Watching the dawes video, something has happened since it was shot and now with his overhead marking.

He had good hands above his head in that video, now he double grabs and looks tentative

When Dawes first arrived at Collingwood, there were huge wraps on him as a strong marking forward.

Since he has been with us, he has showed he has turned into a leading forward who takes more chest marks then overhead marks, something very strange for a player of over 100kg.

Maybe it was the transition from out muscling 17 and 18 year olds to playing on big bodied players in the VFL and AFL that set him back, ala Tom Hawkins, who took 2 years to realise to make it as an AFL footballer he had to mark the ball above his head.

I hold out hope for Dawes, but this year is a "biggy" for him, a lot will ride on whether he can gain that confidence to "pluck" those marks out of the air, rather then using his body to take chest marks or chest them on a lead.

Probably adjusting to playing against men who he can't out muscle as easily if at all to get the good positioning.
If it looked like he was attempting to outbody now i would agree, but he hardly looks to get his hands above his head in a contest now.
 
Loved the bit in pendles video, where he gathers the ball swings around on the left and hits a leading Daisy lace out, hope to see more of that in the future
 
JA's defensive work very impressive also! Heard of many a forward going back, but backs coming forward with 2 excellent years at this stage?
Interesting to watch these videos with the benefit of hindsight!.Thanks for the post.
