We might and might being the keyword.

To me he is going to be a clever somewhat flaky flanker who won't get enough of the ball to show his above average skills.

Yes a positive from tonight, reminds me of Ray when he marks overhead...seems completely out of it, but has a good reach

Moves well and is a good size. He shut down one of the better endurance players in the comp. He may have found his niche.

I liked his last quarter. He won a couple of crucial contests.

Dropped 2 totally uncontessted overhead marks that I can remember, there may have been more. Apart from that he was ok.

Dropped a couple of marks wich he should have taken early on but seemed to deal with the pace of game and had a cool head under pressure

Needs more bulk as do most of our youngsters but definitely a plus re the way he went about it

Would have liked to have seen him in the side before round 11. Looks decent, we need to see him for a few games…

A GOP

Like Maister, Curran, Mini, Eddy and all those types.... Very good VFL.... OK at AFK level....

He could be a role player, very versatile.... He is more confident and assured in the VFL...

Looked fairly confident and assured tonight whilst doing an absolute demolition job on a former no 3 draft pick

Disagree. Unlike those players, he has skill, smarts and composure. Can play at either end to good effect as well. His stats may look GOP-like, but he is a very classy, effective player.

Set up one nice goal... But that play would be expected from any footballer at VFL standard or better

Fumbled the ball a bit... Did a great job defensively on Gaff...

He's not bad

Wouldn't say he is slow burnt off gaff at one stage. Remember he had a tagging role not a license to roam. Will get better if given the time to be an afl footballer as saad is given.

Dunell should be a regular...... I think he is in our best 22 and I'm astounded that it's taken so long for him to get a game this year.

he never consistently dominated the VFL so he should have been cut by now as certain forumites will tell you

Good game today tagging Gaff and still contributed offensively.
