Good to hear. For those who have seen him regularly, what do you give his chances of playing senior footy next year and what exact sort of role does he play/what are his strengths? Who in the AFL does he most resemble, playing style wise?

I have seen him a couple of times at sandy

and he is a tough nuggety sort of player who could end up playing in any pocket of the ground

if I remember correctly, he was drafted as mid-fielder

But the times I saw him play he was playing in the forward 50 (Very strong body-but a little too short and not super speedy)

His kicking is average in my opinion, but I'm sure he will be working on that

Reminds me of andrew McQualter with a touch of Steve Baker

I see him being a small shutdown defender in the AFL

Sounds like he may have Geary ahead of him for that sort of role, then. And neither may be ideal, as you really want someone with great kicking skills playing as a "small" in the backline, a la Leon Davis, Chris Yarran, Clint Jones ( :wink: :lol: ).
