Still just 17 years of age, Bontempelli is a tall midfielder with great endurance and the flexibility to play almost any position on the ground.
After playing a lot of his career floating across half back and pinch hitting forward, the Northern Knight dominated as a midfielder in the second half of the 2013 season - showing his cleanness and proficiency around the contest, and the balance to receive the ball on the outside and finish with his damaging long left foot.
Bontempelli has enormous upside, and famously gathered 50 disposals and kicked ten goals in a school game for Marcelin.
The utility will join former captain and teammate Nathan Hrovat at the kennel after being selected with the Bulldogs first pick (4 overall) tonight at the Gold Coast convention centre.
