He is exceeding expectations at this stage and still tonnes of upside but quite a few moments where he is taking short steps to avoid heavy contact
That's ok, just hope he finds the confidence to go in hard when his moment comes

Just another player that has fit right in at this level.
Will have his quiet games as will every first year player, but you can just tell. He's a keeper as is Dow, of course.

Wearing the #4 he kind of actually did remind me of a left pegged, slighter Gibbs. Don't know enough about him as a junior to know if that's in anyway a fair comparison, but if he's typically a skillful outsider who can mix it inside, then well...
WILL go into the midfield in a year or so

Honestly don't know. I'm not "inner circle" as such. I speak with his parents and find out what is happening but don't get involved and don't want to interfere. I also won't ever pass on any information unless okayed.
The young fella has got to where he is because of himself and his parents. I have had absolutely ZERO to do with who he is or his football ability.
Just nice to have a family member playing at CFC and amazingly wearing my favourite No.4.
PS he did get a heap of stitches in his head though. Should be fine

Loved his game yesterday.
His running power is a big asset at AFL level. Especially defensively. Even in his first few games you can see a number of times where he has led the way in getting back to fill space.
His defenders would like having a wingman like him.

He was the exact player we needed in the draft and was predicted to go right in our range (pick 14), damn you SOS

Looks composed and skilful. Runs all day..already! So good getting games in to these youngsters..
Then he must use it better than those mentioned players then.
Was thinking Craig Bradley
One of many that we have to get senior games into.
Hasn’t the frame yet, jumper is hanging off him, but was still able to run out the game.
Impressed.

moves like a player - smarts, sublime left-boot, would have loved for him to be able to have got a boot to that ball he was chasing through the middle
