2017 Digest:   Suffered concussion issues last year but has had a full pre-season other than a calf niggle. Pre-season form encouraging.

2017 NAB Cup:  

2017 Season

1	StK	Strong and positive force in midfield and on forward flank all game.	6
2	Carl	Fumbly and missed targets by foot. Ordinary outing capped by heavy hit late in final term that forced him off with blood rule.	3
3		–
4	VFL	Worked hard enough and had 24 touches, but didn’t bang the door down for a recall.	–
5	VFL	Started well enough, but concussed by illegal hit and sat out the second half.	–
6		Concussion.
7		Concussion.
8	VFL	Copped a heavy knock early on return from concussion and sat out rest of game. A big worry.	–
9		Concussion.
10		Concussion.
11		Concussion.
12		Concussion.
13		Concussion.
14		Concussion.
15		Concussion.
16		Concussion.
17		Concussion.
18	VFL	Simply great to have him back on the ground after a really challenging year. Exceeded Dees' expectations and made a real impact with 25 disposals.	–
19	VFL	Showed good signs of improvement in second game back. Looked more confident across halfback and on the ball.	–
20	VFL	Excellent effort and looks ready to return to senior footy. 34 possessions, seven clearances.	–
21	StK	Excellent on return from multiple concussions. Copped a hard early knock but got up and marked well.	7
22	Bris	Didn’t do much wrong at half back and then kicked the sealer from a set shot.	6
23	Coll	Stationed back again and wasn’t as prominent as he has been since return.	5

2016 Season

1		Played in Casey intra-club.
2	Ess	Had a stinker aside from a smart long goal in traffic. Set shot that he sprayed summed up day.	2
3	VFL	Crashed in from the first contest and won a lot of ball. Kicking could have been better though.	–
4	Coll	Solid first half (10 disposals) then faded out of the game. One goal, three inside-50s.	5
5	Rich	Kicked first goal but from that point on pretty quiet. Three kicks.	2
6	VFL	Concussed early in clash with Bombers and took no further part.	–
7		Concussion.
8	VFL	Concussed early again for the second time in past few weeks. Not good.	–
9		Concussion.
10		Concussion.
11		Concussion.
12		Concussion.
13	VFL	Solid outing in midfield with 14 contested possessions, seven tackles and six clearances.	–
14	VFL	Bye.	–
15	VFL	Slogged away in midfield with 20 possessions. Got through OK.	–
16	VFL	Bye.	–
17	StK	Back after a few concussions and ran down a few times, which is unusual. Not one to remember.	4
18	WCE	His commitment to tackling was good. His ball use was poor.	5
19	GCS	Got involved more than recent weeks and awareness much better. Shanked a few kicks.	6
20	Haw	One costly error but made up for it with a running goal. Eight kicks.	4
21	Port	On the end of two quick counter attacks for his two goals.	7
22	Carl	Good first half then went to Gibbs and slowed him in third term. Can hold head high.	6
23	Geel	One of few Dees to show something resembling effort. Seven inside-50s.	6

2015 Season

1	GCS	Hit the ball and man hard on debut. Subbed out when out of petrol.	5
2	GWS	Sub. Only played a quarter but showed enough to lose the vest next week.	3
3	Adel	Came on early as the sub for the injured Frost, looks a class above.	6
4	Rich	Tackled himself into the ground and kicked an important third-term goal.	6
5	Frem	Worked into the game and was one of the few bright spots in the second half.	6
6	Syd	Quietest game at senior level so far. Couldn’t get into it.	4
7	Haw	Got into the game late after a rough opening half. Tackled hard.	3
8	WB	Quiet until final term then was instrumental in lifting team over line.	7
9	Port	Dees’ best. Worked hard inside the contest and tackles strongly.	7
10	Coll	Mixed grunt and class to be a factor. Gotta love way he goes about it.	6
11	StK	Cracked in all day but like many others, out on his feet late.	6
12	Geel	Maniacal in his attack on ball and opponent. Puts a smile on your face with way he plays.	7
14	WCE	Subbed out in opening minutes after head knock in first contest.	0
15	Ess	Quiet afternoon by the first-year player. Only 11 possessions.	3
16	Bris	Attacked ball with normal vigor but wasn’t as incisive going forward.	5
17	StK	Started in great style, but input diminished.	5
18	Coll	Worked into the match, more effective in the second half.	6
19	NM	Kid might be finding the season a long one. Hardly sighted.	3
20	WB	Spent time at half forward and in midfield. Battled hard but caught a few times.	4
21	Carl	Good in patches but long season has caught up with him.	4
22		Rested.
23	GWS	Back after a rest and was in an out of the contest. Good debut season.	4
