2013 Digest:   At 25 is one of the AFL’s journeymen. The former top-10 draft pick of the Crows failed to play a game before crossing to Carlton, where he played seven games in 2008 before being delisted. He joined Port via the rookie draft in 2012 and was elevated to the senior list to play 16 games. Not elevated permanently for 2013.

2013 NAB Cup:   Journeyman failed to fire when given a run and will have to win spot through SANFL.
