So Dylan is a player I should state upfront I admire.
In 2010 he played a lot early and was one of the casualties when the team was not playing well, and was a scapegoat for a lot of our supporters for a season that was not living up to their hopes
He came back into the team later in the year and took a bit to get going. He struggled with Dale Thomas in the first final but its hard to assess that performance with our team struggling mightily on the night.
I stood by and watched posters bag him, and call for him to be dropped after the swans final which I was very surprised with and presumed could only have come from posters not at the game, and not fully able to appreciate his work, the kirk contest, the two balls he kicked to Hall for goal assists in the first quarter.
Now, Im not saying he doesn't have work left to do, or that he never mucks it up, but to me it was absolutely clear to me he improved his kicking markedly in 2010. That more frequently they are spinning well have a better trajectory and are increasingly more attacking. In the finals against the Swans and Saints he kicked excellent set shot goals and more often that
I stated up front I was a fan but I believe if supporters cant see the improvement in Addison and particularly his kicking then they just aren't paying attention.
