> Plays forward off the ball too much – doesn’t push back
> Goes missing for long periods and doesn’t win enough of the footy – lacks footy smarts? and reactionary playing style
Other
> Unusual kicking technique – closed off action but manages to get good power and distance into his kicks
Overall
With Heyne you’re buying someone that has genuine X and hurt factor and exciting match winning attributes, but is inconsistent throughout a game and over a season, poor under contested pressure (AFL is becoming more and more uncontested which will be of assistance to him) and a real chance of being a complete bust. There is quite significant upside but a lot of flaws that need ironing out. A mid to late 2nd rounder would be the earliest I’d be willing to at least consider taking such a risk.
