I like it.
He did a fabulous job on Hill. From a match-up perspective he would be ideal on Motlop if Cats get through, however for the Kangas I think Boomer may have a bit more guile and a stronger body - Wells would be suitable to his size/shape. That said Wells will be in the Kangas mf rotation more and so his match-up will be more likely Kizza, whilst Harry could go to Greenwood or Wright.
I realise they are huge jobs to undertake for a youngster still starting out but he seems well equipped physically for the role especially on the lighter bodied flankers / 'outside' midfielders. Importantly too he also forces the taggee to be accountable as he can get away quickly and hit the scoreboard - he's smart and accurate in front of goal.
A great way to learn the game too.
Of course he can still be released and go forward occasionally and create some havoc. I'm liking the balance of the team and kudos to the coaching staff in showing faith in him above ROK.
