 Would be interested to know of his 30 possession games how many are at Etihad? Seems like if he played for an Etihad club he could win a Brownlow.  :lol

3 at the 'G, 1 at Etihad.

35 vs Brisbane Lions at MCG, 30 Apr 2011
33 vs North at Etihad, 24 Apr 2011
32 vs Hawthorn at MCG, 26 May 2012
30 vs Bulldogs at MCG, 12 Aug 2012

Really impressive.
Seems the coaches are also getting a bit smarter (Chocco?) in their use of him off the ball.
Quite a lot of his time seemed to be spent on that HFF where he was a great option for the hacked-forward kick.
Because he's so strong in a one-on-one contest any team mate under pressure from the centre can just kick it with confidence in his general direction.

Mind you there was a lot of good delivery into the forward line by the player breaking from the back to give the 1-2 handball option (Houli).
The great thing was the forwards were locking it in to a large extent so that player was not killed by a rebound over his head to his loose opponent.

His ability as a midfielder to kick over the zones is near unparalleled. Big weapon.

I too think his kicking is elite.His kicking punctures holes in the opposition

i think 16 by half time.

was one of our better players up to half time

Went AWOL in the second just like a lot of his mates.The goals he kicked from 50 last week were non existent today when he had the same opportunities. Little impact.

Dusty had just two touches after half-time. A similar game to his round 1 effort - first half blitz and then disappears once his tank starts running dry.

He needs to learn how to shake a tag! Why didn't Hardwick put him at half-forward at least and isolate the tag???
