He wasn't on his pat malone when it came to hunting the man after the footy.
32 possessions last week, 19 contested, 5 tackles and looks like a senior player who is no longer a kid but has taken on the responsibility of being a leader in Norths midfield and can be trusted to perform.
Unfortunately Paddy is still doing what he did in the U18s and hasnt progressed his game, I thought Greg Williams was harsh but fair in his comments a while back and Paddy has to grow up and get more intense about his footy, learn that playing onball also includes finding your way down to the backline and keeping an eye on your opponent because his average ball use doesnt allow him a free pass in terms of being a one way runner only and he has to make up for those shortcomings by working as a two way player as he isnt good enough to live purely off his offensive work.
