The part in bold you've got it or you don't.

I don't think Kamdyn is anywhere clean enough in traffic to be a inside mid. Work to his strengths.

1. Endurance 2. Not bad one on one 3. Runs straight. 4. Runs hard into space.

Born winger.

I think everyone can improve their kicking and handballing to some extent via work; practice. Some don't agree, but if golfers can definitely improve something potentially as complicated as a golf-swing, cannot see why not. Bulldogs have taken quick handball to another level - even faster than the eye can see that it's not a legal HB apparently - so get better with your hands if you want to play mid. Kicking always matters.

You might be right; wing may be his best. Not sure he's quite big enough to make it as a CHB.

Never met an inside golfer
 
Not sure if he is a strong enough mark to play CHB. If he were to make it at CHB he would have to be a spoiler who than grabs it and runs off. I could see this working against lead up forwards. Would get smashed by clever marking forwards. Imagine how many Jack R would kick on him.
 
Bit like Oleg I believe there's a few places he could play well, one I'd defiantly like too see have a go at is a big bodied inside mid, not sure if he has the hands or not , but I think his natural attacking flair could blend well in a midfield role. I also like the thought of his size floating across half back or him continuing on a wing
 
He has to improve his kicking otherwise *smile* him off back to WA before we wake up and his in retirement mode like Edwards and Conca.
Still not convinced he is any good

People should save their insightful observations on players who deserve scrutiny. Least of our problems. Works up and down the ground, applies pressure in the air and on the ground and is tough. Nothing to see here. Please move on

I don't agree with your first sentence.

Agree with the rest.
 
Have not seen enough of him yet to decide if he is worth keeping. First few years either injured or in the seconds then 2015 played a BOG first gamer against Judd then played every game after that including EF. Was going well in first 4 games 2016 before injury again derailed him again. Has to improve consistency like so many others in 2017 seeing as his contract expires, as it does for 16 others - McIntosh, Drummond, B.Ellis, Morris, Martin, Hunt, Miles, Elton, Lennon, Townsend, Rioli, Broad, Grigg, Maric, Batchelor, Butler, Lambert.

Can't see any more than a handful of that 16 getting contract extensions/renewals come end of season 2017.

You obviously haven't been paying attention to dan richardsons work over the last few years

The only ones worth keeping are Rioli & Martin
The rest are *smile*.
Townsend, strong bodied midfielder :rofl

Before he was injured he was tracking beautifully. Missed him this year. Usually a fan of your outlandish views but this is way off the mark

Correct...he's a gun. Hard at it and versatile and if he gets through this preseason without injury will be on the verge of running through the midfield.
There were a couple of times before he got injured when he burst through half back took a couple of bounces across to the opposite wing, which allowed Jack to cut across and then he hit him lace out 35 metres in front of goal

My thoughts exactly. Probably drafting contract extensions as we speak.
 
I would like to see Kamdyn playing as a tall rebound defender coming off half back. Given his height & run can play a versatile role
