Medium forward with excellent natural leap for the ball, Murphy is a strong overhead and is a clean mark out in front. An agile and versatile type with good goal sense, Muprhy was a prolific goal scorer at Brighton Grammar before playing for the Dragons. Outstanding cricketer having represented Victoria at underage level. Ran the 2km time trial in 6:21 at the Combine, which placed him among the best performers.

- Murphy was an elite young cricketer, before opting to pursue an AFL career.
What they say
Hes a bit of a loveable larrikin that comes from cricket. He can play forward and back as a third tall and potentially if he builds up his tank, he can push into midfield with his athleticism. His endurance, agility and recovery are very good and hes really aware of those around him. I think hes a natural defender who can go forward and he gets in the right spots,Ryan OConnor (Sandringham Dragons Talent manager), Inside Football, November 2017
Would have preferred a KPP but unfortunately all the good KPP's are gone by the time we get to our pick 38. Still Murphy is a forward and a good mark and we were purported to be in to him before the draft, so as expected I guess.
