Very important going forward as he has a shitload of class about him. I expect him to kick something around 25 goals next season whilst also providing run in the midfield.
a couple of pre-seasons under his belt and he'll show the promise many people see in him. Did some good things this year, enough to see he has talent and is cool under pressure.
Not comparing in height, will play similar role and bring class and goals in future years
A lightly framed half forward Jackson Merrett was rewarded for a strong season with Bendigo in the VFL when he made his AFL debut in round 23 against Collingwood. Merrett has a great velocity for the contest and determination to improve coupled with silky skills by foot.
I see Jackson Merrett as ultimately replacing Winderlich full time over the next 2 years...it's a young Winderlich (minus the injuries) he most reminds me of.

Give him time. I'm sure the injuries will come with the right management.
