Past 43. Will Setterfield - Traded to Essendon*

[Malifice]

Rated pick 1 by us according to ep...which means it's true.

We had SPS rated at 2 or 3 that year and bid on Setters before selecting SPS so that sounds right for mine.

Club has been watching him very closely for a very long time.

Itll be a slower burn than what many want but in a few years he'll be in our bests most weeks IMO.

Watching him he just reminds me of Bont or Watson.

Absolutely stoked with this pick up.

Can someone confirm - did SOS say in an interview 1/2 days ago that Setterfield is already in training at the moment?

The ACL was done in February according to an AFL.com article. Would be great to have him up and running for the start of pre-season, if only for non-contact drills.

Wouldn't be surprised considering when Doc did his was around Jan and he was running around round 22.

We have done extremely well in this trade period. Setterfield will be a star. How awesome will our midfield be in a year or two. So happy with this and didn't cost a fortune either. Well done SOS.

Posted this a few days ago but it also belongs in here ...

@skinnylappin
Blues fans get excited. I coached against Setterfield in his 1st NEAFL game and he is a serious player, on the way back the Baggers.

His first game in the NEAFL, three goals and at least 25 disposals.

Awesome news, another piece of the puzzle put in place..

 

[Arr0w]

I have mentioned this a couple of times, reminds me of Mundy when he works through the midfield. Is a smooth mover, skillful both sides and reads the ball extremely well.

Setter on fire

Love is a Setterfield.

He's going to be a gun

 

[Blue For Life]

I sure have. Im sure people couldnt believe i wanted him more than Shiel. But this kid i believe will be something amazing! F work... im going for beers to celebrate!

100% agree, has a lot more upside than Shiel.
Only thing that has held him back is his injuries. Let’s hope he can remain injury free and we’ve got a genuine talent which didn’t cost much.
Good luck Setters and welcome to the Blues.

Welcome aboard Will.
Over to you Mr Russell

 

[HyphensBack]

Welcome Will

.. this kid can play thru the middle and so I am suitably pleased - over to Jack Russell to get him on the park.

 

[Jeremias]

Brilliant. Welcome to Carlton, Will.

Andrew Russell has his first major project. Excited to see the results.

Wouldn't be surprised considering when Doc did his was around Jan and he was running around round 22.

Spoke to doc at B&F - said he could’ve played last 4 rounds if we were in a better position. Both should be cherry ripe for preseason.

 

[Robbo's my hero]

I’m happy hope you’re happy too.

Welcome aboard Will Setterfield.

 

[BIuebagger]

Highlights vid shows he isn’t slow, but not overly quick yet very much has that trait that Bont, Watson and Mitchell had/has; when he has the ball, it seems he has all the time in the world with it and his evasiveness to get out of tricky situations is very, very good. Add that to the frame he has. Can play.

 

[I bleed Blue]

Welcome.

Our core group of young players are extremely talented.

Just need to add a few pieces around them and get games into them.

Setterfield going to make Shiel regret his decision when he is a premiership player

 

[ferrisb]

Is he going to be a gun when fit?

Yes. Yes he Will....
