Re: Players who desperately need to make a leap in 2024
I knew I remembered him saying that he'd played midfield before......:
Williams added: “Two years ago I played midfield against Geelong. That was a surreal experience coming up against Joel Selwood, Patrick Dangerfield and Ablett. It was amazing.”

That aside, you could hopefully write an updated version of the same article this year about Bailey.

Re: Players who desperately need to make a leap in 2024
I am hoping Sam Darcy takes a huge leap in 2024 and successfully challenges Rory Lobb for his position in the side.

As supporters we should have known that Darcy was going to take a little while to develop but if we look at Marra's rapid improvement this year we should be really positive that Darcy will come on in a big way.
I'm not sure we desperately need him to take a huge leap but if he stays fit that might get the sort of footy into him that we need.
Garcia, Bedendo, Cleary, West, Khamis and McNeil really need step up next year and make the most of their chances.

Re: Players who desperately need to make a leap in 2024
I would like to see VDM take the next step. He has teased us a few times and then copped an injury. He needs to be settled into a role and make it his own. He has pace but decision making lacks a little and needs to deliver the ball accurately.

Re: Players who desperately need to make a leap in 2024
The players I would like to see take a leap are Bedendo and Buku. Both are on one year contracts so this is probably their last chance.
