Summary:
The number one pick two years ago had an injury interrupted second season that prevented him from showcasing his immense talent. Averaging a solid 76 in his first season, I was tempted to take the risk at the start of this season, and I'm glad I didn't. Should look to push his average higher this season in a young and improving suns midfield which should start to show people what it is capable of next season.

Verdict:
On my watchlist. Unlikely I will be able to fit him into my starting midfield next season but should improve markedly next season. Definitely one to watch!

Predicted 2013 average: 88

Agreed lads! Will keep an eye on him in preseason and NAB though  ;)

[Windigo]

Seems injury prone, will keep an eye in years to come. But definitely not this year IMO.  ;)

[colmullet]

one of these years he will go bang, if he lights up the NAB with some good scores ill find him a sneaky spot in the mids i think as a gamble

[Ricochet]

no doubt will one day be a DT god but wont take the risk just yet

[KoopKicka]

Not this year, but definitely will get a look-in in 2014. :)

Could be a third year breakout, but he was injured for most of this season, so you could not count this season. I'd hate to miss it if he goes BANG! this year.... But doesn't seem too likely for me, and impossible to fit him into a team when its hard to pick 4 super premo's, and when there will be about 5 young mids that will definitely be guns one day. There are plenty of fantastic rookies and premo's to choose in the mids, Swallow is in the midpricer range, and won't be worth it unless he pumps out a 110 average..

[Capper]

Too injury prone and with the way the mids are looking next year there just isnt enough spots to get eveyone in

[Shihan7]

Yeah, not this year...2014 is the year I will seriously consider :)
