First half review – Josh Drummond

“This year with Taz’s emergence we’ve been able to pick and choose with our matchups rather than Scooter just taking the big key forward.

“He’s done jobs on (Josh) Kennedy, (Jack) Riewoldt, (Jeremy) Cameron – for the most part he’s done really well. Overall he’s had a pretty solid year so far.”

Second half review – Josh Drummond

“’Scooter’ probably had his ups and downs. At times he typified our team in a way, but again his ability to compete and provide leadership was very important.

“It’s not something that shows up when you’re watching the game but it’s still crucial. He’s another that will benefit from a free run at it heading into 2016, and it’ll let him work on certain areas of his game.”
