Sydney supporters were saying the same thing about Dawson, yet he came home.
We arnt just trying to convince Daniel to stay, we are also needing to convince his GF to stay.
WAGs are the biggest influence on where a player ends up going.

At this age? Don't agree, when/if she has kids at him at some point yes possibly. But not now.

But were there any beef Wellington's as Alex may need to rise again from death.

Wing is his spot. Starting to come into his own there. Perfect for us as its a position we lack quality in.

I love the kid and this may change, but my only concern is he seems like he has such a timid nature. Sort of sits back, try's to get the odd arm or hand into a contest when the balls bouncing around. He has the size, skill and smarts to use his body but I feel like he's just a bit bruise free. Hopefully he gets comfortable in his body and gets more confidence to throw himself around a bit.
That's how to play outside on the wing...
He’s so close to realising he can blow a game open. And a little bit of extra aggression could help that.
Yeah there were a couple of times last night where I think his team mates saw he was a lot bigger than those around him and kicked it in his direction. He had the sit (and size) to fly into the pack, but just didn't. He can do it 1v1 easily, needs a bit more confidence in pack situations.
I remember TT being a bit timid early on in pack situations too.
Yep, good point. I’ve always said it’s all mental for him. I agree he’s got a knack of sitting back and waiting for others to go in. I think that’s partly from over-coaching and him being concerned of holding structure (dare I say, keeping shape) but I’m confident that’ll evolve in time.

I agree with this, lacking a bit of urgency or something. He’s got quite a laconic style, I suspect this will change once he gets more games under his belt.

He's going to be an absolute ripper.
Dan is only 20, he's 6ft 5 and has just played his 20th game, 5 of which were as a substitute.
We need to continue to pump games into him.
In his last 4 games, he's had 14, 16, 14, 12 disposals.
I'm looking forward to what he will become after 1 or 2 more pre-seasons of weights, diet and cardio.

I think so too. Get his tank going and he will be unstoppable.
Seems perfect timing that when he’s ready to go full time into the midfield, it’s prob right around the time we will likely look at slowly transitioning Dawson out of there.
I understand the role, but there are moments when you need to go and win your own ball.

The last month has been exactly what I was wanting when I was having a big of a grizzle in April-May. Playing on the wing - a defined role, with the opportunity to run and get involved has been exactly what he needed and he has thrived.
