✕ AVOID

Setterfield hasn't played a game and remains injured at $487.9k — an enormous outlay for a midfielder with no 2025 scoring data and a 72-point BE to clear. Essendon's midfield is deep and competitive, making his role uncertain even when healthy. Far too risky at this price point.

Will Setterfield recalled to Essendon for Johnson. Community divided — some happy to see him, many frustrated he gets games ahead of younger players like Tsatas. His injury reliability questioned; likely only 1-2 games before breaking down again per some commenters.

Community Intel· T3

Setterfield returned in the VFL vs Gold Coast — started with a brilliant spoil but struggled with the pace of the game after Q1. Community notes he needs more time to shake rust off after his absence. Not yet forcing AFL selection.
