Thanks.

What we DON'T need is another one-paced midfielder. Not saying we should knock back the FS opportunity but we have a lot who are just average pace.

I remember Scott West kicked 5 from a HFF against the Bombers at the WO early in his career and he looked like he had a bit of toe but later in his career he turned out to be pretty slow for a midfielder. Made up for it with great ball-winning ability and vision but we really do need some classy ball users in the midfield with a bit of zip.

I hope he's a better (longer) kick than his Dad too.

We need better inside mids to let the Bont stroll around and do his thing without having to ferret around in packs

Just something to distract from the Stringer/Richmond/Rhys Stanley kerfuffles...

Our senior list this year included:
Wallis
Hunter
Cordy
Cloke
Dunkley
Liberatore
Roughead*
Picken

* I know Roughy's dad never played a senior game, so happy to exclude him.

Has any other club had more sons of ex-players on their list in a single season?

It may have skipped a generation but Beveridges grandfather played in the 4 back to back to back to back Collingwood premiership sides.

Scouting notes from 15yo's (2020 draft) playing in our ng academy side from AFL Draft Central.

Div 1

Western Bulldogs NGA 12.6 (78) defeated North East Border 10.13 (73)

Western Bulldogs NGA 6.12 (48) defeated Peninsula Stingrays 7.1 (43)

Western Bulldogs goals: Clem Nagorcka 2, Kane Johnstone, Josh Carlyle-Marks, Ethan Councillor, Fergus Macdonald.
Peninsula goals: Adam Walker 4, Clayton Gay, Ben Tennant, Taj Westworth.
Western Bulldogs best: Clem Nagorcka, Fraser Marris, Jamarra Ugle-Hagan, Will Clark, Riley Nicolson, Nicolas Stevens.
Peninsula best: Clayton Gay, Thomas Crozier, Adam Walker, Henry Berenger, Flynn Hynes, Dean Ablett.

Speaking of Western Bulldogs NGA, the side remained undefeated from its two matches, knocking off Peninsula and North East Border – the two sides without a win from two matches. Both games were tight, with the Bulldogs’ side emerging victorious by a combined 10 points. Flynn Atchinson starred in the first game with four majors against North East Border, while Isaac Carey and Kane Johnstone were named as the Bulldogs’ best. In the game against the Stingrays, Clem Nagorcka booted two goals to be named best afield, with the 170cm exciting forward from Koroit showing off his class. A player that also caught the eye was South Warrnambool’s Jamarra Ugle-Hagan, who stands at 193cm, and along with Riley Nicolson (194cm) and Fergus Macdonald (196cm) are some seriously tall timber for the GWV Rebels in a few years.

DIV 2

North East Border 10.6 (66) defeated Western Bulldogs NGA 9.9 (63)

North East Border goals: Alex Bennett 2, Riley O’Kane 2, Jarrad Duncan, Noah Campbell, Regan Gorman, Rory Wapling, Tom Bracher, Lachlan O’Connor.
Western Bulldogs goals: Mackenzie Royals 2, Taylor Kennedy 2, Willem O’Sullivan 2, Benedict Howard, Matthew Schaper, Aaron Glare.
North East Border best: Riley O’Kane, Lachlan Peake, Jarrad Duncan, Ethan Roach, Alex Bennett, Hayden Weller.
Western Bulldogs best: Loris Bayly, Benedict Howard, Taylor Kennedy, Mackenzie Royals, Gage Wright, Zacc Dwyer.

Yarra Ranges 7.7 (49) defeated Western Bulldogs NGA 2.8 (20)

Yarra Ranges goals: Thomas Taylor, Angus Nelson, Max Renouf, Dylan Goldberg, Alex Green, Ethan Cochrane.
Western Bulldogs goals: Jack Christie, Taylor Kennedy.
Yarra Ranges best: Alistair Johansen, Lochlan Beecroft, Ben Grimes, James Somervaille, Harrison Keeling, Thomas Taylor.
Western Bulldogs best: Trenton Severino, Finn Lappin, George Simpson, Luke Spalding, Sam Chatfield, Siddharth Rajesh.



Western Bulldogs NGA were competitive in both games but went down to North East Border by three points and Yarra Ranges by 29 points. Taylor Kennedy finished the tournament with a team-high three goals while Mackenzie Royals, and Willem O’Sullivan booted two in the tight loss on the Tuesday. Loris Bayly and Benedict Howard were named among the best with Kennedy and Royals in that game, while in the final day loss, Trenton Severino, Finn Lappin and George Simpson were named the Bulldogs’ best. Of all the players, Logan Hayles might well be one to watch develop, with the Carngham Lions Linton prospect already 198cm and 70kg after turning 15 in August.

How does this work, do we have dibs on all the kids in the team or do we have to just select a few of the kids as options to draft?

We only have dibs on the indigenous/multicultural players that we nominate. There is a mix of those and other juniors playing in the teams, as each club now has its own zone to try and nurture and increase talent. I would imagine probably 10% of our full academy members fit the criteria to be eligible for drafting to us with discount/priority access.
