A sub in Round 13 (Eagles game) he didn't return to the seniors until Round 21 against North where he had his best return of 17 disposals.

Gave him a 6

Solid start without being spectacular

Wing, if he can work on speed/tank.

Good height, tackles a bit, can jag a goal and his flying mullet would look sensational running up and down the G.

Looks as outside as they come but fortunately also appears to possess the speed, skill, smarts & ability to impact the scoreboard which will enable him to get away with it for the most part....:shh
