It wasn't the easiest of afternoons for Windsor and Melbourne against West Coast on Sunday, with the Demons falling to last year's wooden spooners by 35 points at Optus Stadium.
The young wingman was able to contribute on the scoreboard with one goal from his 13 possessions, but the emerging Demon wasn't too clean with his ball movement, going at just 46% efficiency.
Two kicks went out on the full when the Demons were looking to get the ball going forward, proving costly in a disappointing performance for the Victorians.
