WC taking their time... I guess they were looking at Jetta.

 

[Moo]

Some of you guys have no idea about recruiting so id keep quiet until we have seen these guys line up in the purple jumper and seen how they play. Getting ridiculous with a few of you "experts" commenting on who should have been picked up.

Its big footy mate - what were you excepting?

Pick 53 = Michael Walters!!

 

[stylor]

Walters, welcome to Freo! 53

 

[dominguez]

About time we got one of the Basso boys!!!!!!!!!!

Walters confirmed with pick 53.


Date of birth: 7/1/9
Height: 177cm
Weight: 75kg
Club: Swan Districts/Midvale JFC

Bio: A highly-skilled midfielder/forward, Walters has great ability with both hand and foot. He has good awareness, agility and can win the ball in contested or uncontested situations. An AIS/AFL Academy graduate, Walters represented Western Australia in 2008. From Midvale FC.

Jason McCartney says: Michael has just got exquisite skills and his balance is quite phenomenal. He's quite small, he plays in the midfield and a bit up forward and he's quite creative, but he also has a real hardness about his game. He's another left footer who kicks the ball well. We played him a bit in a back pocket for a couple of games with the academy and he really impressed. His closing speed to get a fist in and spoil was superb and then the way he set up and rebounded was quite phenomenal.

[PalmernPav]

your good call on us to take heyne with 21... he went 48....... nice name and team you support troll

Was never my call but Burgo's, I was only validating it. You were the one dying to tell everyone Robinson was a 1st round pick.

He wasnt, he was a division 2 star. Suspect disposal.

[pinkus maximus]

apparantly Walters arrived at draft camp overweight, so there are question marks over his commitment

 

[E Shed]
