nice package. again possibly related to his big hands ;)

didn't see much in the way of ruck work though

EDIT: just re-watched the 2009 GF sprint, stephen hill was in that field and got away to a flier but rhys mowed him down. hill did look to be quicker over the first 30 metres though.

Similar to Kosi imo. Primarily a forward and back up ruck for McEvoy

He needs game time. Just play him all next season (barring injury). We have to expect that he's going to get plenty of 6 touch no goal games but he will improve with the more experience he gains. I still hold a lot of hope for him.

I'd put him ruck for the centre bounces.

Stays on list - develop as back-up ruck, key forward...


Hold your ground :shock:
