How was his kicking rated pre-draft?

I don’t love his technique (which is to say nothing of the outcome).

Rookie me central had both his finishing and kicking as weaknesses: * Rhys Unwin Draft Profile - Aussie Rules Rookie Me Central (formerly AFL Draft Central)*

Noober also mentioned kicking as a weakness

SEN’s 2024 AFL full Phantom Draft

By Nathan Sepe

The 2024 AFL National Draft is right around the corner, stacked with more talent than we have seen in years.
…
Pick 55. (North Melbourne) – Rhys Unwin
GWV Rebels/Vic Country – FWD/MID, 179cm

Unwin produces some of the best speed for a smaller forward, crafty with his ball use, looking to get involved further up the ground and impact with his swift decision-making and vision to progress the footy inside 50, still with a lot of upside.

Rhys Unwin. Thoughts? Did well in the draft combine and shapes as an annoying small forward at AFL level.

I like him but I think he’s a later pick. If we’re only using those first three that we have next and then matching on Nguyen late… he might not fit into where we’re drafting.

He’s pretty raw with his skills, kicking isnt great. Super competitive though and nice athletic profile.

Rhys Unwin. Thoughts?

Well worth a look. Has some exciting qualities
