He has stepped up since going back to Adelaide, and the move to the midfield has seen him still able to hit the scoreboard, but also add an explosive element to the contest, and has ridiculous foot skills to hit up a player.

He doesn't get the 40 possessions that Daicos gets, but he can tear a game apart with 20.

Where does he sit on the list of best players in the game for you? Or, where can he sit if he stays healthy?
 
As things sit, he's a supremely talented yet somewhat inconsistent and often injured player. Provided he gets a good run at it by the end of the season I imagine he will be in the best players discussion but its impossible to consider him in the Bont, Naicos, Cripps etc echelon yet as he hasn't shown it over a full season.
 
Can't wait to see him play in finals, that's where he will frank his superstar status

Injuries will be the deciding factor for him I think. Soft tissue injuries like hamstrings only get worse as you get older.

He is a different player than Daicos or Cripps, as he isn't that 30+ every week type of player.
However, he can do more damage with 20 possessions than the majority of mids can do with 40.
