2017 Digest: Knocked back advances from Collingwood to remain at the kennel and now has to fight his way into the best 22. Not the easiest task though.
2017 NAB Cup:
2017 Season
1 | Coll | 14 tackles an indication of his night at the office trying to stop Pie mids. Only two kicks, however. | 5 |
2 | Syd | Played his role and played it well. Iced game with a goal and seven tackles playing forward and midfield. | 7 |
3 | Frem | Worked hard. Collected 24 possessions and won four clearances. | 6 |
4 | NM | Couldn’t question workrate and commitment but lacks the poise and polish to put opponent in the hurt locker. Effort huge. | 6 |
5 | Bris | Kicking still lets him down. Missed a goal from 11 metres out. Couldn’t question effort but not the polish to match. | 4 |
6 | GWS | Started pretty well but faded like an acid wash pair of jeans when the game went up a notch. | 4 |
7 | Rich | Surprising to see him take ruck role a couple of bounces. Added plenty of run around the field in a good game. | 7 |
8 | WCE | Quality game. His clearance work and ball winning was crucial. | 7 |
9 | Geel | Six tackles, four inside-50s and 24 disposals a handy effort. Only downside is his lack of poise at times with ball in hand. | 6 |
10 | StK | Plenty of handballs in strong start and maintained a steady output in the midfield. | 6 |
11 | Bye. | ||
12 | Syd | Another Bulldog who struggled to get into the game. | 4 |
