Trying to find his stats. He isn't in the leading disposal getters.

Menadue to RCD who marks and keeps running. Ordinary kick and it's forced for a throw-in. Hawks clear.

Garth intercepts Roughead's kick. Off to Eggy who goes to Coffield. We almost turn it over. English to Street who goes back and forth. Goes long and it's rushed.
