After an underwhelming start at Collingwood, his 2018 season is starting to look like the beginning of a promising career.
I thought the prelim was one of his better games for the club and he might have found his niche a bit deeper in the backline. He won or at worst halved virtually all his contests against his small forward opponents.
He used the ball well but most importantly, he looks like his confidence is returning. Hes finally got used to the tempo again after missing so much footy.
Hes had his knockers and still has his flaws but you cant do much more than play good footy in the biggest game of your life.
I guess we will learn a bit more about him next week. |

He went first round for a reason, he has reserves of class we are yet to see fully developed...reckon he might turn on a huge game next week, I believe he has form in that department.... _________________ "The last thing he expected WAS THE FIRST THING HE GOT!!!!!"

It is clear that this kid grew up with a footy in his hands and has come from football stock. He just knows where to position himself and always finds the ball. You can't teach that kind of stuff. The thing that impresses me though, is that despite his slight frame his tackles stick. He's a keeper, for sure. _________________ There are 10 types of people in this world, those that understand binary and those that don't. |

IMO, the turning point for him came when he took that courageous hit early 2017 (which saw him miss many weeks). He came back as a player highly respected by his teammates, and his game has improved ever since (the opposite of what happened to Andrew Schauble, who was never the same after his horrendous injury) _________________ I find your lack of faith disturbing |

Aish did a great job on Rioli last night. Plaudits to him. Dusty should have been penalized for his act of anger and frustration on Aish; when Aish was playing footy, Dusty in that instance thought he was in a "fight" piss weak I thought. _________________ “I even went as far as becoming a Southern Baptist until I realised they didn’t keep ‘em under long enough” Kinky Friedman |

Dusty is a reasonably average human being. Aish is a fine player and will get better. |

Rudie is on board alright. I don't see him in the same class as other early first round draft picks like De Goey or Stephenson, but he is nevertheless a good player, and one who is getting better and better. Considering his bad run with injuries, he's doing a terrific job, and fulfilling that small defenders role which we've needed for some time. |

I am positive he is VG and will get betterhe goes about his work with little
flair I suspect letting his on field job do the talking
When we continue our climb to be a consistent finals team he will be part of
it _________________ I'm not arguing--just explaining why i am right |
