37 games in 3 years. medium regular. only 21 though.

lyon didnt rate him so thats a good sign for him.

I never heard Lyon didnt rate him. Who told you that Con? RL rated Rooy and Lenny as 2 of the best footballers he had seen. Would have thought that was a good sign.

Lyon also rated Mini a d Eddy. Don't take Lyon's ratings too seriously.

He was a walk up under Mark Harvey, he got put aside once Ross arrived. Broughton was another who Ross obviously rated different to Harvey.

27 possessions- outstanding effort. If he keeps it up Goddard won't hurt so much.

Lyon didnt rate anyone under 23 at the Saints except Eddy and Mcqualter.
And Dylan played most of his games at Freo under Harvey. Only played a handful under RL. So I think games played tells you RL didnt rate Dylan.

Been watching him closely and I am very impressed. He is very composed in contested ball situations and seems to find space even though he isn't particularly fast.

Has anyone thought that Dylan's form might have something to do with being content with his life outside football. I think he has a partner/wife (is she from Frankston too?) and a child, he's a Frankston boy who has come home. These aspects may have helped his footy !!


NEW scarf signature (hopefully with correct spelling) will be here as soon as it arrives !!
