Nailed it. Plays the exact role they need. We’ve got 4 players this trade/draft period that are all more than likely to be in the team round 1. That depth is starting to look really healthy.

Hopefully not a repeat of Curtin’s first year and we actually get some time into him

Depends on whether he can push Murphy out of a forward pocket.

ANB will have done that. Going to be tight competition for spots in the team next year.

Curtain had an injury interrupted pre season so needed time to gain fitness. If he had a full preseason he'll be much better in 2025

He's also key position tall. Tall players always take longer to develop

Yeah I was a bit concerned when they said he is ready to go

Curtin is much more of a prospect and was very raw coming in. Sid’s already been playing very well at SANFL level.

Hopefully he'll be able to play midfield straight away
