2017 Digest:   Valuable game time in opening two JLT matches. Hasn’t starred but did enough to be a big factor in VFL early doors.

16	VFL	Took some good strong marks – especially late. Encouraging signs.	–
17	VFL	Didn't have a massive impact in the air and was shifted back in the last quarter. Just the five touches.	–
18	VFL	Shocking weather for key position players. Took just three marks and had nine disposals.	–
19	VFL	Ineffectual up forward in first half. Can be ran off when ball hits deck. Wasn't disgraced when moved back. Still long term prospect.	–
20	VFL	Played on Keeffe for long periods and tried hard enough.	–
21	VFL	Did well under pressure down back and continues to improve each week.	–
22	VFL	Very good down back again. Looks comfortable in the role.	–
23	Bris	Debutante looked at home at centre half back with occasional run in ruck. But stretchered off after head clash with Durdin.	5
