Player Watch #6: Caleb Windsor – the kid just has 'it'

[Scythe94]

Just going to pin this now – please keep posts on-topic and relevant, or thread bans will be handed out. This is getting silly.

Or perhaps it was a very, very clever goal assist.

"Fooled everybody"

Billings gets the goal assist for the handball, silly Les, silly.

G'day Dees nice win tonight. Thought I saw young Windsor holding a child during the team song, is it his kid or another family members?

He's 18 mate he doesn't have a 3 year old.

Correct answer is no one knows .

Checking in with the beloved BF neutrals to see if I'm being OTT with Windsor (I'm not)

Windsor is a stud. Scary prospect for them.

Caleb Windsor just has 'it'

Windsor a rising star chance ? ( good Lysterfield Wolves lad)

Good so far. Lightning fast.

Windsor moves so smoothly that it's hard not to think of another champion demon winger when you watch him play.

Windsor is a player!

Windsor is a classy player.

Chandler is another Dees young gun along with Windsor.

That new number 6 for Melb looks good. Windsor

Windsor looks the goods too.

Caleb Windsor looks quality.

Windsor is so clean and uses the ball so well . No wonder he went pick 6.

Windsor worth a flutter for the rising star.

I said to get on Windsor (and Wardlaw) 2 weeks ago at $15, into $13 now, im sure he'll come in more on the back of tonight also

Re: Rising star... Reid has been fine, but there is a fair difference between he and Wardlaw from what ive seen over these two rounds (to be expected as GW is a second year player) Prices are: Reid 3.50 Wardlaw 4 McKerecher 5 Sanders 5 Walter 13 Windsor 15. Think the value is in Wardlaw and Windsor, Wardlaw should be clear fav imo.

His composure under pressure is excellent. Doesn't always come off , but for a 5 game veteran , a very promising start .

 

[LeverPuller]

The comparison to a certain other Melbourne winger…can we kick JVR out of the 2?

Interesting that Kingy, who probably puts as much time into his analysis as any media expert, said this morning that Windsor looks as talented as any player in his draft so far.

He must've missed all the errors some on here have astutely picked up on.

Yeah but when Kingy said he was a fan of him I did have to consider that I might actually hate Windsor now

 

[dazzledavey36]

See, Kingy gets it..

King singled out draftee Caleb Windsor as one player who has come in and made the Demons stronger in 2024.

The 18-year-old put in another tireless shift on the wing, picking up 16 disposals to continue his strong start to his debut season.

“This kid Caleb Windsor has come in. I think right now, Windsor at Pick 7 has been one of the great selections,” he added.

“We’re only a month in, it’s very early, but he looks like he could have been a Pick 2 or 3.”

Dont use Karen King as proof of my favourite players being good. Ill start questioning myself.

Mich, Dan, Boss, Kent and Rude will all be singing the same hymn book if this keeps up.

I've always looked at them as fair, balanced and reasonable #args

Just shows you that it's still hard to tell with 18 year olds. It also helps when these high picks go to established teams rather than rebuilding teams. There was just no expectation on Windsor to impact so early on. Another example of a good pick going to an established team was Selwood (also pick 7) when Geelong had one bad year but were already a good team. I'm not saying he was the missing piece, just saying he wouldn'thave had the same first year had he gone to Carlton or a bottom team.

They really should form a clique.

... actually, I think he reminds me of Stan Alves... maybe Langers number coming up soon enough.

He's not in the Flower class just yet.

While were on numbers, How about giving the number 31 to Mr Petracca... much much more like the Barassi styled game; than an outside type wearing it.

Howes, Mcvee, Windsor.

I agree with everything your saying but that's probably a bad example lol reckon Selwood was a bit Nathan Jonesy in that he has a great career anywhere. Bloke clearly motivated himself.
