A decent debut in the RWB, does he make the round 1 side in your eyes?
I don't know about round 1 but he's a mile ahead of where I expected him. Genuinely gunning for a wing spot although Treloar, Macrae and eventually Hannan will come into the side playing on ball with perhaps some time forward.
I suspect if VDM cops an injury McNeill looms as a good like for like replacement. Wood in an interview yesterday said he might be our quickest player. Actually got to good positions too rather than did a Justin Sherman (ran really fast into the opposition).
