I've praised his excellent disposal by hand and decisions under pressure, but, also, been critical that under pressure his kicks too often seem panicky and give it back to the opposition. But last week he had many mates who did the same thing... hurried and wasted kicks. Today, like others, he must put his strengths to good use... for 4 qtrs.Problem I have with him is his kicking and I have seen him pull out of contests and the ones that stick in my mind were marking duels where he thought he was going to take a hit and avoided the contact.
You can't have players like that in senior midfield positions imho.
If he plays he plays on a wing where he can tag another quality player but where the game isn't so dependent on his ability to win the hard ball because I don't trust him vs quality opposition who are going to go hard everytime.
The reason why we had to get players like Hewett and reinvent Kennedy was that players like Setterfield and Dow haven't delivered..
