. Apart from Newman was our best defender.  Would not get rid of him. Would get rid of McGuane. Would keep Thursfield. Thursfield is the best spolier in the team

[Infamy]

8th in the B&F behind Cotchin means the coaches must have thought he was doing something right
Especially when you consider McGuane & Thursfield came in 18th & 19th

3.5

tried to develop into more of a rebounder type this season which he isnt a smart enough footballer to do well. Constantly got caught out in no mans land ie not close enough to his opponent and got exposed a lot.

Moore is at his best playing as a KPD even if he is a bit undersized for it. He was bulkier in 2008 and could keep his feet against the big guys, and was quicker than them when it hit the ground. He then trimmed down in 09 to play a more rebounding role and has never been the same since.

We can do without 1 or 2 of him, McGuane or Thursfiled, take your pick, i don't mind bc i think all 3 have had plenty of chances and are not up to scratch.

disagree with this. has never been above 86kg  like mcguane and thursfield has always been undersized to play kp.
unlike thursfield and mcguane he has genuine pace agility and neat skills. he should be playing as a genuine rebounder whos primary role is to give his other tall backs a chop out.imo we certainly need to persevere with him in the role.
 i do agree we can do without 1 or two of the three i just think moore has more attributes and is much more rounded than the other two.

thought his 2010 a marked improvement on 09 which was filled with niggles. would give him somewhere around 6 or 7 out of 10.

[the claw]

while on our backs i reckon we need to structure up thus.

b; moore 190/86  gourdis 193/93  newman 183/84/tambling 180 80
hb; deledio 188/88  post 195/95  dea 186/83

For what its worth , I dont rate Harry O.
Can be exposed if you can get the right  match up.
You need to get Harry O back to the goal square.
Is deficent overhead.
Opposition clubs play into his hands by letting him "'peel off ""down the ground, thus he kills you on the rebound., as your players chase kicks and push through the corrdior.
Example I think to mind for a similar player is Sam Fisher when he played us, we got the match up we wanted and Sam had to go back to the goal square with Jack Riewoldt, guess what, Jack kicked 7

He's a damn sight better than Andrew Raines Jackie.

I'd have Harry in our team any day of the week.

[nahadaman]

Hey Tiger Monk,
Do you know of Omeo/Benambra?
I played for them when I was living up there for a couple yrs.
Spin out to hear you speak of them, even if its taking the pee..lol

[Willy]

my old man used to own a Hotel up that way called the Blue Duck.
i used to go and watch Omeo/Benambra

Yeah your right.

What about some other over rated hack Collingwood defender.

I am just trying to keep the dual membership people happy.
