Like Eli Templeton in that clip. Showed he knows where to collect the ball and how to distribute. Keep an eye on this kid. I don't think he will stay a rookie too long. :mrgreen:

Would be cool if shaggy became a big bodied midfielder.

I think he has some genuine talent - maybe needs some self belief and a bigger tank.

“Training today was pretty full on. Then we got about half an hour for our ice-baths and lunch, then straight to the craft, then weights and just finished a defensive meeting.”

What does he mean " straight to the craft"?

I rate Shenton on his VFL form too. He was outstanding once he went back and was going better than a lot of senior listed players. He has some thing about him. He looks scarily like Ash Barty with a beard though.
