Player Watch #29: Will Phillips - 20d/12 tackles in VFL vs Brisbane - does he come in vs Hawthorn?

Who makes way for Will?

None of this "bailey scott for Will" rubbish please. One is a skinny running wing (being forced to play def) while the other is an inside bull.

Realistic options?

Any bench player. He can just come off the bench and be part of midfield rotations it's that simple.

We're 0-5, I'm sure we could shuffle the deckchairs a bit.

I'm all for a deck chair shuffle, but he has to replace a midfielder because he cannot play anywhere else.

Probably wishful thinking but couldn't help but think the timing of this might suggest he plays this week?

I know there is a great danger that Will may actually be a bust. I’m still hanging onto to a slim thread of hope that he will come good. In some ways, he reminds of a taller version of Caleb Daniel

. Maybe, even, Sam Mitchell. However, right now, there’s nothing to suggest he’s fit to lace their boots. If Will gets selected, it will give me renewed hope that Clarko thinks he’s got what it takes. That, in itself, would be wonderful news. For some reason, a lot of us just plain like Will Phillips.

Putting aside WilPhil for a moment, that clip shows what an incredible coach Emma Kearney is going to be.

That video’s awesome. Half of my family are teachers, and that profession’s not for me, but the pitch was as good as any.

We should all earnestly hope that Will can “cut it” as an AFL player. The excellent leadership attributes that he would bring to the table would be immeasurable.
