James SELLAR

2013 Digest:   Former Crow was recruited to fill holes last year and did so on 16 occasions predominantly down back. Might find some stiffer competition this year with the emergence of Tom McDonald so needs a big NAB Cup to ensure he’s in the mix for Round 1. Never really lived up to his draft billing and the clock is ticking.

2013 NAB Cup:   Kicked 10 goals in last three outings. Likely to play Clark’s forward role until he returns.
