I’m thinking that’s conservative. He’s unlocked new levels of belief with his 2 ripper finals performances.
Unless he starts playing midfield I reckon he’ll average 2.5 goals a game next year. Not many teams will have a good match up for him with the way he moves.

I'm trying to not put too much pressure on the kid but honestly I don't think pressure is something the Wiz is overly concerned with
Anything above 40 goals would be an amazing return for a second year small forward really.

If he kicked straight from the star he could have kicked 35 goals this year from 18 games. No reason to think 50 goals isn't possible next year,

Not sure what the **** he's supposed to do in that situation? Magically stand-up so he can be tackled properly? Another case of Ralph being clueless.
I think he played for it, but can't help but wonder did Ralph spend years writing hit pieces on Joel Selwood's games during finals series?
Wiz got down with his head over the ball, he was always going to get some kind of high contact. He accentuated it, but it was happening either way.
I must have missed those columns from Ralph on Selwood.
People need to learn how to tackle him. Watson knows if he goes hard they will get him high. He isn't even doing the Selwood shrug or anything in that one. Free kick every time.
Another very good performance from Watson. I think he didn't have as big an impact defensively this week but that is partly because we didn't get it deep inside fifty often enough. Not for lack of any effort on his part.
I copped it in our lads footy group chats about drafting the wizard early. The same mates giving it are now very very quiet.
He's gonna be a star if he isnt already one. 18 goals in the last 8 games. He keeps that form up, he'd track for 50+ , and he's only gonna get stronger, faster, fitter and more comfortable.
Insane talent.

The 5 mins following that his first two goals might have actually lost us the match. He had Bergman a bit tormented and we really needed to get the footy deep. Instead our forwards higher up conceded four really easy intercepts in a row, to some pretty basic defenders it has to be said and the moment was pretty much lost.
He was about to unleash, everyone in that ground knew it but we couldn’t get him the ball.

I hoped we’d get him throughout last year and he’s my favourite player that we have drafted since Cyril. Joy to watch already and will be a superstar of the competition and club’s dream from marketing perspective. 7 goals in 2 finals as a first year player is extraordinary

No mention of Horne Francis actively headbutting an opposition player's legs and getting a free.

Did the knob highlight Rioli almost dislocating his neck when he threw himself multiple times without being touched.
He doesn't like Hawthorn and it's either been very, very difficult for him to try and conceal it over the years, or he just doesn't rate people highly enough to think that he has to.

Frighteningly I think he has another level or two to go .
Great to watch , 3 absolute clutch goals from not a lot of opportunity last night .

The account that made the humility works comment literally opened it as a burner to make that comment. Then another bloke with a city of hard knocks gone to prison bio threatened him. flipping lowlives

Now cmon Ralph that’s been free kick for 100+ years, why post this rubbish.
Would rather you post on Ken the campaigner being a campaigner

Wiz should of just played a straight bat with that one.
Troll he responded to got the response they wanted.
But Wiz is young and still a bit raw to this stuff. He'll have to get better at this and I'm sure he will.
