He did over summer but lost 6kgs when he went under the knife for his appendix.
certainly taking his time, but I can see the shed comparisons at the same age.
Barely touched it, but when he did he broke up the game

Dow has genuine talent. Only time will tell if he makes it. Needs to be given a few consecutive games to get the feel of AFL level.
Liked the glimpses , however geez he looks light , the appendix thing looks like a great way to drop a few kegs, pretty sure I still have both of mine 
, we really need him to baulk up over summer , his going to be a big factor next season with Meatball soft tissued out, Skip old, Dusty becoming more of a forward, Ross looking gone . To push again we need another A grade mid in the mix

You must be a freak if you have two appendixLiked the glimpses , however geez he looks light , the appendix thing looks like a great way to drop a few kegs, pretty sure I still have both of mine
What that he is young and experienced and is learning his craft - was playing his 3rd game
Big and unique rigYou must be a freak if you have two appendix
Not a game yesterday to be remembered by club and supporters alike but Dow show that he could make it on the big stage even if he was a little out of his depth at times. We have to persevere with these kids
What I like are his clean hands. Seems to be a one touch footballer with good vision and handball awareness. Kicking is iffy though.
Last couple of games I've seen in the magoos, he seems to have the Richmond man down pat. Gives away downfield frees n fifties by being insignificantly grumpy at the wrong time.
I have Stack better than both. By a margin.
He’s done things against men that the others have only dreamt of doing against boys.
Most pure junior talent to walk into the club since Matty Knights.
If he can regain 2019, he’ll remind everyone again that he’s better than Rozee and Arrow Boy. Could be on par with Butters who’s also a gun.

Indeed.
Sydney is gifted. His last 12m of “experiences” would undoubtedly have been painful, but may just be the making of him as a person and as a footballer.
Dow has talent but needs strength, experience and belief. I would leave him in the seniors if at all possible.
RCD has self-doubt, is one dimensional and lacks footy nous. He also should be played in the seniors if at all possible, so at years end Blair and the MC remain under no illusions about the lack of depth in our midfield stocks, and can therefore plan and draft accordingly.
