level kick goals and he would run all day. Kicking was never reliable but he got so much of the footy it didnt matter, his kicking is still not great but he cant get the footy enough to impact
and I think he needs some games in the twos to get some big numbers and learn how to deal with the extra physicality and pressure you get playing vs mature age players.
I'd play him on a wing in the seniors, dont think he is cut out for blue collar high impact contested footy and we need us that pace and ball carrying ability which are his weapons better.
We have other players who can bang bodies and win clearances but we need Dow doing the outside role more IMO.

He's been all but destroyed, physically and mentally, played in the guts at his age....I really feel for the kid.

Very poor player management.
Finals, then 4 in a row!
