      Tall, lean and very athletic with decent skills. He still has a lot to learn and he needs to improve his concentration. In very windy conditions he kicked a couple of nice goals out of his four and even passed the ball nicely to a team mate. He does a lot of low percentage things though but I know they are working on that with him. Simon Dalrymple often gets him aside for a chat and points out any errors he made during the quarter.

        Will he play senior footy next year.
        Will he play 100 games
        Can he be a good quality AFL forward,

        From what you have seen?

          He has the ability to play some senior football but he is also carrying a shoulder injury that might require an operation. That could be a big distraction for him.

          It's too early to answer those questions especially given that he has tested the patience of the coaching crew etc but he has all the athletic tools that could turn him into a good forward.
          The pre-season might provide at least some of the answers. If the penny drops about getting serious about his footy then he could be a decent player for us.

          He will need time to develop but I would be happy if he just played regularly for the Willy senior team next season. That would be a terrific gauge on his ability to move into being a senior footballer in 2010.

            After some of things i've heard too, i will take that at this stage.

            If Reid has some influence over him, hopefully that might encourage them all to get serious.

              unlikely

              has played all but 2-3 games in the reserves, albeit with little pre-season.

              I would say he will feature more in the willy seniors next year along with jarrad grant (yes remember him, the guy in the stingray incident)

              The jury isn't out yet but he has a long way to go.
