Height: 189.3cm
Weight: 80.1kg
Style: Bulldozer running medium HBF/utility
Preferred Foot: Right
Potential: 5.5-6.5/10
Strengths
> Excellent engine – mid to low 14s beep test and mid to high 10s 3km
> Strong and desperate attack on the footy– crunches packs and loves to throw his body around – courageous will go back with the flight off the ball
> Hard hitting tackler
> Strong body
Weaknesses
> Straight ahead/tunnel vision player – lacks vision and awareness
> So-so disposal – can kick long, but has poor control over weighting – DM isn’t great either (see above)
> Lacks mobility
> Lacks pace off the mark and evasiveness – 2nd to the ball alot – skinfolds are very good so not much scope to improve?
> Doesn’t find enough of the footy
> What role? Doesn’t seem to have any one position that suits him
Other
> Has a big running VJ – haven’t seen it evident on-field
> Significant reach advantage for his height
Overall
I see very little upside with Slattery – very much an old fashioned player in that he lacks athleticism and plays in straight lines but hits the ball and man hard without offering much else. I can’t see him being more than a squad player.
