Meredith was selected to take on Essendon in round two, but spent the majority of the season in the reserves. Close to a recall several times, groin and hamstring niggles halted his progress. Showed an ability to get forward when he played two games late in the season and will be keen to bring an end to his injury setbacks in the year ahead. Coaches' call: 2011 was … Injury interrupted. He got his opportunity late in the year but he had missed so much football that it was hard for him to run out games. He is a good decision-maker with nice skills. Preseason has been … there has been a big focus on him getting fit enough to handle the intensity but unfortunately he got injured again, hurting his hamstring tendon. He has just got back into it in late February and has a bit of catching up to do. We hope in 2012 … He has got to prove that he can be more durable. He needs to get through all the training and play game after game to get that consistency. Draft history: 2007 NAB AFL Draft 2nd round selection (Sydney) No. 26 overall.
