Have to say, after seeing his highlights at u18 level I was very excited about this guy. We took him pick 12 in a very strong draft, I remember Emma Quale's comments in the lead up suggesting you could throw a blanket over the first 15 picks, they're all as talented as one another.

Was a little dissapointed when he didn't follow the path of a B. Ellis or Vlastuin and have an immediate impact and adjust easily to the level, but I'm really happy with what he's producing at the moment. Got all the traits of a very competent half-forward who rotates through the midfield. 250 games??

Yes and that's because he and his manager put off talks weeks ago (when he was running around in the VFL)

Now a fortnight out from finals is not the time to be talking contracts with any player

I'm sure we will slip out a little press release when we need be.

Great start to the game from Ben. Obviously a natural forward as he gets pretty hungry around goals..

He's a classy mark. Improving with every game. I gave him a vote for his game tonight.

I would have liked to have seen him play at Full Forward - he was catching everything. In the wet, marking like that could be very handy IMHO.
