Great addition and as mentioned has to go down as a bargain recruit of the year. I need a piece of that humble pie.
So now we need to work out how to get his possessions up. Imagine the damage he could inflict...
I reckon if Rohan gets 12 and Gaz gets 15+ we win most of those games :)

I didn't think he was capable of doing the hard stuff.When we have needed him he has stood tall in a couple of games now,he has that will to win,I'll eat all that pie.
I think we need to have a look at it ..years end... right now he has proven it a good use of P61 .. but if he can stay fit he could become a lot more like his original draft pick. Its all about staying fit.

He doesn’t need to get his possessions up. 12 touches for 4 goals is damn well damaging enough. Hell i’d take 4 possessions for 4 goals from him. He doesn’t need high possessions to be damaging.

One of the most talented players in the competition. He's almost quicker than everyone else. He's powerful, has elite skill, can play as a key forward or as a small, is a tackling machine who can rundown defenders from anywhere and has a subliminal right foot. He's almost the perfect specimen for the modern day player.

His only downside is he doesn't read the play well enough to be a mid which is why he'll never be a big possession winner and it's the only reason he isn't, or won't ever be considered an elite player. And he hasn't been able to get any continuity to build consistency.

I was over the moon when we selected him because I knew he'd make our forward half so much stronger and it's been a major weakness of ours over the last few seasons. He's a really hard match-up for the opposition.

The opposition are going to put more time into him now which is his next hurdle. It'll also allow a bit more freedom for one or two others.

He needs to build on this now. I think he can become the player his #6 draft selection justifies.

Nice Garrrry!
Yeah Nakkers you were stout on this from the get go - and he may even have exceeded your expectation. But yeah well above what I thought he'd bring to this point.

I think Kingy said something like 43 touches for 11 goals.
Thats insane conversion per touch. He grabbed at a hammy I thought late on Monday but he played it out so must not have been too bad.
Long may the 10 possie 4 goal games continue.

I saw him clutch at the hammy and my head dropped. He looked a little despondent on the bench too. He came back on so it must have just been cramp.

The commentators wanted it to be a hammy,Derm wanted Hawkins suspended and the other FW wanted the miracle Hawthorn come back,we didn't have to many friends among those dick heads.

Actually, I would have thought most Cats fans are now quite conscious of the capabilities of his right foot.
