He has a dip and puts his body on the line. He looks like he belongs unlike a few others

I'm sure he does. That hardly makes him effective, nor does it have anything to do with him taking a big step up.
So many of our players were down yesterday, it seems churlish to isolate one or two and make them carry the can. But let's not gild the lily here.
If his performance yesterday constitutes a step up, then my issues with him would appear to be well justified.

What concerned me about SOJ yesterday was his inability to stop his opponent(s) running off him. While our team defence should minimise the impact of that, SOJ's opponent(s) was able to set up several Richmond forward thrusts. As a small/medium forward SOJ (and Bolton) needs to find a way to stop opponents exploiting his lack of pace. Samo and Pickett having off days and Lamb getting KOd probably didn't help.

We were just not switched on - fumbled, poor disposal decisions, skill errors, pathetic tackling efforts to name just a few issues. We were caught flat footed and out of shape time and again and cut to ribbons with ease. The only saving grace was the eventual losing margin. In that the Tiggers were kind to us.
Anyway, the game provided further clarification as to this year's list management decisions. BTW, I thought Levi had a reasonably good overall game and so did Charlie. Our midfield let us down, although I noticed that by the end we did square up on clearances a bit. Earlier we were being smashed.

In no way did I agree that it was a big step up..... He was putrid along with many others.
What I was saying is he isn't afraid to put his body on the line and he looks a keeper.
A few others though........ hmmm.

Not a great performance from Jack, but don't forget it is only a week ago that he got a Rising Star nomination.
He's going OK for a young bloke only half way through his second season.
As you said PP, he wasn't the only one that was very ordinary yesterday.
