24 year old ..
... played 36 games in 6 seasons ...
... small forward player who has kicked 27 goals in those 36 games ...
... he’s competing with players like JT and Stephenson who have both kicked more goals (28) in just this season alone. Add Elliott to that who is yet to come back and obviously Elliott is ahead in the pecking order.
... although other players he is competing with for the position include Kirby (out indefinitely, will probably retire?), Blair (only played 2 games this season, players of his experience who play that little rarely get a contract extension, will be delisted?) and Fasolo (Free agent, might look for better opportunities elsewhere?).
I actually think Broomheads competition comes from Aish, Mayne, Daicos and Brown. Guys that spend a fair bit of time on the wing/midfield but rotate forward at times. If he hadn't injured his leg I reckon he'd have gotten a crack at the role Mayne is currently doing. It could have been a very different season if injury hadn't interrupted.
