Moir was taken by Carlton with pick 29 in the 2023 AFL draft.[7] He made his debut in round 23 of the 2024 AFL season.[8] Starting the game as the sub, he came onto the ground in the final quarter, kicking an unlikely goal out of mid-air which won him a nomination for the 2024 AFL goal of the year.[9]

In round 19 of the 2025 AFL season Moir kicked four goals to earn himself a nomination for the 2025 AFL rising star.[10][11]

In July of 2025, Moir signed a two-year contract extension to the end of 2027.[12]
