Yeah they cut it off! Was wanting to see it too, was a bit like in R1 when he sucked in Libba 

It was really similar, in the sense that it was near the boundary and Libba just stopped in his tracks - good get.

I don't recall his ability to feint, evade and have so much time being highlighted as his assets when drafted, and i dont recall seeing him display those skills that often in the VFL games.

I wonder if he is the sort of player that is better the higher level he goes to because the pace of the game is so much faster and suit his natural skills, for example because there's more super high pressure situations where elite evasive skills and instinctive quick thinking is required more often.

Only a week ago many were suggesting both he and JVR should be dropped / rested, now JVR got a rising star nomination and McVee his own thread.

I think it’s more simple than that Binny. And I think it all stems from confidence. A great pre-season, coaches paying you more attention and having them trust what you can offer, and suddenly, bang, Judd feels so much more confident in his own abilities. He now feels confident he belongs, and those innate skills that you mention are suddenly able to be let loose.

I remember always playing 3-5 shots better in pennant golf than club golf. Same in junior tennis - better tennis v better players.

A couple of decades having witnessed many premierships, perhaps 4 to 6.

I love the way he just glides across the MCG surface. 

Different gait but similarly light footed as TJ.
