Player Watch Brayden Sier (Delisted 2021)

[GoalSneak07]

What a find he has been this season. Adds another dimension to our midfield that I didn't think we had before this season started.

Has he been nicknamed yet? If not I propose "Titanium" after the Sia hit single a few years back, fits his mold perfectly.

Bear

That’s his nickname and it’s stuck

His potential is through the roof.

Tall
Big Body
Pendles like awareness
Good disposal by both hand and foot
Decent pace - not fast, but not slow either. Fast enough to make him formidable
Clearance machine in and under

If he can get a clean run at it injury wise and get a proper 100% full pre-season into him with some time at the gym thrown in, he'll be an AA smoky next year.

You do know that his 20m sprint is quicker than Stephenson's?

 

[Vicky Park]

I honestly can’t say what surprised me more this year - us making the GF or Sier smashing it at senior level. I know it should be the former, but the way Sier went about it and the traits he showed - gobsmacking.

No I did not

For me it’s the gf, always thought he had that type of game in him.
But he still has a lot to learn, and more importantly get his fitness up significantly

was reading an article perhaps early last week and the were saying that he is actually super quick and that he just hadn't shown this in game yet. which I found interesting.

Has a quicker 20m sprint time to Stephenson.

Has a quicker 20m sprint time to Stephenson.

Fitness and 50 games will see the full Bear unleashed.

Correct. Hard to sprint fast when you're knackered. 55% game time in grand final or thereabouts, needs more fitness. When that happens - look out.

Has a quicker 20m sprint time to Stephenson.

dead set ? wow. if this guy can get fit we could really have a genuine star

 

[Rohan25]

Averaged 63.8% game time across his 12 games.

Played 66 minutes in the Grand Final, a full 35-40 minutes less than most WC mids.

Huge upside if he can increase that fitness base. I hope he’s preparing for a punishing few months, it’s a necessity to bridge that gap.

Averaged 63.8% game time across his 12 games...

75% has to be the bear minimum in 2019

I also wonder if the plan was to manage his minutes for max impact.

The plan must be to lengthen his on ground time as he matured as a player.

Obviously he is very valued internally.

Looks like a huge gem here.

I see what you did there.

You bearly disguised it.
Your forebearance seems about right, perhaps you are a seer sir.

 

[Chrispiesssss]

Would love for him to develop his over-head and contested marking. De Goey and him swapping through the midfield and forward line would be amazing.

Similar to one, Dane Swan? Makes sense to me

Once upon a time the Bear found his inner mongrel and all was great forever after.

Other midfielders just have to go to the change rooms. The Bear has to go all the way to the woods!!

Getting fitter could help with all those things too
