Why’s anyone in the wifi thread when there’s so much of nothing going on everywhere else?
Good call. We will know at the end of 2024 whether Will has a future or not.
Thats fair, full season and now full preseason should be no excuse in 2024...still he's played more games than Dylan Smith?
He’s done enough as an underdone player to suggest he’s good enough
We'll know in 12 months
You’ll know in about 4 months pal
Will end up our Sam Mitchell.
Kids got it and will prove it.

Genuine concerns for this bloke going forward. Just don’t see how he fits in?
Can only play one position, is unathletic, below average defensively and below average disposal. Hasn’t really improved his endurance base either, should be finishing top 10 in the shuttle run if he wants to be a starting centre square mid. With McKercher coming in I think he gets pushed out and hard to see a way back for him.

His complete lack of fitness puts him at the bottom of the pecking order.
You can’t carry a single position midfielder who can’t run at the required level.

Yeah I've been doing some mock best 22s and assuming we have a good injury run, it becomes difficult to fit him in.

You think Mckercher is going to play as a centre square mid this year?
JHF on initial discussions with clarko - wants me to play half back
Sheezel, having never played half back, plays half back all year
Mckercher weighs 76kgs, and loves to run………. Im guessing he plays all year ……… half back
Even the most bullish will Phillips fans would have concerns
Will be a nice surprise if he takes a big leap this year

If he stays healthy, I reckon he's solidly best 22 for us.

Powell is personal preference on my part so agree to disagree there.
But if you’re sixth/seventh fiddle in your fourth year, there’s alarm bells.

I had Simpkin in my 4 with him
Powell to be the 5th but also wing rotation
Thomas to stay forward
Lol Simpkin and Powell aren't ahead of him to attend stoppages.
1. LDU
2. Wardlaw
3. Mckercher
4. Thomas
5. Phillips
6. Powell
That’s what I think it looks like going forward in terms of preferences. Sheezel and Duursma to play as forwards, Simpkin to a wing or high half forward.
Imo Phillips and Powell with need to fight for that 5th string midfielder position, and the other will likely peter out.
