This was his third year in the system. physically a fully developed big bodied player.
With respect last pre season was the first full one he had done. I would say he is not a fully developed big bodied player
Very hard to be able to all drills at training when you are on restricted program because of injury
Hard to put miles in the legs when you've got a serious foot injury and you're not able to run
Not sure how you can do weights when you have a shoulder injury
Wth respect at 191cm and 90kg he wont get any bigger he is at his playing weight.Physically he is developed.
With respect injurys occured late in both 2013 where he didnt play after round 18 with a shoulder and 2014 where he missed from round 14 to round 20 and played the last couple of rounds.. As far as im aware i dont believe either injury greatly prevented him from having decent preseasons.
This season he was picked to play on a wing he clearly had the miles in his legs to play there in fact at times he was one of few who had the ability or maybe it was the inclination to run both ways.
Look i really like him as a player i always have all i have done is point out a few areas he really needs to get better at.
We dont want him sitting back and thinking i have made it, he is far from it. I hope the club is challenging him to be better and actually point out areas he must work on.
