Presenting and contesting well. What's more, he can provide 2nd & 3rd efforts and contests at ground level when his own ball comes to ground.

Agree Jack.  Saw a few things that I liked and even if he gets dropped back the experience will help him a lot.

Lots of blokes I would never play again.

Gordon, Newman, Conca, Petterd etc.

When you can try blokes like Ellis, Menadue, McBean, Elton...

Didn't think he poo'd himself at all. Was impressed that after his first contest which he lost he seemed to compete hard and bring the ball to ground. Looks good on the lead and clearly has some freakish talents.

Leads really well. He's clever with his running patterns. Couple of times he had 5-6 meters on his man but wasn't used.
I think it was an encouraging performance.

Encouraging, like Willy, I thought his presenting was very good

Did well. If you cannot see that no point in even discussing it with them.
Bloody great effort IMO.

I agree. Also hand balled for a few goals. I reckon he showed a competitive edge that both Griff and TV lack.

Also lead his man away from Vickery's and Jack's alot. Something Gordon nor Lloyd ever did. Was great to see Jack 1 on 1 for most of the day instead of having 2 or 3 on him because our other forwards aren't worth manning up on. I'd play McBean for the rest of the year and have Vickery and Griffiths fight out for the last spot. Just need to compliment them with a good quick agile small forward.

What about our forward setup changing? We had someone deep most of the day that actually gave us an option down there.
At one stage in the last quarter I saw Lids at FF, and I saw him moving up the ground to our usual setup when Cotch called him to drop back to the goal square. Nect minute Lids lead out and took a mark inside 50.  FMD!

Thought showed good signs. One of his handpasses set up a good goal. Did not look over awed.

Very interesting player!  A tall who can also play small!  Maybe the small forward we need is actually a 200cm bloke with uncanny agility & football smarts!  Persevere with him, will be a star!     :clapping
