TOPIC:

He can play tall or short. Has good skills. It seemed that Sydney played him in a forward pocket. He will kick goals.
185/70 19yo Definitely first 22 IMO.

This is good news for both the Club and Taylor.
He is at home near his family and I think we have the resources to have an important influence on him.
he will be a very handy addition to our forward line and increases our depth further.
Welcome back to where you belong Elijah.

Or would he be best suited to using his skills coming off half back like Davis or Jetta? That's assuming, of course, that he will get a league game at all, but hopefully he'll be out to impress. As others have said, he's a one point player, so if nothing else he will add to our depth at little cost.

Goal kicker with good hands and quick on his feet. Should have stints in the midfield as well. I think what will adhere him to his team mates and AFL scouts is doing the team things and not trying to take Mark of the year or kick goal of the year.

if he does adhere himself then your stuck with him but if he endears himself well he will be more beloved by his team mates.

Very true Chaddy. The very fact that he has returned to us suggests that he has committed to the club and the club to him. He has a wonderful opportunity to redeem himself with help of his family and friends together with all those around him at the club whose influence will be important as he pursues an eventual return to the elite level of the game.

Great that he’s back at Perth. But no other club would touch him- VFL or WAFL. Hopefully he has a great season and gets everything back on track

I am disappointed about losing Loersch for the season.
It does however open up opportunities initially maybe for Jordan Reid and also for Jaiden Hunter.

There should be an even spread of goal kickers as long as we are producing plenty I don't care who kicks them.

Good to see any local talent come back to the comp and especially their club of origin.....definitely a talent....sounds like Perth have some good people at the club, if the kid wants it then the ball is well and truly in his court.

Correct DD.
Our recruiting would suggest that we are going to have a very strong midfield.
So should get plenty of the ball.
And we have also added some elite kicking in the midfield.
Plenty to look forward to.

My intel informs me that The Birdman has arrived but is in quarantine. Hopefully he has a reasonable level of fitness with several weeks to catch up with the squad.
