Player Watch #42 – Aidan Johnson (Pick 68)

[schmuttt]

The role of the 3rd tall isn't to be a massive goal kicker, we don't need one but if we do you'd rather a guy who crashes packs and has presence like a Rooke than a lead and mark forward

I get what you're saying but I reckon any average AFL forward does very well at VFL level.

17 goals from 20 games this year in the VFL, played in all 3 finals, didn't kick a goal.

Surely he's the son of somebody important at Dees HQ..

Edit:
Lol, those were the stats MFC went with to sell him to fans

I don't think he will be a regular feature in our best 22. It feels like he is just a backup plan as the club did not want to go into a points deficit to match the Riak Andrew bid.

Guy looks like a 75 year old.

I’ve never heard of him and haven’t watched his highlights but I love him. Might make him my favourite player

Solid choice - plus, if he never plays, his record will remain unblemished.
