In round four, 2008, he gained a NAB AFL Rising Star nomination for his role on West Coast Eagles onballer Daniel Kerr in a match the Swans won by 62 points (their biggest win over the Eagles since 2000). In the same season, he also shut down the likes of Shaun Burgoyne and Luke Power in games the Swans have won by considerable margins.
