The developing midfielder pushed his case for an AFL recall with a polished performance in the Cats’ big VFL loss to Essendon at Etihad Stadium on Saturday evening. Suffered a slightly hyper-extended knee during the match, but was able to finish the game and should be fine to hit the training track hard this week.
