Past 43. Will Setterfield - Traded to Essendon*

[FlowersByIrene]

Setterfield is as good as Dow and SPS once he gets fit and may be even better. This is a HUGE get

 

[Ninja Worrier]

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.

Better comparison than Watson

THREE?

Walsh, and Setters will hopefully played 60 odd games.. add Fisher, SPS, Kennedy and O'Brien with natural experience and development the midfield will be a force. To complement Crippa of course

 

[HARKER]

What I really like about him is his decision making. Hits targets all the time whether by hand or foot. Also works incredibly hard both ways. Has it all and perfect foil for Cripps. Hope he has an injury free run

I like how quick and cleanly he picks the ball off the ground.
Not quite Fisher-esque, but he's very sharp for a bigger guy.

Setterfield is also handy forward and when he can share the load with Cripps, we'll find more goals coming from both the guys when 'resting' forward.

SOS just said he will be in full training after Xmas.

As long as he gets really fit and over his injuries I'm fine whenever they play him. Need to think 10 years with this bloke.

Hoping to be conservative from here and get Walsh and call it a day.

 

[Blue Reaper]

Happy to be patient with Will. Has poise, vision, size and skills. Could be a real jet for us.

 

[ferrisb]

If we had pick 1 in 2016 we would have used it / bid on Setterfield...






... And we would have been surprised he lasted to our pick

 

[Blue_Fusion]

Not only is he a gun footballer, but he also had the brains to come to us. He knows we've got a very strong set of kids and he will get to grow and become part of that group. 2020 can't come early enough. That's when we'll be starting to make our move.

Important to recruit good decision makers

Listened to the same interview. Excited to hear that Setterfield will likely be ready Round 1. Barritt tried hard to coax SOS into further comment about trade action. Don't really care to be honest. Super happy to see Will at the club. True hybrid mid for the modern game and can go forward and kick goals. Welcome young man.

 

[BIGGUS 64]

Setterfield of Dreams....

If you set 'er up, he Will come.

 

[Blue_Fusion]

Cripps will love playing alongside this guy in a couple of years time especially.

 

[Red Bull]

The top players always seem to have that extra time and make the right decisions.
Setterfield seems to have that extra time and seems to make the right decisions.
Tape yourself to Russell son , work hard and cement yourself in the rising team of the next decade !!

 

[chelseacarlton]

I’m so happy!

Welcome Will and all the best now your with us! Rapt this was done today and didn't have to stew over the weekend

This is what I was looking for. Straight back into AFL if fit, doesn't need to spend time in the 2's to build up form and fitness. Round 1 lets go!

Cripps, Walsh, Setterfield, Dow, Kennedy, SPS, Fisher is the best young midfield this club has ever seen since the mosquito fleet.
