It's a fantastic initiative and the shots are brilliant. Well done to Ben Long and the club for making this a consistent part of the pre-season experience.

Great vibe.

Yeah, it's great. Kudos to all involved.

But he can star in his very own feature-length film or a 5-part documentary series this time next year, so
long as he starts to star consistently on the field as well.

To be fair - being a small forward in our team the past two years wouldn't have been easy.
Probably over coached in terms of structures but in a team filled with players who are unskilled (due to lacklustre development) and often unfit (due to a whopping long term injury list), he has copped a hard tag in all of his matches for us so far, which is why I think he has found himself frustrated out of games at times.
I think Ben will be a lot better for the personnel changes (on field and off), even if it does mean that we go backward in the first half of 2020.
The whole scene should look a lot rosier in the back half of next year.
