I had a close look at him and his work off the ball was good, his one on one defence was good and he covered for his team mates. His disposal was good and he was physical. I went away happy that we have as a rookie, mainly to bolster the NBs but to provide depth if required.
Sheehan only played the first half of the practice match but he looked good and certainly not slow. He has a bit of competition now and may find it hard to displace the likes of Macreadie and Williamson.
I think Williamson will play more on the wing when he has more games under has belt in a Issac Smith type role but will learn some of his trade tagging different players to get
experience, Sheehans main problem will be fellow Irishman Byrne when he gets back who is quicker and a better mark.
I'm not selling Sheehan short but on that last game he wouldnt be in my consideration for a senior game just yet....I'd have Polson as my next senior inclusion....
