2023: The dynamic small forward booted 17 goals in his second season as a Roo, including a career-best four-goal haul against the Eagles in Round 20, all of which came in the second term.
He racked up a personal best for disposals with 17 against the Power in Round 9, using one to craft a ripping goal. He topped it a week later however when a slotted a beauty from the boundary line against the Swans to place him in contention for the Goal of the Year.
