Windhager

Post: # 2059177Post terry smith rules »

For me one positive out of the rubbish this year in Marcus

Has shown in the last couple of games that he could be someone to build a midfield around

Turns 21 on Thursday and has played only 45 games.

In the last few games has shown that ability to drive through the stoppages with power and acceleration

Yes his disposal could be improved (has Cripp’s kicks ever been brilliant), but generally I like what I’m seeing

He is doing the #2 proud

He reminds me of Lachie Neale sometimes, the way he gets the ball and knows where to look, rather than Seb and Crouch who always go bang without thinking

I think he will be top flight. He looks good with the ball and knows how to get it.

His ferocity, his fitness and his courage is enormous. We need more players hunting the footy and winning clearance like Windy.

Loves the heat and loves pressure.

His ability to find the ball is elite. Just needs to work on his disposal and trying to get on the run sometimes instead of kicking the footy at the first opportunity.

I'm sure that will come with experience.

The main thing is... that if St Kilda make finals in 2025 and beyond, we know we have a player who is ready for finals footy.

He’s been great! I can see him being a future captain.

Windhager is a big part of our future. Lose him and we’re truly stuffed.

Agreed on all points.

Shaping up to be a bull of a midfielder. Wins ball and can be defensive.

Has potential Captain written all over him
