- Division 2 player?

Footydraft.com comment: Had an impressive season with three bags of goals in high standard U18 matches, plus elevation to playing VFL for the Devils. Was apparently a bit of interest in him last year, he’s done well enough this year to be in the mix as high as a late first round draft pick.
