Dream Team Profile |
2014 Digest: Former Pie is taking steady steps towards becoming a regular defender. Not flashy but can do a job and has the height to stand talls or smalls. Trained well and pre-season form was solid.
2014 NAB Cup: Wrapped up his spot in defence. Very impressive over pre-season and is fitter than this time last year.
