2017 Digest:   Coach looks set to play him up forward if pre-season is the guide. Looking for that elusive breakout year.

2017 NAB Cup:  

2017 Season

1	Ess	Jagged a goal as a forward., but then sent to defence to try to help shore things up. Just fair.	4
2		–
3		–
4	VFL	Started in attack but shifted to defence and had more of an impact.	–
5	VFL	Used at both ends of the ground and was handy without starring.	–
6	VFL	Provided a target in attack and did well around the ground. Kicked a goal and did his bit.	–
7	VFL	Missed a couple of chances in attack but looked dangerous at stages and gave the Cats a few headaches.	–
8	VFL	Jagged a couple of goals, but wasn’t a big factor overall.	–
9	VFL	In and out without having a great impact. Has to do more at this stage.	–
10		Bye.
11	VFL	Battled away but not his best. Would a change of scenery benefit him?	–
12	VFL	Played down back and was handy enough. 15 possessions.	–
13		Bye.
14	Adel	Played as a forward and was reasonable, missed his only shot on goal.	4
15	Coll	Played key forward and had nine disposals and two goals by quarter-time. Only touched the ball seven times after that.	5
16	GWS	Seven strong marks across half forward. None in dangerous positions though and didn’t hit the scoreboard.	5
17	Geel	Looked dangerous at times playing across half forward. Two goals and all 11 disposals hit the target.	6
18	Frem	Marked strongly. Kicked one goal from 17 disposals.	6
19	Syd	Relatively quiet night with only 10 disposals.	5
20	Rich	More sightings of the Tasmanian Tiger than the Hawk No. 25. Five kicks for two goals.	3
21	NM	Got his hands to plenty, but struggled to take many marks. One nice goal assist.	3
22	Carl	Pitiful. Failed to provide a physical contest.	1
23	WB	Key forward offered up one goal from 11 touches. Question is what strip he’ll be wearing next year.	4

2016 Season

1	Geel	Didn’t have a single kick for the day. Horror outing with just two handballs.	1
2	WCE	Quiet first half in attack but came into the game a bit more in second stanza.	4
3	WB	Battled with one goal and six touches. Definitely a game to forget.	3
4		Groin.
5		Groin.
6		Groin.
7		Groin.

23	Coll	Struggled up forward in first game since early in the season. Four marks.	2
QF	Geel	Kicked a couple of goals and in plenty of score involvements. Gave good value.	6
SF	WB	Horror night at centre half forward. Failed to take a mark and had three kicks.	1

7	Melb	Kicked a goal and competed hard in attack.	5
8	Syd	Scored goals in second and third terms but apart from that quiet.	5
9	VFL	Did well in tough conditions for talls. Three goals.	–
10	StK	Made a contribution with two goals and competed well.	4
12	Adel	Will struggle to maintain his place in the side, in defence or up forward.	2
13	VFL	Had hands full with young Darcy Moore. Not his best game.	–
14	Coll	Nice goal but not potent in attack.	3
15	Frem	Handy in a few contests but not a big factor.	4
16	Syd	Work-rate good and played a role. One goal and provided pressure.	5
17	Carl	Two goals but took a back seat to others playing up forward.	5
18	Rich	Offered very little up forward. Got to be concerned about his place in team.	3
19	WCE	Played at both ends. Serviceable.	4
20		Senior emergency.
21	Port	Like Frawley spent time at both ends. Good in a few late one-on-ones.	6

23	VFL	Ordinary down back then went forward and was very good.	–
QF	VFL	Bye.	–
SF	Adel	Couple of shaky efforts up forward. One goal, eight marks. Keep his spot?	3
PF	Frem	Added two goals to the cause and grabbed seven marks. Played his part.	6

2014 Season

1		Knee.
2		Knee.
3	VFL	Did well down back in first game back from knee injury.	–
4	VFL	Still working back to full match fitness. Just fair.	–
5	VFL	Better as the game wore on after a slow start.	–
6	VFL	Nearly set for a senior recall. Got better as game wore on.	–
7	StK	Back after absence with knee with four goals then to defence when Lake hurt.	7
8	Syd	Started forward then pushed back to Franklin/Tippett. Rusty.	3
10	Port	Kept Schulz to a goal and needs to own centre-half back for the rest of the year.	7
11	GWS	Battled Cameron and did fine job restricting him to seven disposals and one goal.	7
12	WCE	Beat Darling. Didn’t give him any space.	7
13	Carl	Took Casboult who caused him some concerns in the air.	5
14	Coll	Serviceable up forward with two goals. Hairdo a concern.	6
15	GCS	Effective bullocking role in attack.	5
16	NM	Unusual brief match up on McMahon at start then on Hansen. Limited output.	3
17	Adel	Struggled to keep Josh Jenkins in check.	5
18	Syd	Outmarked by Tippett on occasions early but made some handy spoils.	6
19	WB	Had a minimal input and was subbed off in fourth quarter.	2
20	Melb	Used at both ends with moderate effect. Can he be a September swingman?	4
21	Frem	Found himself forward after half time but little influence on contest.	4
22	VFL	Drifted between defence and attack. OK afternoon.	–
23	Coll	Beaten one-on-one enough to be of concern to the coach. Hope Lake comes up!	4
QF	VFL	Bye.	–
SF		–
PF	VFL	Struggled to contain Redpath and appears long odds of a call up.	–
GF		–

2013 Season

1	Geel	Had Podsiadly and for most part he was handy enough.	5
2	WCE	Mostly on Darling and had a very good game.	7
3	Coll	Found Cloke a real handful. Must have nightmares about the big forwards.	4

2012 Season

1	Coll	Took Cloke and stuck to his guns. Cloke’s inaccuracy helped.	4
2	Geel	Looked all at sea again. Opposition teams have him in the gun	2
3	Adel	Had his work cut out on Tippett	3
4	WCE	Stood up under pressure. Much improved game.	6
5	Syd	Had important job on Reid and contained him.	6
6	StK	Stuck to guns in absorbing battle with Riewoldt. Confidence is rising.	6
7	Melb	Had the job on Clark who was on top early. Fought back.	5
8	Frem	Continued his good run of form in negating role.	6
9	Rich	Battled away but Riewoldt had his measure by the end of the day.	3
10	NM	Did a good job on Edwards but lack of ball made his task easier.	6
11	Port	Plays much better in defence when he stands the third tall or resting ruckman.	5
12	Bris	Had his hands full with Brown in first quarter then not a factor.	4
14	Carl	Unobtrusive as tall defender.	5
15	GWS	Didn’t have to do much as ball hardly went into GWS’ forward line.	3
16	WB	Subbed off after even effort up forward with two goals and five marks.	5
17	Coll	Thrown task on Cloke and should be proud of his efforts.	8
18	Ess	Did OK early on Gumbleton then was outmarked a couple of times.	4
19	Geel	Flogged by Hawkins, particularly after half time. The Cat is his worst nightmare.	3
20	Port	Started forward, then went back before returning forward. Did well up front.	6
21	GCS	Couple of early goals looked impressive in attack.	5
22	Syd	Had a massive 10 rebound 50s and defender stoutly all afternoon.	7
23	WCE	Had Darling at times and OK. Not as good as last week but held his own.	6
QF	Coll	One negative to come from game. Monstered by Cloke. Won’t want Hawkins.	2
PF	Adel	Alternated between Tippett and Walker and had some hairy moments.	3
GF	Syd	Kept Reid tried down early. Didn’t lose his cool and was effective.	6
