Dawson and Stringer have different presentations. Stringer is energetic, strong and elusive, while Dawson is a more composed deliberate player who doesn't show much emotion out on the field. Dawson is a strong mark and very good long accurate kick of the footy. We played him a lot at the centre bounces on Saturday, not his usual position, which was clearly part of his development. I think we are in the process of rounding out his game. He seems like an intelligent player and a good decision maker. He has that size where he can be useful in many positions. I feel he will end up as 3rd forward option, many because he can nail set shots from beyond 50. He could be more like a Jack Gunston type than a Stringer type. He's done very well in his 2 NEAFL games.
The kick to handball ratio for both teams is very high - us more so. Is this normal for NEAL calibre teams?
