afl footy draft profiles & mock draft

Matthew Quinton

November 21st, 2007

Matthew Quinton – ???
Ht: 192 cm Wt: 84 kg

Junior position – Key Position

AFL position – Key Position/ Tall Defender

Athletic, tallish defender who looks to have a fair amount of development left in him. Little fuss about his game and fulfils a task each week pretty well.
Strengths: Athleticism and a frame that looks like it could develop into an AFL sized body. Good in the air and a disciplined defender.
Weaknesses: Kicking needs to improve- technique a little clumsy. Doesn’t have a lot of flair to his game- I would like to see him utilise his athleticism more and run off his opponents.

Question marks:

Draft Prediction: 55+/rookie/undrafted.
Stats: TAC 2007. From 15 games Quinton had 81 effective and 35 ineffective kicks. He averaged approximately 11 disposals per game. He had 21 contested and 21 uncontested marks which illustrates his strength in the air and also he general lack of presentation during a game.
