Gonna go out on a limb and say Knightmare will match Daicos
North select Zac Fisher (Perth/Western Australia) 175cm 70kg
Fisher is a smaller type but has a number of good noticeable traits. Despite being 175cm/70kg, Fisher wins more than 40 per cent of his possessions on the inside and uses quick hands to dispose of the ball from stoppages.
He has good pace and is not afraid to take the game on which is something I feel North need a bit more of, especially with Boomer retiring. While he has primarily played off half-back, Fisher has been able to play through the middle and up forward, kicking six goals in 10 games and averaging 18.7 disposals in the WAFL.
Most importantly, Fisher has that experience against senior bodies so if required he could fill a role from round one, but it is likely he will work on his kicking a little more. Up forward he could be more damaging to start his career, and he will likely move into the midfield down the track at AFL level.
Anyone who watched Western Australia’s game against the Allies in the National Under 18s Championships would have been impressed with Fisher, and he continued on the good form to win WA’s Most Valuable Player for the tournament.
He is a good value pick here as many of the West Australians are not always given as much coverage as other players, but I feel Fisher could develop into a fine utility.
