20+ games, similar disposal count, improved kicking efficiency and more defensive accountability.

I'm not sure of expectations but he needs to improve his disposal efficiency.  If he gets as many possessions and improves his delivery then I'll be happy.

Maybe he's happy being in the same league as Madge Bishop and Rhea Pearlman?  ???

C'mon WP,

What do think he will do and what do you want him to do?
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

I expect he will cause supporters a lot of frustration before eventually being dropped to Coburg about round 9.

Mixes the brilliant with the shocking and you end up with a mediocre player with too many deficiencies.

Just can't see it with Dan and think he'll be upgraded this season at HB.
