moore played his first football of 2018 in a six-club aflx exhibition tournament alongside many of richmond's younger players. following that he was named as an emergency for the club's first official pre-season match before earning selection in the club's second and final match of that tournament two weeks later. moore played in only the second half of that match against but still managed to score two goals, showing his potential to play as a second tall-forward alongside jack riewoldt come the start of the season-proper. he was ultimately unselected for senior football in round 1, but was named as an emergency for that season-opening match against . moore would continue to wait for an afl berth through the months of march and april, with reserves coach craig mcrae noting his "impressive development" and saying he "wouldn't be far off an afl opportunity" following a two-goal vfl match in early april. though it would take a further six weeks, that opportunity came in round 10, when moore was selected for his first afl match since round 23, 2016. moore was given little opportunity to ease into that match however, as a concussion sustained early in the match saw teammate jack riewoldt play only the opening five minutes of the match and moore tasked with considerable responsibility as the team's only remaining tall forward. moore's performance was strong in riewoldt's absence, taking six marks, kicking three behinds but failing to score a goal. in the dreamtime at the 'g match against the following week, he kicked two goals while adding another three behinds, in a performance that "afl media" said outshone the returned riewoldt. an eight disposal and goalless game in round 12 however, would see moore's afl run ended as he was dropped back to vfl level. he was immediately prolific at that level, kicking a bag of five goals during a match against the northern blues in late june. that performance and good form over the following two weeks saw moore earn an afl recall for a match against in round 16. he kicked two goals in that match before going goalless in rounds 17 and 18 and being subsequently dropped back to vfl level ahead of round 19. for the second time that season he responded to an afl omission by bagging five goals at vfl level. on that occasion it came along with 19 disposals and 12 marks in what development coach paul griffiths called moore's best game for richmond at either level in his three years at the club. despite that performance, moore would not be recalled to senior football and would instead spend the remainder of the year with the club's reserves side in the vfl. there he played a contributing role in each of the team's two finals matches, including kicking two goals in the knock-out semi-final loss to the reserves. moore finished the season having played six matches for four goals at afl level. he also added 26 goals across 14 matches at vfl level that saw him place second at the club behind small forward tyson stengle.
