2007 has proven to be a challenging one so far for this ex Adelaide Comet. Having previously played as a defender - Josh, who rates winter as his least favourite season - decided to make a move to the only position that allows you to wear gloves & full length pants. Stepping into the formidable (and let's face it - thankless) role of goalkeeper - Josh continues to refine his technique under the watchful eye of Whites goalkeeping stalwart - Dan Aikin (keep an ear out on the training pitch for those dulcet tones of constant 'encouragement').
In the tradition of great keepers before him (Grobbelaar, Schmeichel, Bresolin) - Josh has already proven his ability to "bring a man down". The trick now will be to repeat those efforts sans red card.
Among his many highlights - Josh rates his clean sheet against Unley in his debut season 2006 right up there. With a bagful of clean sheets to his name already in '07 - things are looking on-track for our man "between the sticks".
