The 2009 first-round draft pick made his AFL debut in round 10 against Hawthorn and averaged 13 disposals in his six games, including a career-best 18 disposals against Essendon in round 21. A raking left-footer, he doesn’t seem overawed on the big stage and looks to have untapped talent. Signed a contract extension in November and will benefit with extra bulk on his 186cm frame.
Draft history: 2009 NAB AFL Draft 1st round selection (Western Bulldogs) No. 15 overall.
