Going by the GCS game where Dunstan ( 15 touches @ 66.7%) sat out a fair chunk of the last quarter, Clark (17 @ 82.4%) and Steele (21 @ 71.4%) on the ground in the guts in the last with Armitage (25 touches @ 64%), Ross (33 @ 72.7), Steven (28 @67.9%), Billings (27 @ 67.7%) and Sinclair (25 @ 60%)
Reality is he is our 8th best mid right now.
Even if we go off his full season and you are right he is about line ball with Steele at 3 or 4 it's in the worst midfield in the competition, when the game was being won in the last quarter against GCS, he was behind Clarke and Steele in the eyes of the coach. He may be limited by his shoulders but if he is fit he is sliding down the list.
