On the rare occasions he is caught behind he does the disciplined thing and goes for the spoil.
    I missed the game against Bendigo but his recent weeks have been impressive.
    I though his body positioning was the best feature of his game on Saturday. It's the sort of thing that is more important the higher level of football the kid plays. To be honest he completely exceeded my expectations of him after everything that has been said about him since he joined.

      Did he play forward at any stage?

        No, in the backline all day. The Williamstown forwardline was working pretty well which would have made it hard.

            Loving hearing about Bou.

            Could of gone either way for a long while there. Great to see him being comfortable at that level. More importantly, that he has transitioned back. Last year reports were unless he played forward he wasnt a team player. But with Grant, Roughy, Jones, Cordy and Co we need some developing backs and his progress is great.

            Now to maintain the form and develop for 2010. If Bou does this, Wight is gone, if he isnt already. I don't like being negative or critical, but Bou shows more upside the Cam. But that's footy.
