Which player will make the leap to stardom in 2018?

[90N90S]

The AFL players have already given their views but who do you the learned posters think will be the breakout stars of 2018?

Some great young talent running around would be interesting to hear the thoughts from the BigFooty faithful.

Players picked Daniher last year and were correct, Curnow this year and I think i agree with them.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

It's so tempting to say Jarrad Waite lol.

 

[Dadda Dave]

lol

He does have a bright future.

 

[saintkildaman]

Billings

 

[JG22]

stringer

 

[MaddAdam]

Taylor Garner.

 

[Mofra]

Clayton Oliver

 

[Bazza97]

Nominating an opposition player, I reckon James Sicily is a smoky for AA at HB. Overall, he was quality in the 2nd half of last year playing down back. Should get a lot more recognition externally this year assuming he plays close to a full year in the back half.

 

[MaddAdam]

From opposition, Petracca, Not a wildly off beam call, but he's an absolute gun.

 

[Engimal v3]

Dustin Martin hehe (;

 

[Sinjin Smith]

Jack Viney, reckon he will kill it next year.

 

[Tempy Tiger]

From the Dees: Oliver, Petracca and Neal-Bullen.

Burton from the Hawks looks like he could quickly become a star.

Jack Viney, reckon he will kill it next year.

Jack is a bit limited in that he can’t kick it over a jam tin. Also coming back from a stress fracture in his foot. I’d be surprised if he has a breakout year.

 

[schmuttt]

Petracca.

 

[Milanista28]

Will Petracca play more mid than forward this year or still a 50/50 type of setup.

 

[Back One Out]

Over 21, 4th season: Isaac Heeney

Under 21, 2nd season: Tim Taranto

 

[Milanista28]

One from left field for me is Lewis Melican.

 

[Bazza97]

Will Petracca play more mid than forward this year or still a 50/50 type of setup.

He mentioned on radio a couple of weeks ago that he's expecting to play 60-70% of his time on the field playing as a mid.

 

[Brennan Huff]

Taylor Garner.

He showed some good signs last year....particularly against us.

 

[MaddAdam]

He showed some good signs last year....particularly against us.

No doubt on the talent, fitness is his only obstacle.

 

[Kicking Snags]

From Geelong I hope it's going to be Nakia Cockatoo but he will unfortunately probably keep getting soft tissue injuries all year.

My pick for the rest of the comp is Andrew McGrath, that is reliant on Essendon giving him more time in the midfield.

 

[Heaps of fun]

It's so tempting to say Jarrad Waite lol.

It's probably his actual last year. I give you full permission.

 

[Trav 20]

You have it the wrong way around.

He said 60-70% as a forward.
