Let's see how the comparison is at season's end. You'd hope for a much better %, as the status quo is not what we want... We don't want to be the side that consistently finishes in the bottom 6 but never gets thrashed and is difficult to beat! As for Casboult... a key forward of his size should be around 40 goals by now... a target of 22 (Wright, 2016) is embarrassingly modest.

Not everyone's performance is directly measured in goals. He's marking well, getting physical at contests and creating a number of chances for others to score. I think it was the GWS game that he had 8 score involvements. He does spend quite a bit of time quite a bit of time in the ruck as well. Would help him too if the ball came in quick and direct but our defensive game style, which is working ok for us, doesn't allow alot of goals kicked. Fortunately doesn't allow the opposition to kick many either.

There's a reason why sides such as Richmond, Collingwood and Freo are showing interest in him. For someone we got deep down the rookie draft we've done ok there. Made good use of his strengths withing limited abilities. If we had our way he'd be the 2nd tall forward and 2nd ruck with a top line key forward taking the responsibility to hit the scoreboard but we don't have that yet although what we see in the VFL is promising.
