If he played for Geelong, then no.  Since he plays for Richmond he'll get a week at least!     :help

No loss. Added little to the team. Was very poor.

Very little in it. Weak codger went down like he'd been shot to get the free, which you'd expect. Shouldn't get a week but probably will.

Found the going tough, towner. Did okay as a negator late in the game. I like seeing him play because he actually plays like he gives a stuff

Actually he put a pretty good hit on Danger too.
