I thought he was good too.
He's still learning the trade.
I reckon he'll probably be our first small forward chosen next year and Durdin and Owies will struggle for games.
I don't think it's viable playing all three when one may provide all we need in that respect.
I'm also liking him spending a bit of mid-field time in the VFL.
No need to rush him back.
It might be better for his development to keep working at his craft in the lower competition with a couple of games in the seniors towards the end of the year.
Learning the midfield caper in the VFL should be good for his development ... and good for our depth and adaptability next season.
