Player Watch Welcome to Hawthorn pick 13: Will Day 2023 PCM!

[My Left Foot]

I think #30 suits him, but wonder if the club will give him the #9 when Burgoyne retires.

 

[VandoHawk]

Bring him back. Bring him back.

With both Frost & Day out it was hard to enjoy the small things

Yeah I agree it was hard to feel invested. The only sense of pride I got was in the performance of Scrimshaw.

I would love to see Day being given the number 16.

Should get his Premiership winning Grandfathers number 12

 

[Halways]

I reckon he'd be pretty keen to wear his Grandfathers number. This guy ...

It would be a nice touch. For a nicknames take it would be funny if he could get the #40 so we can call him WD40.

 

[TallyHawk]

Should get his Premiership winning Grandfathers number 12

Should be available next year too if we are bold.

Thought he pushed to hard to early to prove himself ....so I got were Glacier was coming from .
Today though imo he let the game come to him and just played each contest on its merits .
Imo his best game so far .

Was very noticeable that his teammates see him as someone they should get the ball into the hands of. Perhaps a combination of growing trust from the senior players and the fact there were additional younger players in the side today (who would know how good he is from playing the reserves games with him earlier in the season).

Expecting to see his possession numbers increase as his teammates continue to look to feed him the ball.

 

[Roger Rogerson]

Isn't he incredible plays with absolute freedom. Nothing is predetermined just goes and goes and goes. What a gun.

 

[matey]

When he is near the ball or with it ..... with his zen and skills just love watching footy.

 

[tommyk72]

Was particularly impressed that after a few average kicks early in the game he just kept at it. Didn’t drop the head and sulk our go into his shell. So much class.

Surly the kid wins a Rising Star Nomination this week ️

 

[HODGEYROAD]

Had some toe on display that I didn't expect to see, kid can move.

Surly the kid wins a Rising Star Nomination this week

Someone from the GC had 10 possession this week.

 

[HeHateMe]

Hard to ignore him this week. Also he stacks up incredibly well against some of the higher regarded nominees would be a travisty if he missed out altogether.

Day - Anderson - Serong
Disposals:
15.3 - 15.4 - 16.3
Efficiency:
73% - 63% - 67%
Score Involvements:
2.4 - 3.2 - 2.1

Loved seeing him be trusted with the kick outs. There was one where it went out of bounds but it went 60m. Can’t wait till this kid grows into a man cause he’s actually got a bit of an aggressive side and once he has the body to back it up look out.

 

[matey]

Clarko and the coaches put your structures and systems in place ..... but for Will give him a license to do what’s natural.

He will make some mistakes and learn but keep encouraging and backing him as he can break the game open with his style of play. You cant teach this!

[Davo-27]

Just wondering how Starcevich gets a rising star in front of Day ???

Because Starcevich is also a really good young player...

 

[theiaofseed]

Because Starcevich is also a really good young player...

Did you see the game he got the nomination for? Third year player vs first year player

 

[Hodgey09]

Has kept tuning into Hawthorn games enjoyable this year and has made me very glad I don't recruit for Hawthorn. Never would've picked a kid built like that in a million years, so watching him this year has made me think thank * I'm not in charge of who we pick up. Was phenomenal to watch yesterday in the context of how many games he's played and his build, seriously watching him he looked like he'd been a Hawks and AFL staple for years. Freak.
