The defensive playmaker had a standout season in the VFL with Collingwood and was rewarded with the club's best and fairest award. The 22-year-old, who possesses a booming left foot and aerial prowess, was also selected in the past two VFL teams of the year. Standing at 189cm and 89kg, Hore has caught recruiters' eyes with his ability to run and carry and read the play.

    Last time I saw someone with the surname Hore run across the MCG it ended in tears

    Unfortunate name, but that left kick looks laser like.

    Oh God another Magpie that they did not want.

    They always end in tears at the Dees.

    Yes, first job for the fitness and conditioning team is to run him through the sheep dip to disinfect him.  But as he has only been at their VFL side, the filth is probably not completely engrained just yet.

    Not sure they make a Dip strong enough for that task  RG.

    Great prospect who the dees have been tracking for 3 years now. They were so close to selecting him last year but had no rookie spots.

    He’s going to be in the queue to get on the park in Dees backline?

    When will the annual "nicknames for the new draftees" thread be up and running?  Hope mods will have their censor fingers ready, especially when the likes of uncle @Bitter but optimistic gets amongst it.

    I always felt that a footy club needed a good Hore involved in some capacity...

    Really like him, whenever I've seen Pies VFL he's been solid as a rock. 

    For all the talk of 'how will he get a game in our backline' the reality is we had Fritsch, Lewis and a raw Joel Smith play half back in the finals. Not to mention the number of games Wagner and Vince played during the year!

    Now we don't have to rush Lever back in round 1, Fritsch can go to a half forward or wing spot that really suits his game. Joel Smith can be pushed for a spot. Lewis can get in the bin.

    We seem to have loaded up on mids and defenders with our trading and draft.

    I still think we will rookie an experienced ruck.

    To me we are still light on for key forwards and I think we might try to make Petty one.  Petty like May, played forward as a junior.

    Reminds me a little bit of Jeremy Howe, those hands.

    I trust Taylor absolutely on this. Seems like a likely lad.

    That said, I'm interested to know why Collingwood has seemingly overlooked him (2 successive VFL B&Fs) given that their defensive stocks are not as good as ours.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
