Exceding the expectations i had on him already as a player.

I'd dub him a mini Teague at present as he adds a bit extra steel to the backline always throwing himself into contests and following up with great 2nd efforts.

So far he's been our most impressive backman IMO.

Basically his good form along with Carrazzo's has seen Houlihan get benched.

Which considering how entrenched Houla was last year in our defence is a credit to the newer lads for putting in and having a red hot dip.

He's a compact player, he can play up forward, give drive from defence and tag an opposition player, looks sets for a good year

Would you then look at moving Houlihan up forward again? McGrath provides some good run from the back half, and along with Carrazzo and Lappin, they really are the small running backs at the moment.

pretty handy player.
and a good shot for goal on the run. would almost back him every time.
