An athletic 199cm ruckman from South Australia with room to grow who had some injury concerns in 2021/2 ~ Will Verrall

“… his best, Will Verrall is as good as (Harry) Barnett. So (AFL) clubs are doing some work on Will Verrall now based on what he did as a 17-year-old, knowing it was at a really high level.” - Tony Bamford SA Under 18 State Coach.

Poor man’s Jack Fitzpatrick. With development resources tied up in Jefferson, Adams and Big Kyah I’m a little surprised we went for a rookie teen ruck after years of not making it a priority.

So to be fair, Verrall is an upgrade.

Unfortunatly Jack Fitzpatrick had health issues and never reached his potential due to the fact he was a diabetic which meant he always had to watch his diet and insulin levels.

In 2021 Aaron Bradtke was the project ruckman.

Will Verrell looks further advanced at this stage.

Only 1 year since Bradke delisted not "after years of not making it a proriory".Kyah  is this replacement not Verrall.
How many years has Verrall played?
