He can do that.
You know, a lot of people are like, man, he wouldn't have done that if he was on the wing or at centre.
I'm like, mate, he does it every week.
you know like and that explosive power when defenses aren't ready in a quick pick and go he does have the license maybe not at 13. again this is like i think the one thing that i will agree with is seven allows him to do both the pod play and the winger do you know what i mean like it means he can play across the park yeah
license free.
Yes, absolutely.
Dom Garden does hang on the width quite a lot, so maybe not.
Maybe seven is the one that has the license to roam within their structures.
But I will agree that he couldn't have the exact same impact across the park
at 13 and 11 individually.
He could do parts of what he did really well, but he couldn't do both because he would then be breaking the system somewhere.
If he's at 13 and he's coming in doing pick and goes, well, who's playing the midfield role?
If he's at wing and then he's playing the pod role, who's on the wing?
So do you see what I mean from a structural system point of view?
The seven role actually gives them the ability
to do it all, but it puts him under a lot of pressure.
So maybe eight's probably better suited.
Maybe seven's the right call.
I mean, he's going to get better than the metrics that I've, and the balance of his play.
The more opportunity he gets, the coaches, you know, he's got Matt Todd there, you know, like someone that's pretty experienced at seven.
