Overall

Scrimshaw's biggest appeal is his ability to play in multiple positions.

He has the height to play as a key defender, while his agile and wiry frame means he can also shift into the midfield.

He moves through traffic well and has brilliant evasive skills and a good burst of speed given his height.

However, he does need to work on his man marking in defence, as he is often easily outmuscled and outmarked.

He also has a terrific left peg on him an d can roost the ball a long way, however, his short passing often lets him down and he does need to improve on his accuracy at times, however, in general he is a good ball user can certainly find the footy.
