He has continued his good form from last year at BH into this season. Of course the standard his higher so his performance is diminished but FMD he is on a very steep learning curve running around shoulder to shoulder with the absolute elite of the competition.
He lacks an awful lot for a clearance midfielder, like all around awarenes and quick disposal skills, but he is holding his own by tenacity, uncompromising attack on the ball, and an insane running capacity for a kid who was medically rooted a few years back and that is truly remarkable.
He is apparently, quite intelligent, keen to learn and has an exemplary attitude that shines through in his interviews. Best of all he is 100% hawthorn and 100% grounded. He patiently worked through his health issues gradually building himself up and bidding his time on the rookie list and has reaped the rewards.
It is a delight to have a player of such sound character on the list.
He has done remarkably well for a debutant and if he can continue to improve he'll end up as a very good player indeed.
