Might pay to hang five on that.
Boyd may yet get picked up in the supplementary period which runs until sometime in February.
I doubt the Saints thought they were a chance at Dodson going as late into the 2nd night and obviously he was too good a prospect to passover at that point.
Bacs did suggest Dodson had an off field issue in the lead up to the draft, if that was the case it must have been pretty ordinary for him to slip that far, either that or recruiters weren't sure about his commitment to AFL
If Geelong or swans recruiting team don’t like Dodson, neither do I.

Can Toby Murray ever be a lead ruck at AFL level?
Golumless
A bigger deal out west.
Depends on how much value a team puts on ruck craft.
At a club that doesn't put a whole lot of value in ruck craft outside of just competing there? Murray has a good shot seeing his around ground game is rather solid for a potential ruck, plus a relatively strong forward game.
A club that does? Minimal chance.

Yep, GEEL were the pre-draft hyped team to take Dodson .....it was even suggested by Twomey they may trade up 4-5 spots to get him
In the end they stayed in their Draft position, yet still overlooked Dodson

He’s done some serious work in the gym
Obviously been reading our List Management forum on needing to draft a ruckman
The lad has a great athletic profile but probably needs to add another role to his game because it’s hard to see him breaking in to the team as a KPF

Am I right in saying that isnt a body for a ruckman?
I do rate Toby's potential as a tall forward who can also pinch hit in ruck, eg the role that Thilthorpe plays. Good to see him looking in such good nick. Hope he comes on and fills his potential as it would be good to have a quality understudy in case TT gets injured or misses a large slab of footy, as happened this year.
Thats an insane transformation in 6 months. Would have to be close to 15kgs difference in playing weight. Although im sure that will come down after another few months of running sessions.
There was discussion on one of the topic threads as to whether Tyler Welsh is 191cm or 192cm as he was listed at 192cm in at least one publication. Maybe the Crows don't even know. On the Players Page of the Crows website it has Toby listed at 200cm's in the top left of Toby's Page, but in the player bio information below he is said to be 201cm's. We may be splitting hair's, but interesting enough given the previous conversation.
Players tend to be at their heaviest at this point of the year, once their running loads increase and their in season he'll drop some kilos. Could easily have just come out the gym and had a nice pump.

Just for argument's sake, I think we need to see his left arm before we start jumping to conclusions
Those two shots are also taken at very different angles. You're always going to look bulkier from a side angle than front-on.
