Originally from Ballarat and prior to this season played the last 2 or 3 years for North Ballarat in the VFL.Played Vic Country at the Under 18 championships in 2001.A good honest defender who is only 185cm and not overly quick.Definitely a depth player.

Had a great season for Perth.
Played as a key defender and did very well.
An example of his versatility in the two games against West Perth he played against Justin Longmuir (198cm)in the first round game and then played on Troy Longmuir (184cm)in the next game.
I was hoping that Freo might get him,but, I hope he goes well at the Roos.

As Grub 29 said, he is a Ballarat boy and played with the Rebels.

I played basketball with him for a few seasons and despite the fact he is only about 185cm, he has a massive leap and is very athletic.

Not really sure what position he would fill on an AFL list. He is not slow, but he is not overly quick for his size, but is very versatile however. Probably back flank or pocket would best suit.

I honestly hope he does well though. He is a great bloke who does not have tickets on himself.
