Matthew ARNOT

2015 Digest:   Form dropped away in 2014 and was delisted but then re-rookied. A hard, aggressive midfielder who gives his all. Can play a role at some stage but could do with a good start.

2015 NAB Cup:   OK in first game then starred in VFL at weekend. Giving himself every chance to push into line-up.
