Think we may just be going a tad overboard with the small fowards now....bizarre choice.... :huh

I have - watched him play some game for us at VFL level. Nice left foot and can attack from the back but lacked defensive technique. Has enough speed and like most left footers glides along nicely.

Derek Eggmolese-Smith (Cat B academy pick) highlights:

Baker looks like a lovely kick on both sides and reads the play well and has a nice turn of speed.No doubt he can develop in the guts. :clapping
