Pass, will upgrade to him when he presents some value $80k cheaper in the middle of the season.

The brain fades and then suspensions are the worry for me. Should have got more weeks especially for the stupidity that he displayed pushing Morris into the post.

Has massive potential but the fact that he acts like a 4 year old is the worry. I did get him as an upgrade target this year but missing weeks killed my team. Not for me next year to start, maybe as an upgrade target

Definitely one to watch and a possible upgrade target. Not sure how Tippett leaving will affect him

Huge season in 2013 a must have, but agree with a lot of the comments above, upgrade.

Key forwards are all so up and down in scoring, there will always be the opportunity to get them on a down curve.

still i reckon he will smash out a 100+ average with ease.

THIS IS MY 2500 POST
Fittingly I thought I would share my movement into four stars with the great man himself!

The man I have followed since he kicked the 7 goals for Broken Hill A's when he was signed to Adelaide as the biggest steal in history, a NSW schools scholarship draft pick 8)

Taylor regularly kicked bags upon bags of goals for Norwood when spud Craig felt like losing games so keeping him out of the side, Tex finally got the confidence needed from the new messiah Brenton Sanderson. When the great man is left to "do his thing" he is unstoppable! Who say the Demons game in Round 22? When he took 16 marks, mostly contested and many up field?

These games like the Melbourne game will become regular for Taylor in the future, Tex bagged 63 goals in 2012 but missed 6 games, i'm tipping he will play true centre half forward, roming up the ground. The key thing about the great man is his kicking, the most natural kick I think i've ever seen, this makes him not only Super Coach gold but a leathel weapon roaming up the field, taking contested marks and picking out team mates, when he's not donging goals from 60

Taylor was still immiture in 012, silly indiscretions. Trust me here, those suspentions had to happen! Craig wanted him to become physical, chase and tackle, well Tex went over board thinking that's what he had to do! Well when he came back from the second suspention, I saw a few times where he thought about "dumping" a guy in a tackle, but he has learnt! He checked himself and now he knows what and how to assert himself phyically, for the good of Adelaide ;D

Leave the great man out of your Super Coach at your peril! Tex will go 110-115 mark my words, the inconsistancy will become consistant! Have you seen the guy lately? He's an adonis! The strogest man at the club, including Truck, will just dominate, will take one mighty defencive effort to shelve the great man, he will just go from strength to strength and lead Adelaide to a third Premiership 8)

Lol that was fun writing, well sure i'm bias but the great Tex is beautiful to watch, sit back and enjoy the ride!

tbagrocks - mate you are clearly sold here!!

nah i remember when he got signed they were calling him the messiah by memory!!

i think he is a jet but i just gotta say i wouldn't call him the best natural kick - thats a HUGE statement. seems a great shot at goal don't get me wong. and i think u gotta pick this guy and have him in your team.

but straight off the bat aker was an awsome kick, basically had a chain from his hand to his foot, never really shanked a kick! but we could detbate kicking all day!

key positions are a little bit iffy to start with, but i think he will improve even with the loss of tippet. big sauce jacobs giving that crows midfield the pill  and they will slam it down his throat. i'm inclined to say upgrade just because his role.

I thought Porps was? Or is that just for the bench press?

Best natural kick you have ever seen? Once I read this, I knew you were taking the piss.

Lol was I? ;) you could blind fold the guy and he would still stroll in and dong a punt through the posts from 60!

Not at the price, he's worth it, just can't afford it. For a mere $28,400 more I get Ryder who can interchange between ruck and forward with Cox. Will definitely be in come byetime. Cheers.

Take him over Franklin/SJ/Rocky  ;) I will guarantee he matches (close enough to Buddy at least) these three in scoring 8)

You all heard me! Guarantee!

I was waiting for his break out year, sure I had him last year and he kicked 63 goals, he's now a monstor and the strongest at the club, his confidence from whad he did in 2012 is huge and get ready for the Taylor Walker show!

P.s he's only just begining ;) :) :D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D 8)
