From viewing the VFL games online, this kid looks to move well in traffic and has shown himself to be a clean user of the ball, by hand or his right foot, and runs all day. The signs are promising, really like what I've seen.

Example at the 12.10 mark of the 1st qtr
https://www.collingwoodfc.com.au/video/ ... gNames=vfl

Murley is built like a milk arrowroot at 178cm and 70kg, so he'll need a couple of good pre-seasons to add another 10kg to his frame in order to compete at AFL level.
He was an important member of the talented South Australian Under 16 side in 2019, claiming All Australian honours alongside Jason Horne-Francis.

All going well, he develops as an upgrade on Bianco and Calamity Brown and into something like Steele Sidebottom who came in at 182cm / 79kg, and is now 184cm / 85kg.

And seeing he has 'Cooper' in his name, if he makes it, I'd love him to get the Nickname Strop, after one of our gutsiest former players in Ian "Strop" Cooper.

Doubt he get a Game this Year and probably the most likely at the Moment to be De-Listed at Season 2023 End

No Dave, it’s your opinion that you think is the truth. Others may disagree.

Ginni’s off the rookie list too, promoted to the main list.

it is true though to say it is does not bode well to be demoted to the rookie list after a year.

They why we De-Listed Murley and Put him on the Rookie List with 1 year left on his 1st Contract?
