adonski 13,267 Posted May 20, 2024 Posted May 20, 2024 It's such a niche player to be linked to, it must be real...! A left-footer with silky skills, Ryan Angwin is a versatile footballer with a high footy IQ. After managing just one game in 2022 due to a fracture in his lower leg, Angwin added 15 games to his career tally in 2023, often used in a variety of roles by coach Adam Kingsley. A composed decision maker who is creative by foot, Angwin is also a great athlete, highlighted by his strong time for the 2km time trial. 4 3 Quote
spirit of norm smith 16,679 Posted May 20, 2024 Posted May 20, 2024 Umm. He wouldn’t be high on the wish list. Gippsland boy. The plus is he’s a good kick. After the last few weeks, I would be happy to have anyone that can kick the footy. 1 Quote
Swooper Northey 499 Posted May 20, 2024 Posted May 20, 2024 The challenge for the recruiting team ahead of season 2025 is to bolster our midfield. Right now we're far too reliant on Petracca, Oliver and Viney. A couple of quality, experienced mids to complement our current crop will be really important given how much we miss Brayshaw and how one dimensional we look at times. Add to that the need for smart recruiting that can land us some more genuine outside run like Windsor. With that being the aim, a kid like Angwin could be worth a look. 3 Quote
DeeSpencer 26,675 Posted May 20, 2024 Posted May 20, 2024 Soft as butter but at least he’s young and soft with potential to improve rather than our previous efforts of picking 28 washed softies 3 Quote
Gator 18,053 Posted May 20, 2024 Posted May 20, 2024 Had him in Fantasy last year. Needs to put on size, but very classy mover/left footer. Smooth. Quote

Gawndy the Great 9,011 Posted May 20, 2024 Posted May 20, 2024 Him and LDU and we are back in it in 2025. Trade up for a top 10 and go for another gun - not sure what would be high on our list. Quote
Little Goffy 14,963 Posted May 20, 2024 Posted May 20, 2024 Found the old draft profile. Crucially, there's no sign that he is related or connected in any way with Lawrence Angwin https://central.rookieme.com/afl/player/ryan-angwin/ I wonder how much the 'soft' impression is a product of simply not being strong enough yet? Treated as taking him with a late round draft pick, he might be a reasonable acquisition as we search for a future Langdon replacement who won't take any salary cap space until he's proven himself. We're going to have a truckload of list spots open at the end of this season and also likely to be pursuing a high value player or two to keep the shine on, so cap space matters. Quote
layzie 34,528 Posted May 20, 2024 Posted May 20, 2024 Looks slightly built. What's his contest work like? Quote
