The tough 20-year-old defender/midfielder attacks the game and his opponents with confidence. With a strong body, he could evolve into a midfielder as his experience and fitness grows. Last year, he performed strongly until round 10 when he suffered a hamstring injury and missed the next six weeks. Needs to get the most out of the pre-season. Has signed on until the end of 2014.
 
Draft history: 2009 NAB AFL Draft 2nd round selection (Melbourne) No. 18 overall.
