Think the Poor Attitude at Lions last year sent him way back

Can't blame that. He's had 6-8 months with a new club and group. Maybe it wasn't a poor attitude, maybe he just isn't good enough

Has been very underwhelming so far but still way to early to write him off, the kids only 20.
He needs to spend 6+ weeks in the VFL.

Has anyone watched this kid closely? Is he struggling to get to contests?
Seems to be ghosting around in the background most weeks.

I welcome Brisbane supporters giving their opinion. Hopefully, as long as they stay neutral, they may be able to give us a positive or redeeming feature that we certainly have not been treated to yet.

He's been given everything on a silver platter thus far, and as such expects more of the same. He's never going to work to get the ball, he considers that he is entitled to the ball.

I think it could be a Real Lack of Fitness as he never Done a Full Pre-Season since 2012

Attitude is part of his problem I think , had a very good first year, I remember thinking that he was Bartel like, was taking great overhead marks and made good decisions. In his second year his heart wasn't with the club so his attitude changed and hence had a poor season. He has seemed to have carried this attitude over.
The other part is that he has been fed with a silver spoon for his whole life, and is now playing for a club underpressure, it doesn't look like he is even trying to step up and take the game on, he just handballs to a player ineffectively so he doesn't get in trouble

And you know Aish Personally
It's the way he is. Golden child at SANFL, got to believing everything would just come to him easily. When at Brisbane he had to work he didn't like it, blow ups with coaches and players.
So he trades clubs rather than face up to working hard, and wants everything to just come to him again.
What he needs is a strong mentor to make him realise that he'll get nothing he doesn't earn. It would seem bucks and leppa ain't that.

He has decent enough skills just nothing particularly special about him that could develop him into a star

I don't think that's the problem, is being played in the wrong position

Inside mid being played in an outside role he doesn't have the attributes for. Does not know how to get the pill in space and when he does he doesn't have the pace or penetrating disposal to do damage with it.
His best footy is played closer in. Quick hands. You have plenty ahead of him on your inside mid depth chart though.

You truly believe the reason he left Brisbane was because he didn't wanna work hard?
I think he could do worse than watch a few BASTINAC clips. Never going to have the size to be a dominant inside mid nor the speed and willingness to take the game on for an outside mid.
And he ain't getting it with Bucks either!!!
More Brisbane flogs in this thread than Collingwood supporters, pretending to be here for genuine discussion when everyone can see it's a thinly veiled childish troll attempt.
Yes, Aish has sucked, move on and enjoy your irrelevant club.

Pretty consistent them at Collingwood is we perceive Bucks plays a few guys out of position. Guess it's due to us recruiting so many similar types and then being bewildered that we don't have guys that spread well, guys that run hard outside etc. it confirms my opinion that bucks is a reactionary coach rather than being at the forefront of change and that's the difference with the good coaches. We're recruiting for the Sydney/Freo 2010/11/12 mould of bigger body, inside mids and loading the team up with them. Footy has evolved and these guys now look like treacle.
