Season in short:

One of the pre-season standouts, Jack Redpath was disappointingly sent back to the VFL after a round one call up.

Despite that, Redpath fought his way back in through solid VFL form, and returned to the senior side in round 14 – not missing another senior match for the year.

By his own admission, Redpath found consistency for the first time in his career, after injuries had previously hampered his career.

The key forward created contests, presented well and produced a ferocious attack on the football.

The 24-year-old’s most dominant display came against Port Adelaide in round 19, picking up 13 disposals, nine marks, four tackles and four goals.

Stat that mattered:

Redpath collected a career-high 10 tackles against Geelong in round 18, highlighting his work rate and pressure as a key forward.

What they said:

“It’s been good to finally get some consistency in my game which I’d sort of lacked in the earlier years through a couple of injuries but I’m just loving the ride and I’ve proven to myself that I can play at this level, there’s still a lot of things I need to work on, but I’m confident that next year will be another good one for myself.” – Jack Redpath, September 2015

“He was fantastic. He was really disappointed that he went out of the side early in the season and once he dealt with that, he played some really consistent VFL footy and really set himself up for the back half of the year and showed that he can play at the level.

“He’s got a presence about him, his teammates like playing with him, he’s aggressive at the ball and at the man and the opposition know when he’s around, that’s a great strength to have and he’s able to hit the scoreboard as well. He’s obviously got things that he needs to work on in his game but he should look forward to a big pre-season as that’s a really good base to build from for next season.” – Daniel Giansiracusa (Western Bulldogs Assistant Coach), September 2015
