Yeah, Josh, good to speak to you, Reid.

Look, well, I have won the battle for now.

It doesn't mean that I won't lose him again.

But, yeah, look, Ashley's a fantastic player with ball in hand or reading the play and then being able to set us up with his speed and ball use.

So I'm glad to have him back.

And, Joe, Fonte, I think you're right.

I think at the moment he's going into that transition of potentially looking after some pretty dangerous forwards for the opposition.

But, yeah, his next level, I think, with the speed that he has and he'll get a bit more experience, he can certainly add to that mix for sure.

Yeah, I can confirm that at some stage he'll run past him.

Look, I think we'll put some time into him.

And it depends on where he's playing.

If he spends time as a forward, we might have someone to try and look after him there.

And if he's through the midfield, then potentially he might go a little bit head-to-head to start.

But we'll have plans pretty quickly to try and clamp him if we can, if that's possible.

Yeah, he's been a great pickup for us.

He's come in and he's sort of learning a little bit of a different system as well.

So, I think he'll actually probably, well, I hope, play better footy in the second half of the year as well.

But, look, he's very strong.

He's a good one-on-one player.

He's a good communicator.
