Best and Fairest winner before the age of 21 in just his third season, moral All-Australian, Essendon record holder for most possessions in a year, elite inside & outside game, tackling pressure, the list just goes on. Nothing short of multiple Brownlow and Norm Smith medals in this kids future no doubt.

Paul Salmon kicked 63 goals in 13 games in his 2nd season.

But I have to admit - The Bummers have a lot to look fwd to with Merrett, Francis, Parish, Laverde, Daniher, #1 2016 and OH-Razio.
Some very good yoof.

Paul Salmon was good yes. Leave it to the Hawfies to include Essendon players in their team of the century.

Won't happen with Zachy though.

Yeah WTF happened there?

Kid goes alright, bit behind Bonts though
Bont goes ok. Seems to have plateaued a bit though of late. Merrett's continuous improvement in a team with no support is second to none. With Jobe and Heppell helping him out next year he will be unstoppable.

Cameron and Hogan went pretty good.

And so did O'Merara before his knee was stuffed (Imagine how good he would have been but for the knee)
O'Meara is probably the closest to Zach tbh.

Expect big things from him in 2017 :thumbsu:
 
With a dozen of your better players out so he should win the bnf. Next year he might scrape into the top 10

That's the amazing thing. Dominates in a team of inexperienced youf with little support. Imagine how good he is going to be next year!

Scary.
