This is the problem with how they adjudicate Goals and Marks of the Year.
You may get two potential Goals or Marks of the Year in the one round (which has happened) and the "lesser" of the two gets knocked out and essentially forgotten.

One thing I love about young Will is that, like a lot of our current mids, his impact per possession is ridiculously high. His ceiling if he can stay fit is one of the highest in the AFL, a combination of the best traits of Fyfe and Bont. Love watching him out there.
Will has been building very nicely since his return. Our midfield looks top tier now. They are all performing at a level that can match it with the best now.
I've been a fan of this lad since he played his first few games. I am confident he will become one of the best players in the comp in the near future. Love his attitude, his courage, his talent and I am certain he will become a great captain of our club.
He is becoming the new Hodge. Not the brutal warrior that Hodge was but the versatile, football savant who has an enormous influence on games.Let’s hope he becomes the new hodge. No pressure
When you are right, you are right
*Sorry Milkshaker, just thought Cooper was an amazing player to pick given he ended up on our list!

Just watching the Hawks v Brisbane replay. Day kicking to Gunston in the first (13 minute mark) on his left boot, taking the bloody piss.
We are a different team with him in the side.
Every team needs its A-Listers. He is probably the best player on our List and is capable of being Top 10 in AFL.

I am not sure they do, he receives a lot of praise from them. Think everyone rates him very highly.

I think anyone who appreciates pure footy would certainly appreciate the way he goes about it.
His football brain is next level. It's rare to find a player who not only sees the game like a jedi, but has the skills and ability to directly impact at a core level and bring everyone else along with them.
The recruiting team needs some recognition for his selection. I have to admit, I was pretty concerned when he was drafted. He was the skinniest afl player I'd ever seen in his first year - every time he went into a pack I was waiting for him to break off into a dozen pieces Credit to him, he's bulked up massively and seems to have a huge amount of core strength to stand up in tackles and dish off handballs.
Scary / great thing is, he's not even close to his prime yet!

Any lingering concerns I had about his build were put to bed when I saw him up close recently.I think anyone who appreciates pure footy would certainly appreciate the way he goes about it.

The most recent listing I could find has him at 191cm and 83kg but to my eye he looks easily 193/194cm and 88/89kg.
He's a deadset unit these days which is nothing but a credit to Will as like you say he was so, so skinny when he was drafted (mind you even back then he was totally fearless).

Caleb Windsor reminds me a bit of Will Day. The way he moves but also seems very brave, skilful and high footy iq. Will be interesting to see how his career unfolds.
Great article in The Age today...

A “cool connection” with a Hawthorn legend has helped this young star emerge as a driving force for the Hawks.

You can see with Day he believes he can go to half forward and be that guy when required to take a mark. Hopefully his set shots improve which is main fault. I don’t want to say what past player he compares too but we all know
