George is powerful forward that can play through the midfield.

He spoke with Cal Twomey (AFL.com.au) prior to the AFL Draft.

“The main position I want to play is that mid-forward role, so spending time in the forward line but going through the midfield and showing my traits there,” George said.

George underwent surgery on his left knee late in 2022 after rupturing his ACL.

His long term prospects could vary, his role as a forward only could limit his fantasy scoring output but an increase in midfield usage could provide an opportunity for a decent fantasy scoring rate.
