A move from defence/wing to wing/attack didn't really work for Rohan Bewick in 2017. Disposal efficiency of 65% told a tale, as did the fact that he played more NEAFL than AFL, including being unsighted in the seniors after round 16. Soft outside receivers have to have linebreaking pace and/or superior skills to survive in today's AFL, and Bewick doesn't possess either of those assets. List management these days is brutal, and it looks like he's for the chop when his contract runs out after 2018.
Bewick is no Boris
