Quote: Budenberg "Shad struggled badly throughout the first half of the season and it was clear he couldn't quite get his head round nuts and bolts stuff like calls, timing and positioning. In defence too he was caught out and targeted by the opposition and that becomes abundantly clear on re-examination of some of our games. The player himself admitted he found it extremely hard to adapt to first grade.

cant say I remember him struggling particularly. thing to remember early season was he was either swapping between standoff and FB to accomodate kearney or playing in which isnt his strongest position, and also playing in a team which was struggling in general.
