2 words MID FIELD, move him in there plenty of role playing small forwards on the list we really need some speed in the middle and somebody who chases hard both ways.

Dannyboy should be told a wing is all his for the next 20 games.
Georgey, $hai and Stengle to share his vacant forward line gig on a 2-3 week roster.

A lot would have been thinking that too but he is playing sore. Something not right. Against the Dogs you were waiting especially the last but it never eventuated.
Maybe the Digs put a lot of work into young Dan.
Did you see his knee had a bandage or strap on it?
If he is ok to go why not. Bring in Shai to play his role. We have speed , class a player who works hard both ways and an X factor forward???

He's 100% playing sore. I was next to the boundary when he limped off in the first quarter and got strapping under his knee. Was very proppy testing it on the boundary line before going back on. Unfortunately too much expected of a 2nd year player who relies on his speed/endurance. Really believe he needs a rest and hope they do before Dreamtime
As gutted as I am, I have reached deep into my optimistic recesses and have pulled out Rioli.
A pure one touch footballer with the strength and determination of a player 10kg heavier. His speed and evasion are amazing but it's the work in packs and his ability to win contested ball and get a handball out is special. This kid is a champion in the making and I'm the first to admit I wanted Gresham from St Kilda. One of the very few times our recruiters have been smarter than me.

He was really exciting when he went into the middle. Maybe we got a look into the future there. I really hope we see him through the middle a bit more, the skill and evasiveness when he set Grigg up for the set shot in the last was outstanding.
Time for midfield duties.
We need a Michael Walters switch to the midfield like move for Dan.

If his body stays right I reckon his form is going to take off over the next couple of months.

In the last quarter, dannyboy's work rate was off the chart. He seemed to have a hundred tackles and major harassing-type events. and at THAT final clearance, he was running to the exact right spot (where he should have told to be standing), he just didnt have time to get there.
He's going to provide a decade of hope and joy.
and this week, of all weeks, we should celebrate the facts that we reached, and didnt take Josh Dunkley.
