#44 - Archer Day Wicks

My guess is no but let’s cross our fingers.

ADW is not quick, I think he ran just under a 3.2 at the combine. His pace is still afl pace and he compensates with his other atttibutes, evasiveness, kicking, marking etc. He will suprise many with his ability to read the play, make the right decision and kick goals out of his ar*e. Will be a pretty usefull player for us imo.

That is quite a trajectory. Good news for him, his family and a whole swag of supporters and Blitzers.

Make the most of it Archer. It seems to be the custom in th AFL generally for oppos to leave debutants un marked . Good news for a forward

Or am I imagining it?

Some one has to be injured for Day Wicks

Players dropping like flies this season

Gresham

Hope so

did he just say thats f**ked at 1.07 ? haha. Im sure he didn’t but i can’t hear anything else.

Seems like a great young lad - hope he kills it

If afl doesn’t pan out, with a neck with that girth he could slot into f1

He seems to have the body shape that could fill out into a Danger type body shape. I hope the kid can play.

This is the board and the coaches clearly stating that rebuild is happening

We’ve beaten north and west coast by less than a kick, time to try the kids

lol I can imagine that. Hmm we tried our best to lose and still managed a win. Any ideas? How about we swap out the afl players for the vfl ones and see what happens.

But Zak Johnson is a good player

Aha let’s leave him in the vfl and play all the others.

The only experienced blokes that’ll be playing VFL are Guelfi and Cox off long injuries, and Lav coming back from suspension.

I’d love for you to be correct, but juries still well and truly out for mine.

Still, happy times for the kid

Day wicks, Roberts, caddy, kako, Tsatas, Hayes… you don’t get any more ‘rebuild-y’ than that

Sure you can.
Like I said, I hope it’s true. I’m not even saying it isn’t.

But it’s going to take more than forced changes due to injury to convince me.

Some people won’t be happy until every first year player is in and there’s no one over 25.

I should hold my tongue until team selection because there’s every likelihood that we drop a kid for something that we’ve tolerated from senior players… but these two debuts give me hope
