Obviously gone at the end of the year.

Seemingly hated by his last two coaches as evidenced by him being dropped despite posting good offensive numbers.

Doesn't like to defend, but I guess none of the top midfielders do, problem is he can't handle a tag and sometimes just doesn't come to play and has stinkers unlike other unaccountable top midfielders who make it worth it by always showing up.

Very powerful player who if coached right could be a star.

Would suit maybe a Fremantle or Port. Port's only quality outside run is Polec and there is some GC alumni down there. Fremantle have some also, and Ross Lyon if he doesn't get sacked could get him in line. Wouldn't get tagged too much down there either with both the Hill's probably taking any outside negating attention.
 
got tagged in round 3 then pumps out 26 touches againt a flying eagles team then bye bye! even playing holman over him yikes!

would be great at a team like gws.or swans. 3rd round pick at best to.

Don't think he would be great at the Giants he is a very talented player who doesn't like to run both ways.
 
Been a huge disappointment to Suns ,has plenty of natural ability but lacks in lots of areas ( tackling chasing defending poor disposal)
He will be 28 next year,may produce under a strong coach but has never shown any inclination to change bad habits.
Probable 3rd pick,not worth any more.
 
Agree with the Dees poster above that he could suit our midfield at the right price.

Suns fans - any insight as to why he can't get a game? Is it just defensive efforts?

Mostly defensive efforts , but if you got Midfield that willing to compensated his deficiency he should be good.

They should have traded him last year (assuming he was willing) his trade value will be less than it was if he spends the year in the NEAFL.
I think Dew want to see whether he is coachable regarding defensive effort . His Attacking game was pretty good last year .
 
Understand opposition supporters watching on TV and believing he has exceptional talent.
Its only when you watch him live over time that you see the hard things he does not do on
the field.
Would be close to being one of the most frustrating footballers ive seen in over 50 years of
following AFL ,he does have some good points BUT
From all reports very very difficult to coach.
Three coaches have tried but failed to get the best out of him.
Was not traded last year because no club would pay anywhere near the price Suns were paying.
Unfortunately his value has dropped significantly.(28 in Nov)
