His skills are good, it's all about effort over 4 quarters where he let's himself down more often than not. He isn't physical or a tackling machine but is that outside runner, distributor that every team needs.
This year is make or break for him and he needs to establish himself or he will be traded/delisted. I'm prepared to have an open mind on him for now and see some hope after his last couple of games..

I found the umpiring bewildering at times.
It seemed like we were playing to one interpretation and the doggies to another…

We got murdered in the middle
23-7 Centre Clearances
Libba 9, Bont 5,
Pittonet 4, Cripps 2, Walsh 1.
Our backline held up well considering the amount of ball coming in.

Rhylee West anyone?.....his father ex Dog champ Scott paid out on Luke Beveridge in a social media rant for dropping his son
after only one game back and 5x top games in the twos so I'd say thats about him done at the Dogs at seasons end.

Change that and he can be superb player for us. Thats not was I was debating however.

The problem is that Pittonet's clearances are kicks off the ground or blind kicks/handpasses in the general direction of our forward line. His ruckwork is poor and generally ends up with an opposition clearance. It's really worth watching how De Koning in the VFL (and even Casboult) is able to direct his hitouts so that a midfielder gets a decent opportunity to drive the ball forward. I don't know how "hitouts to advantage" is defined but most of Pittonet's taps don't result in us getting a clearance.
The other problem with Pittonet is that he is not taking marks around the ground and, when he "helps out" in defence, it often ends up with him blocking Jones or Weitering. He certainly tries hard, but there's a reason why he only played seven games in four seasons with the Hawks.

Fogarty had 13 possies@53% DE, 7 scoring involvements with one tackle...now we all like what Fogarty has done since coming to the club and the point I was trying to make is that while DC didnt have a great game it wasnt too bad given he rarely backs up a good game with another the following week and he was effective with what he did do, not enough for sure but he wasnt our worst either.
