If he does more than 85% of pre season he’s a chance to play round 1, less and he will be managed. It’s how Andrew Russell does it,and it’s how we’ll do it going forward.

What ever happened last year with injuries / player management was an abomination, which is why we would have brought an actual expert in instead of the staff member who was playing make-believe high performance manager.

Goldsack says hello
I'm not sure you can compare a 20 year old whose played two games to a 31 year old whose played 150+ games.

This is the trade of year. If this kid is as good as reported, he will support Cripps and Kennedy long term on the inside as well as develop/grow with the group. I love this trade not for what we gave up but what it brings to the group! Importantly he is 2 years older then current draftees......

******* better be SB ………. Really hope Russell can do something with this kids body … I keep hearing that they are all impact injuries and not a definitive "weakness" per see ….. time will tell.
On paper I'm excited ……. lots of water to pass under that proverbial bridge.

He is like a bloody "grey" man Soap … there is stuff all media about him …..
No pressure Will. At least from me.
Hope he can get a full pre season and 18-20 games next year then everyone will see what he has
What is great is he will improve with SPS Dow Fisher Kennedy Cuningham all around the same time. This lot step up as a group, watch out. Then you have Walsh & O'Brien following close behind

Was extremely happy to hear in his interview with SEN that he's looking to get through the practice games and be ready for round 1, regardless of whether we decide to put him in the seniors or not.

I don't know why people donate Williamson to this bracket:;;I think that Williamson was set for a Breakout year extending to the midfield as well before he got a stress reaction in the back.>> up until that point his preseason was one of the best in the club in as far as developing his physique and fulfilling is athletic attributes>. And applying those to a running game that would have seen him as one of those players who breaks lines and gains 80 m.>> & see him doing midfield rotations in part too
Apologies in advance Antonio - I know it was a joke but I cant let this misinformation slide.
There is no such thing as 'Strawberry Blonde Peroxide'.
Hydrogen Peroxide (Peroxide) is not a colour nor is it a bleach.
It is the Catalyst that is mixed with Powder Bleach or Permanent or Demi Permanent Hair Colour.
This Catalyst activates the ingredients in the above products and starts the colouring process.
If Zachy wanted to have strawberry blonde hair he would have to bleach (activated by Hydrogen Peroxide) and tone.
However I seriously recommend that he (and everyone else) does not try this at home and leaves it to the professionals in Salon.
Rant over.

A GWS assistant coach was on the sen last preseason, a few weeks before sett did his ACL and said that he was the one to watch for a break out season for 2018.
Add that to SOS bid at 5, Essendon both considering him at 1 and trying to get him this offseason.
Lots of hype around the kid, could be the best of our lot!

Setterfield was more of what Essendon needed than Shiel........and a truckload cheaper.
It may have taken a couple of years to get there, but I wonder if Dodo is just a little sour this morning, given what he had to shell out for Shiel.
Anyway, given the quality of the player I remember, Setterfield will be more than just in contention for a round 1 start. He'll be there.
Just don't want our new midfield coach to be too tricky. Let's just get Setterfields and Kennedys bodies right and they'll handle themselves well.

The ceiling for Dow, SPS, Setterfield and hopefully Walsh seriously projects as 4 legitimate A-grade mids if all works out.
We have a realistic chance to add that to Cripps and create an elite midfield.
Spine: Set
Midfield: Forming
Small Forwards: the cream will be last...but Polson amd Owie is a good start!
