Next up is Bolton.
Shai in his fourth season of AFL played 19 out of a possible 21 games to take his career tally to 47. He played more midfield time in 2020 and had his best year statistically despite the shorter-length matches due to covid. Ultimately, Bolton would pick up a second premiership medallion at the age of just 21.

How did we all rate Bolton's year?
-
Brilliant year. Showed what a talent he is. Deserves enormous credit for the way he played this year.
-
I gave him an 8
Was a revelation when he went into the midfield.
Looking forward to seeing in there more in the future
Have to say it was a great read in the HUN this week about him being drafted. Especially around how long we had our collective eyes on him
-
8, with 2 more only really lost on consistency.
This guy is 100% the new Edwards, albeit with even more lateral movement. Crazy hands in traffic and some of his goal kicking was ludicrous against Saints in the SF.
Clearance work has been a revelation for the club. As a mid/fwd if he can get 20+ touches a week he would be AA IMO.

How he didnt make the Best U22 side is hilarious

Says a lot about those representative sidea. All Australian etc. They arent worth the candle.
-
His brilliance in the middle saved our season. 9 from me. Only didn’t give him a 10 because he had the odd quiet one but that was mainly due to finding his feet when shifted to a new position. Hope he gets lots of on ball time in 2021
-
Would have given him an 11 if I could have.
He was as good as anyone we had this year.
-
I think he has learnt a lot from Shane Edwards, very similar with their traits
-
Bolton is streets ahead of where Edwards was at the same age....granted he's playing in considerably better sides than Shank was back then......:shh

22 today :birthday.
