Fair, he must of ran hard to patrol the wing from half back and that's extra credit to the man!To put it to rest I went through the Kayo replay and checked every centre bounce. Here is the info.
- Day did not attend any CB on the wing.
- Shiels, Howe, Phillips, Bramble were the 4 that rotated through there.
- One CB deep in the last quarter you couldn't see one of the wingers as they were not in camera shot.
- Another CB deep in the last quarter you couldn't see either winger of ours in camera shot.
Fair point.The blue dots are the actual disposals. They are all over the defensive 2/3 of the field. There are just a few more on one wing that causes the heat map algorithm to call it a cluster but the disposals are mostly evenly spread.
Sounds like he has good pace to, must have for a defenderSounds a bit like a young Hartigan
Exactly what I thought. We need another key back.Sounds a bit like a young Hartigan
Mate i know Day didn't i pay careful attention to the players we play in the middle of the ground and the way we setup. Thanks for checking thoughTo put it to rest I went through the Kayo replay and checked every centre bounce. Here is the info.

You don't have to ask me twice.There was a lot of behind the goal vision from that game showing exactly that .
It was the start of Joey Montagna's love affair with us and mutually mine of him as my favourite media person
This toddler was clearly playing as a defender but can also run both ways
Could play Wing - might be one of those toddlers that doesn't have to run as far as the other toddlers because of how smart he isThis toddler was clearly playing as a defender but you can also see can play both ways

Bit lighter than Billy is these days.Has a reverse skill similar to Billy Hartung.
Can be inconsistent. Swear he was taking a nap at the start of that twilight game last year. But pretty hard on himself afterwards. Spat the dummyHas a reverse skill similar to Billy Hartung.
He's a Whitfield clone. I've said it all along. He also rolls through the wing at times.
Moves identically. Just hope he can develop a tank like Whitfield, probably unlikely as Whitfield is one hell of a runner. Day has already got him covered defensively though.He's a Whitfield clone. I've said it all along. He also rolls through the wing at times.
Really like to see Day put on some more weight, does anyone know if he looks a lot bigger this pre-season?Moves identically. Just hope he can develop a tank like Whitfield, probably unlikely as Whitfield is one hell of a runner. Day has already got him covered defensively though.

If Will Day is as good as we think, this is the equivalent of moving Hodge to the wing. Madness!
The thing about day (and hodge) is that he is a match winner and play maker. Fine to be on the wing for some of the time but it can be hard to change the momentum of games if the ball just isn’t getting out there. I think he will be used in multiple positions, wherever he is most needed to turn the match. Pretty much the way we used hodgeNo it isn't, because he's a different kind of player to Hodge. Day is better suited to the wing than any of our current options.
MacDonald the better match for Mitchell, I think.Have massive optimism Day and Ward could be our Hodge and Mitchell for the future
