Position: Midfield
Bye: Round 10

Verdict: Would need to see some outstanding pre-season form for him to feature in my team, although should step up this year after having 2 full uninjured seasons and respectable lifts of averages.

We have him in Worlds so pretty happy with that predicted increase in average  :D

yeah... May have been a little bit optimistic but he has definitely showed some signs this year, I've updated it btw,  :-X

Even though I'm a bomber supporter, I have to admit he's too unreliable and, at that price, there will be more consistent players on offer.  My prediction is more of the same this year.

You'd have to be either very brave or very stupid to select him next year.

[silloc]

Hopefully he can carry his confidence through to next season, I liked it when he stopped second guessing himself

good write up specky, have him in asians and british. rate him highly.

he can box too, got a bit to go yet to reach his potential but i reckon he is going to be a star.

not starting him in 2014 but enjoying his development and don't think he is as far from premium as many think...
