Just wondering what this bloke has to do to get at worst, a rookie spot on the list.
Been following him since he came over from Fremantle , and honestly ha hasn't put a foot wrong.
He is always in the best players for the VFL team , and i reckon he would not only step up to the job, but could and would do well.

Hasn't his biggest knock been the extra weight he carries?

He looks to have lost a few kg from last year. He looked good on Saturday and certainly has the size to play AFL, not sure he would be capable of covering the ground required of a AFL mid though.

He has certainly stood out and is a real monster build - I would rookie on what I've seen this year for sure ....

 

[RobsJourney]

Honestly, he is a huge competitor and is more often in the bests than some of our frequent VFL-playing AFL listed players....

Can't hurt to rookie him at worst.. he isn't slow and is a big solid body.

 

[Bojangles17]

Haven't watched him directly , sounds a bit like townso

 

[Lsta062]

At the very least he is a tall mid at 188 cm. I would give him a shot as we need better midfield depth. Still 23 years old too.

No.

A bloke who couldnt get a game at freo last year and is average to ok in the VFL, no thanks, would rather give it to a kid who may become a player, rather than someone who already hasn't

 

[SumTingWong]

He's a terrible kick. Absolutely not.

Ummmmmm he was playing for us last year. Sorry, but if you are going to criticize a player, you should actually get your facts right.
Only got one game with Freo , the last in 2015 and won the B&F at Peel thunder that year.

 

[juss]

No thanks.
24 next year, he's a poor man's Townsend or Caddy. Who would both also be capable of being in the bests most weeks at VFL level. Guys like Ballard aren't going to win you a flag, rather take a punt on a kid who slid out of draft contention.
