Re: Welcome to the WBFC - Toby McLean
Happy with this selection.
Where do we see him fitting in, with quite a few similar sized blokes who can play similar roles?

Re: Welcome to the WBFC - Toby McLean
Looks like it frees Dal to move into the midfield.
BB.
Looking forward - Naughton, Darcy and JUH. It will be the envy of everyone.

Re: Welcome to the WBFC - Toby McLean
Love this selection, can see him playing in the midfield in the future. Was a great improver throughout the year.

Re: Welcome to the WBFC - Toby McLean
Certainly a clever footballer
Very good one on one - super aerialist for his height, very clever around goals, good vision, kick etc
How did he test athletically?

Re: Welcome to the WBFC - Toby McLean
Really looking forward to some high flying grabs and excitement from young Toby. Toe -Beeeeeee !!!! (We will have to create a special cheer squad chant for him).

Good Beep, poor sprints and agility. We need to look past that I guess.
His story of getting too us is a great one.

Looks a bit like Jamie Elliot from Collingwood. Nice highlights.

A story of great persistence - After being overlooked as a bottom age U18 by Stingrays he kicked 50 odd goals and won a senior B&F as a bottom age U18 player right? Thats pretty amazing at 70kgs
