Give me an AFL player with less influence & less disposals for the minutes he’s played in the first 2 rounds.....you’ll be hard pressed to find one.....
Hmm, he was BoG just three or four weeks after that shoulder injury, playing as a KPD!
At the end of last season, the last three rounds, he was back playing in defence as the KPD, and was noticeably back to his confident best which was also without Rowe or Marchbank. I read somewhere he led the AFL for intercept marking over the last three rounds, just like the kid we drafted.
It's about time our MC stopped using this kid to patch holes and first let him master the role he's clearly most confident at filling!
