Shithot good.

 

[Malifice]

Weitering then Walsh and Ed. Called it.

Was never in doubt. Congrats Weiterbot!

 

[FitzroyBlueBagger]

Absolute GUN...
Congrats Weiters killed it...
Walshy runnerup GUN...
Ed third fantastic year...
Plow and Jonesy top5 finishes...

 

[Sharks On A Plane]

Should have been AA last year but scarily, I think he’ll elevate his game even further in 2021.

 

[katmanblue]

Weitering is really stiff

Almost robotic

 

[BigBreakfast]

Plow a top 5 finish, who would have picked that? Gun!

 

[BigBreakfast]

Congratulations Weibot! Boy has become the man amongst men! Next stop, AA!

 

[Arr0w]

Close voting count, but Weitering deserved the medal. Trade him for a 2nd now?

And Plow another top 5, well done

Walsh well on the rise

 

[SurreyBlue]

Should have traded him when we had the opportunity......

Congrats Weiterbot. Worthy winner who beat direct opponent all year.

 

[Weiterbot23]

Excellent work!

I still feel he has got 10-15% left before hitting his ceiling

 

[OldCarltonKnows]

Throughly deserved, Weits had a brilliant year.

 

[thylacine60]

premiership teams are built from the backline...............

 

[Stamos]

Trade him for a 2nd now?

Definitely.
There have been some silly calls on BF over the journey, but that one was right up there.

 

[Stamos]

Absolute gun. Robbed of AA, rightfully claims John Nicholls.

 

[Neese]

Excellent top 5
And a big up yours to the AA team selectors

 

[Kernafides]

Hope the curnow haters disappear now...would be one of the first picked... those saying he'll be overtaken by our yoingsters this year will be sorely mistaken

 

[thylacine60]

Throughly deserved, Weits had a brilliant year.

except nothing got throughly him..........

 

[FitzroyBlueBagger]

Close voting count, but Weitering deserved the medal. Trade him for a 2nd now?

And Plow another top 5, well done

Walsh well on the rise

Maybe we can get a mid first rounder for a Weiters/Harry combo deal...

 

[FitzroyBlueBagger]

Excellent work!

I still feel he has got 10-15% left before hitting his ceiling

Generational KPD...

 

[Neese]

except nothing got throughly him..........

O no you didn't

 

[tarczonandjane]

I am thrilled for Jacob. Thoroughly deserved! Should have been All Australian too.

and obviously, prognostications on a player’s career are hard to get right (I’m sure I’ve got plenty wrong). But if a bloke is in his second year, and it isn’t quite coming together, maybe just hold off on the career obituaries for a little bit.

 

[Gethelred]

What an interesting ol' thread this turned out to be!

 

[Jeremias]

Well done Weiters - thoroughly deserved on the back of a fantastic season.

Has developed into an outstanding footballer and we haven't seen the best of him yet.

And the end of the yr i would seriously consider trading Weitering would get a very goid return from sides like pies, bulldogs

We have a backline full of slow KPPs and Weiters is the worst of them. There are your stats.

What is his worth if we traded him this year?

2nd round? SOS has a history of drafting goliath forwards. Weitering could be a monumental mistake.

I've got serious concerns that he is just too slow to play on a man, getting schooled by Mundy is not what we paid pick 1 for.

If we could get a top 10 for him in this draft, I'd trade him, we can rookie Sam Collins from the VFL as a replacement and draft a mid.

Not what any if us wanted but got to be honest on the list

Weitering is a 3rd tall at best not aggressive or athletic enough to play as a KP.

That 2015 draft was prprobably the worst in recent memory. Only Curnow, Oliver, Rioli, Mills, Burton and Gresham are worth note. Weitering wouldn’t be in the top 10 of that draft if it was repicked

Based on the fact he cannot win a one on one contest , and doesn't win any footy - not so sure about that

Thoughts and prayers are with you all on what must be an incredibly difficult evening.
