Thank god. Seems his past rep performances are helping him here after the shit he produced against Asia.

Of course that was going to happen. Was gonna post it, but thought that a Victorian collapse isn't much of a prediction.
Genuinely thought we could have gone without a single point. Thought we may have pinched a couple through the comp via big individual performances from Davis, Erschoff and Eggman, but to get it like that, in R1, is nice.
Needs to be excellent with the gloves week in week out to be worth picking imo. His batting form is good, which means he'll hang around for a while, but when that drops of he'll really need to make sure his glovework is up to scratch. Absolute liability with the bat when not in form.
