Well we will see. I dont rate him as a sure thing at all. If he does make it he isnt going to be a star but more a hard working player.
The one thing i know about him is his disposal is not as bad as you say. His stats over the season say he isnt. Kicks at 84% efficency and has lead the midfielders in scoring assists from the inside 50's.
What he does do at times is kick them short of the player he is looking for.
He can rush his handball and miss targets or put his teamates under pressure.
His has a question mark on his pace.
What he doesnt do is turn it over.
His disposal is just as good as Hislop , Houli , Lonergan and Reimers.
His tackling is better than any of the other young midfielders.
He will actually block and sheppherd.
He can also tag someone and keep them out of the game while getting his own footy. In the first half yesterday he player on Summers and kept him to 6 disposlas. In the second half Summers had 26 disposals and kicked 2 goals when pitted against Houli , Reimers and JJ.
He can run all day and doesnt need the rotations that some of our other mids need.
He is still a bit of a long shot but the bad parts of his game are things that can be worked on.
