An early candidate. From Yoda on Big Footy:
This was a video from his break out game last year but injury curtailed his 2025. Missed the 2025 drafts and became ineligible for an SSP spot (apparently?) trained with Port but could not be taken earlier this year. Started this season just where he left off, a 203cm, 21 year old midfielder accumulating ruck, Alex Van Wyk.
He’s a good kid and was sad when we lost him but the club did what was best for him and let him go to North. He can play, good footballer
Do we even have any list spots for a MSD selection?
It’ll be nice to have the first selection that’s for sure we need anything extra we could get
Nope
Got nervous there but then I realised we have cultural leader Will Setterfield on the list instead of an open spot
What are the odds nobody is injured long term before the MSD???
You just know that we won’t have a pick at the MSD and then 25 minutes after it’s completed some one will go down with a LTI at training
I was just thinking this
He wont even play this season which is laughable.
Can we draft a state or local leagues coach to take over from brad?
Meanwhile pick 1 who we pass on will become the best player of all time
Gee, I’m sure one of our players will agree to come down with a long term injury in exchange for a contract adjustment.
No way should we just leave the #1 MSD pick on the table.
We will probably delist and then relist Setterfield.
If we have pick 1 in a mid season draft with some of the guns that have been previously uncovered, and we can’t take a player it would be a huge blunder (completely understand it will take a LTI) but it would be a huge miss.
Setterfield will be asked to retire
Tricky if Scott is playing him in the firsts…
how dare you that is brads son your talking about
Been some gems uncovered like Newcombe and even Durham. If we have pick 1 we must find a way to draft, exactly the sort of bonus mechanism we need to continue our full blown rebuild.
There isn’t really a player you could tap to retire.
