Welcome Ollie. Looking forward to seeing the number 35 get a run next year as you light up our forward line.

Plays taller than he is and can play small. Looks versatile.
I think hes like many Vic kids a victim of not playing footy last year and if he had could have gone much higher.
Ultimately I think it was down to him or Connor stone and dependent on who of the 2 GWS took.

This kid reminds me of Jack Gunston. Great hands and composure and goal sense. At ease at either end of the ground.

Make up your own mind...

The kid can take a grab! He looks like a natural footballer. I'm pleased we nabbed him.

A touch of Pendles about him too. Split second decision making, sometimes holding off for rhat 0.5 sec fake.
Enjoy yourself. Its later than you think!

I’m sold. Football smarts, both sides of body, goal sense, strong mark, runs to the right spot, defensive pressure, WANTS to compete, smooth and straight set shot routine. Add some size and could be a great addition inside 50.
