William Edwards has come into a Sydney Swans side which already had enough established key defenders to cover most situations, including premiership winner Joel Hamling who has mostly been playing VFL or as a forward swingman. Despite this logjam in the depth chart, Edwards has filled the full back slot across the last month with some aplomb, and looks for all money like a 200-game player of the future. With Dane Rampe the only tall defender for Sydney whose retirement is looming, he will have to fight for his spot for some years to come.
