That is some effort - even allowing for natural growth.
One of the possible positives from quick muscle/mass development such as this is the compound effect it has on confidence. Dean sees how adding muscle helps his game in a short period of time which inspires confidence in his game - which further inspires him to really hit the weights in the hope of continuing the quantum improvement.

Not to doubt you Diarrhea (you know there is too much respect for that ;D) but here is an extract of JON from Wispey
2. He has the tricks to turn a game in one quarter. He is genuinely classy. Clean, silky with a bit of magic.
3. No one after him in my rankings would appear to represent a better all-round package of attributes. Jarrad is a great height for a wing/flank, among other possibilities down the track. He also appears to have a reach advantage (unconfirmed). Reliable kick with high hurt factor. Lightning quick. Can take a huge grab. Excellent evasion. Happy to get his own ball. "Never" flustered. Plays in a manner that suggests he will thrive on AFL centre stage once he has settled in.
4. Only about 3 of the next 15 players in my rankings are similarly reliable all round kicks and probably none of those 3 are quite as good.
5. Despite his speed and silkiness, he wins much more than his share of his own ball - in one-in-one physical tussle contests or inside traffic etc. He is no downhill-skier or stranger to hardball gets or to displays of determination/desperation.

I've only seen him play two games, BO, so I don't have a firm opinion one way or the other on whether he is only an outside player. "Some students" does not include me. I can understand people thinking that there is not a lot of contested leather won at HBF.
I'm inclined to think JON was a good choice, maybe a very good choice.
I like a lot of Wisbey's work but I think he can be a bit too enthusiastic at times. I'm inclined to water down his comments.
I'm pretty sure we totally agree on JON, Ken (I keep forgetting to drop the BO ;D).
The thing that sticks in my mind was Miller talking about what a good kid he is. They trust his capacity for learning. That's what excites me about JON. He's probably going to keep improving over time and he already has the glamour and athleticism.
The right stuff?
Maybe having a kid like JON around is just the thing to for some of our second year players like Dean Limbach. (Sidestep back on to topic. ;D)
