I disagree. You shank the ball because you are panicking a bit, or because you are unbalanced - both relate to a feeling of lack of space/time (even when you have it!). At Sandy, he will get plenty of the ball, but have a bit more time to balance. And get used to giving good delivery. Remember, he went from U18 to senior AFL. Just give a bit of space for a few weeks. Do him the world of good.
