Welcome to Collingwood Michael :D

I must admit I'd never heard of him before today but nevertheless from what I can gather from his short highlights reel the thing that stood out to me was his composure to dispose of the ball even under big pressure.

yep- music sucks.

looks similar to langdon- reads the play very well- cool and calm under pressure and good user by either foot.

what I love about him is his delivery to a player on the lead.

Youngest ever senior player at Melbourne High Old Boys in the Amateurs. Played seniors in a good comp at 15.
Then he went to the TAC Cup.

His delivery by foot is excellent. Like the way he strikes the ball and he did two nice left footers in his reel.

Manlove!!

Nice highlight package in that Dave. Looks very assured with ball in hand. Good disposal with left or right, not afraid to back into oncoming traffic to take a mark so while an outside player doesn't mind the physical stuff.

There's 1 kick there at about the 3:00 minute mark where he baulks a player and sends a nice pass to a guy wearing number 10 who looks and moves a lot like Pendles, hopefully we'll see lots of that in years to come.
