His strengths are reading the play in the air, agile and has a good fitness base.
Speed and kicking average. Good build at 189cm
Also did a number on Miers ( was picked up by Geelong late in the draft )
Supposedly very dedicated to getting the best out of himself.

Good game awareness, seemingly neat enough kick and can take a grab. Could do worse. Welcome

Good luck to the kid but, seriously, how many mid sized HBF do we frigging need?
I'd love to have half as many spare KPP.

dunno, I think this guy plays on the small forwards in the back line with the capacity to play tall. I was interested in the comments o his tank. seems like he could also be used as a run with lockdown player. Might be the Greenwood understudy.

Sounds like he could be handy we need another pacy backman.

I noticed Appleby in the VFL game vs North Ballarat early this year. He was their only effective backman in a 80+ point win for the VFL Pies, and kept Kayle goalless. Could be a great pickup!

Likened to Toovey in his shut down ability and versatility. Better kick.
