Was underwhelmed myself watching this video. Most of his possessions downright missed their targets or were the wrong ones. I think i saw him kick 3 drop punts the whole vid the rest were wobbly shanks. Burned off team mates as well in better positions. If he wasnt 194cms he wouldnt be getting spoken about as much as he is.
I'm personally not getting the pick 1 hype. Not a lot of contested ball on display for a supposed 194cm midfield "bull". ONE tackle for the match. He doesn't look that quick either, just positions well in possession chains.
I had questions about his pace and movement before this season but those have been answered for me. He's got lovely balance and a nice side step, enough pace to put distance on his marker. The only question I have is his dedication to defensive pressure at stoppage. He's a bit of a kick chaser right now.
Of course it matters. If the majority has an opinion that differs from yours that might suggest to you that you've missed something or you need to take a second look. Its all data at the end of the day. It doesnt mean the majority is right of course. I'm not saying you're wrong, we wont know for years yet and that's part of what makes this caper so enjoyable.

@@footystuffYT I wouldn't go near him with a top 5 pick.
Fair enough. I think he's the clear number 1 right now and that seems to be the general consensus.
@@footystuffYT No disrespect mate, I love your work, but consensus has no meaning when it comes to analysis. Consensus is a political term.
