Abbey is still only 20, I don't think its unreasonable that he doesn't have all of his game worked out yet, he should drop back a grade for a bit, but he hasn't done bad given the circumstances imo.
Exactly. The kid hasn't played 10 first grade games yet. He has the potential and will vastly improve. Look at what perserverance has done for Elliot. Kids need time to develop. They don't come into first grade playing at SOO level already.

We should keep Abbey at the back until Hoppa is back. Hopefully Hoppa will play Sundays otherwise Abbey will not have much of a chance to work on things before coming back into First Grade. Can only see Des playing Abbey or Hoppa at the back this year, unless both unavailable. Yes he gets dominated and yes he needs more size. But he is attacking the ball more in the last few games and to me that shows he is a quick learner.

The problem with Abbey putting on any size is that he losses his speed and he's not exactly fast to begin with.

Some players don't skip a beat in first grade like Montoya and Frawley, at this stage Abbey doesn't have it and I don't think he ever will.
