Is being played in a more damaging position. Is reaping the benefits.
Agreed. I feel like for too long we were intent on getting talented youngsters into a defensive position. I know the logic: teach them that side of the game, it's needed at AFL level. But I feel like guys such as McDonald and Atley just need to be wound up and let rip sometimes.

A little bit of Schwatta. That long left boot coming off the wing.

I always ask myself which current players would have fit in with the 90s (I know it's a totally different game), but Pagan would have loved this bloke.
Would have asked him to trim those sideburns.

In the Freo game he slipped over twice in the last minute at crucial contests leading to their last goal but recently he has been instrumental in sealing games for us in the last quarter.

That is a big turn around and he deserves credit for it.

It shows how important he can be for this side.

Well done young fella.

I'd also love to see him take on Dusty this weekend. Not necessarily tagging but trying to take him on at the contests. I reckon he might be up for it.
