Congratulations to Daniel. My favourite performances of his was making the Wolfman invisible in the 2013 grand final and also scoring a hat trick in Toowoomba. Such a lovely humble gentle soul and the only time I see him angry is with himself and not others. Unlike some..

I have been told this that the reason Parra cut him was that he was too tall and cumbersome.
They may have thought he may be another Phil Mann - Mann had no problems catching the bombs at 201 cm (6ft 7) tall - his downfall was the grubber kicks as he had trouble bending down to gather them.

Been great to watch him go from a discarded NYC player to arguably the most consistent winger of the past decade.
He’s never tried to be anything he isn’t, his durability in the position is unmatched and he’s performed in a position that seems to have had a change in job description multiple times throughout his career and at every occasion he’s always been up there with the best.
I remember when he first started out he was easy pickings and plenty were calling him soft, he went away and changed his running style and now he’s consistently in the top 3 wingers in the comp for metres gained.
Such a good story of humility and hard work. It’s a privilege to see players like him pull on our great jersey because our club is so much richer for having him represent us.
Congratulations on the 200, hopefully 100 more to come.
