Gilbee's role at the Bulldogs hasn't changed for three seasons and he remains one of the competition's best running defenders. One of the competition's best users of the ball by foot, his ability to find targets over long distances has helped him build a reputation as one of the best at launching attacks from the back-line. A player who finds so much of the ball as Gilbee could be forgiven for allowing his opponent to have an impact, but Gilbee's knowledge of when to run off his man makes him still one of the most accountable defenders in the game.
