To me it is no surprise of Dal's numbers in the midfield this year.
I have always thought that Dal's class was better surved in the middle and forward of the ball.
The great Allen Jeans was once asked where he would he play Dal in one of his rare interviews on radio,his response was Quote"A player that posess's those footskills and has time and class to burn should always be played forward of the ball".
Interesting mindset that Ross has mainly played him in defence and only played him in the middle since the loss of Lenny.

Good point Spert,i think it gives you a good insight into the different mindsets of one who is a legend coach and the other who is in the top three coaches in the AFL.
We aren't blessed by footskill in the backline maybe that's why Ross robs Peter to pay Paul with Dal,but our current form is no coincidence and Dal must stay in the middle.
