He’s not a key forward - not big enough

He’s not a hybrid - not agile enough

He’s a medium kick mark player. Bit like Membrey but not as powerful.
Looks a forward to me, maybe at FF while Max, who I don't see as a key position forward, plays further up the forward 50 where I think his athleticism would be much more effective, as he is not a good body on body player sitting at FF. Sharman looks more likely to take a pack mark or a screamer than say Owens in contests in the forward half and has better goal sense and a better kick. I still see Owens as a future CHB but that's another story.

Ridiculous comment.

He's bigger than many current successful key forwards.


All posters are equal, but some posters are more equal than others.

He’s 193cm
85-90kg

Which Key Forwards are that size in the AFL

Closest would be Mihocek and Langford
Both would be around the 193/95 mark

I think perhaps Cooper could play as a Third?

But imagine him lining up at FF on Sam Taylor 198cm
Or Harris Andrews 200cm or Sam Collins 100kg or Jacob Weitering 196/100

He is not a power forward even at VFL level
