Player Watch Pick #23 (2019) - Dylan Williams

[Chachi]

Should be played over McIntee surely.

I wouldn't play either of them at AFL level at the moment. Dylan definitely has better skills but doesn't work anywhere near hard enough on game day.

 

[Chrizzt]

Don't think McMinty is close to AFL quality, but at least he can run out a game. That alone gives him a spot over Williams at the moment.

Here's hoping Williams has a big pre-season and we get too see if he's actually got what it takes.

From what I've seen I think he is trying on game day, but just doesn't have the fitness or speed base. Its the off-season where he needs to work harder (and hopefully is).

 

[Jonts]

5 man bench would help him

Was dylan put into the middle last year?

he was kicking bags of goals and then it dried up mid season

Was moved to half back and played some good footy. A Rizonico-like revival as a defender beckons.

Liked for 'Rizonico-like'. One of the funnier nights was Gav's Testimonial when Rizza got up a made his 'speech'. Funny man and a wonderful Port Adelaide person.

Rizzo's been doing Power team interchange forever.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

He's baaaack.

 

[WillemDaDrew]

He's baaaack.

Not sure of his role in the 22, now we have Fantasia,SPP & Rioli.

But you'd think this will be his last chance if he can't at least get a gig in the main squad in 2023.

Two of those three will be lucky to make it out of a pre game warmup.


Very happy with this selection, shows we're not all about the fat and the broken skinny bloke forwards but were also about the uber talented blokes with no tanks.

 

[RossFC]

I'm expecting him to keep playing in the back pocket like he did in the tail end of the season.

Francis Evans probs will take that goal kicking SANFL medium/small forward spot he was in before.

 

[elbarton]

Having grown to 197cm, can he potentially hold down a key post? Freeing up Finlayson for full time ruck (/extra midfielder)

Yeesh

Considering there's only DBJ to contend with, the coaches should of had him there day dot to begin with anyways

 

[raptalia]

The first round SANFL side is going to be a rather interesting mix.

 

[all seeing eye]

The first round SANFL side is going to be a rather interesting mix.

Provided everyone stays fit, there's going to be some real pressure for spots. Looking at both line ups, League and reserves, you could easily change personnel around between both grades and it still looks Ok. Watch out DBJ there coming.

 

[Power Raid]

fingers crossed he works hard

 

[Windy Cindy]

Wasted pick. He isn’t going to make it. Not unless he has a lung transplant

pick a kid who might Make it

 

[Enviable Tradition]

If he doesn't come back in the best shape of his life he is no chance.

He should have been working that hard on his endurance it's not funny.

I'm with you

A decent sportsman at such a young age should be able to hit peak fitness in 2-3 weeks...........because they always keep a high base

the fact he isn't there, suggests he doesn't have the discipline or ability

I remember his debut game he was exhausted after running through the banner

 

[powerrrrrrrrrrrr]

good luck to him but most likely his last year on our list.

Don’t think he’ll make it unfortunately.

 

[P4Life]

To this day I don’t know what sort of player Dylan is. He was drafted as a mercurial forward who could jump on heads and kick goals from anywhere.

” like.
I just think he doesn’t excel in any one thing and with his lack of athleticism I don’t know what they do with him.
He probably has more talent than half the team but those same players have a 1 wood that they get picked for Dylan doesn’t unfortunately.
Hopefully he gets a few games this year and proves me wrong.
