The highly-touted utility was forced to bide his time in his maiden season at the Crows, playing seven games after being taken with Pick 8 in the 2023 draft.
Curtin's size and frame see him feature on all lines, but Adelaide initially opted to play him in a defensive post, utilising his skills and aerial capabilities.
