He's not half the player he was when he debuted last year. He's absolutely butchering the pill and on a couple of occasions he panicked really badly under heat.

Not sure what to think. Really liked him last year but the last 2 games geez.

Needs to get the buzz cut back. That bouffant faux mullet is a shocker.

Needs a hair cut. But besides that he looks a completely different player to last year. Similar to Stack, has gone backwards. I fear we are trying to change the player he is. IMO he's a pure inside mid. Nothing else.

Biggest gripe ATM.

Players being played out of position that they were performing well in the past.

looks like a run of the mill player with his lighter frame. Vast change from clearance beast last year.

Needs to bulk back up

If he has any issues bulking up and he can come over to my joint.
Cinnamon donuts, Cc's, Cabury fruit and nut all washed down with a can of Solo.
I will have him back to heavyweight by round 15...

Disagree. I thought he did well tonight. Had a crack. But yes he is a inside mid.

Butchered it all night Smoking. And panicked real bad on a couple of occasions. Not half the player he was when he debuted.

Needs to put the bulk back on and go back to the buzz cut. Beast mode.

Development looks to have stalled a little after such a bright start. Concerning.

2nd game in nearly 12 months.
I think we need to cool our heals on our kids.
He and some others should be given more opportunities this year.
Ross will be ok.

I’d give him another game or two however he must start to improve his efficiency as its rock bottom poor , wins the ball well and then hands it straight back 60% of the time

The buzz cut is back. Hopefully with it comes a return to form.

Yep - if he now looks like the player he was last year hopefully he’ll play the way he did last year too.
There was so much to like about him in those early games that it has to be there still and it’s just a matter of time and maybe a bit of luck too.
