His best is good enough as we saw when he had 35 touches in one game and I have seen him defend well as I have said before vs Tippa where he kept him very quiet.
But like Cuningham he is inconsistent and can be a ball watcher. Wouldn't chase in a Gold Coast game I watched and looks disinterested at times in a Yarran type of way where he picks and chooses his moments to get involved. One of those players who needs the right club/coach to get the best out of him imho, not sure that is us who need max effort most games and can't afford too many passengers too often.
Maybe West Coast where he doesn't need to be the main man every game and be under the microscope so often..
