Certainly is not a natural footballer and his body shape doesn't suggest otherwise, he does however require a block of games to see whether he can cut the mustard. This method of selecting young guys and dropping the next week does nothing for their confidence firstly but secondly we all know the speed of the game between VFL and AFL is vastly different so they do need some time to transition. Obviously your elite youngsters do this much quicker than this guy or similar players we have on our list. It's a development thing and I suppose it's up to the list managers to determine if we invest further time and effort into these players but at the same time you have to provide reasonable opportunities.
