Player Watch #12 Angus Sheldrick

[BloodySwan]

Simply put: it's time

he too deserves the pain of a grand final loss

Simply put: it's time

Said the same thing to my brother at the game. I get why he didn't get a chance this year but if we're going to fix this clearance shit he's the only one on the list that can do it.

Sheldrick is the most fiercely competitive kid you’ll meet.

He’s part of what we need. Some inside mongrel and a burst of clearance speed.

If we lose him because of Horse and his stubbornness, I’d be a mix of angry and shattered.

 

[Kiama Chris]

and the times Sheldrick has played Longmire stuck him at half forward.

That's not a bad place to start. No-one plays big inside minutes early in their career. Just needs to get on the paddock.

 

[Wazowski]

If I were him I'd ask for a trade just to get away from us

But should be him, Rowbottom and Heeney at the first centre bounce next year

Who does he replace?

Honestly I still think that if he was drafted in say 2018-19 he would have been experimented with more earlier on in his career. He missed the window where Horse would play anyone.

Alas he was drafted into a year where we made the GF all of a sudden. But time to unleash him.

Did better in the sprint today than many who actually played.

Starting 22 next year - game 1. Same with Cleary.
Same with Adams.

Don’t care who goes out, take your pick as today’s 23 are never winning us a flag.

Caleb strong did. Jai Newcombe did.

No one plays it if the players there are really good or if they aren’t injured. But hawthorn showed that if you get rid your existing players the new ones can do it through time and experience. With hawthorn that meant a losing season.

But with us given that our mids can’t win it at the coal face anyway maybe it’s irrelevant

I’m absolutely not expecting Sheldrick can do what Neale was doing to the level he was doing it yesterday, but if you watch Neale’s quick hands and ground ball winning and explosive run from contest to contest, that is what we need at least to a serviceable level. The only player on the list who you could argue could provide it to some level is Sheldrick. He’s gotta have a massive offseason and make himself indisputable for round one.

 

[JackHiscoxWasFast]

Gotta start Round 1. 6th fastest sprinter in the AFL as well. Dude will leave if we don’t give him a chance. Tell him right now he’ll be a lock if uninjured.

 

[KingV23]

If this bloke is fully fit and doesn't play round 1.....boy oh boy wowweeee

 

[Adnico26Parker]

I think this’ll be the first off/preseason where he’ll be almost 100% fit (last year he was just coming back from that nasty ankle injury).
