When he first got here last year he could not chase defensively and I remember one of the first things a group of us at Basso? discussed (when he was playing for EF) was that if he wanted to stay on the Eagles list he would need to learn to run defensively. By the end of the year he was doing that much better at Peel, although he was being played out of a pocket or HFF. When he got around the ball you could see what he could do and that was his best position. Knows where to go to find the ball, is not super quick (not slow either) which everyone seems to want in wingmen/flankers these days, but if they can get to the ball does it matter?
Hopefully he'll be given more time on ball at Peel this year, or develops into a very good flanker.
