Toast Church of Prudden

[Bulldogsnm1]

Since it's apparently a weak draft, we might just take 3 in the deft. Fuller and Darley seem to be certain delisting so and we will probably see a player during the trade period.

Why on earth would you want to delist Darley.

Surely the writing is on the wall for Minson, Cordy, Fuller.

I still think next in line is Prudden. Other alternative is to delist Smith and then rookie list him.

Darley is 22 and hasn't played a single game this year. JJ, Biggs, Webb and Prudden are seemingly ahead of him.

 

[cleveland]

It's hard though because we are going to have delist 4-5 at least so who do you drop ahead of him?

maybe re rookie

 

[Bulldogsnm1]

Darley is 22 and hasn't played a single game this year. JJ, Biggs, Webb and Prudden are seemingly ahead of him.

Darley didn't start playing until mid May this year due to injury. Has only played 8 games total this year. His disposal is first rate, I would be surprised if he was delisted.

Prudden was pretty good today. I like him, he's building into games nicely. Good skills, neat, tackles well. Definitely gets another year, or more particularly, another preseason, to see whether he can get a bit of his burst back. Looks to me like a carbon copy Boyd replacement though, when Boydy eventually calls it quits.

 

[Bazza Bulldog]

Thought the 'holy one' was excellent in close today. His best game in the red, white and blue. I now believe he can become a permanent fixture in the team LT.

Prudden the king of the 1%ers very morris like

 

[Fossie 32]

Nice smother early in the game to save a goal

 

[DognBones]

Deities usually grow their devotees starting with minor miracles, the bigger ones will undoubtedly follow.

This blokes left foot is a bullet. Wouldn't mind him in the midfield more delivering into 50. Gets another year for mine.

Look at the good work that Boyd is doing in the backline - not because he is quick or plays tall, but because he has very good contested skills, never panics, and works very hard. Thats Prudden in two years, but with super footskills.

He's got a very good right foot as well. It's not just his disposal as well, his vision and decision making is very good. Surely stays on the list.

 

[Dog Rising]

This bloke is growing on me. He's like a Dale Morris quiet achiever. He might not get many possessions but I don't think any if his opponents will either. Going along well quietly. Does the basics very well.

 

[RedWhite&Blue]

Yep I'm starting to believe in this kid.
He's got that concentration level that the best backmen need, similar to Morris, and his kicking is great.
Really like him

 

[King Harold]

Would keep Prudden before Darley . Its fairly simple ,he is just a better footballer and I think the club will be thinking the same.

 

[VitalDread]

Welcome back to the bandwagon people

 

[Mofra]

Needs 20 games to really build up his confidence as a rebounder.
If he can get back to the creativity he showed earlier in his time at the Bulldogs (albeit at VFL level) we've found one.
Definitely played himself into a contract extension though - the way he plays gave us the luxury of subbing off Moyd for a rest.

 

[cleveland]

Didn't notice him at all yesterday but I was sitting near the roof so probably explains it!!

Im a fan and although he hasn't done much at afl he looks to have sometime to work with!!

Deserves another year for sure

 

[Eliteflyboy]

His bullet left foot was on show a couple of times yesterday. Also kicked with his right too. Surely he is next in line when Moyd retires.

Prudden does look very composed and has neat skills off the HBF. Never going to be a star (imo), but could be one of those solid, reliable guys that coaches love. I'm still calling for him to be sent back to the VFL this week, purely because we have great depth and guys coming in who I feel are better suited to what we need / want to get going before finals (Hamling, Jong).

I'm just going to reiterate that Beveridge and the staff will have some very tough decisions at the end of the year. Neither Darley, nor Prudden deserve to be de-listed, but I feel one will. I'm not getting caught up in the "weak draft" talk, there will be players all the way to pick 60 and I don't want to restrict the amount of picks Dal has at grabbing some more gems.

Surely after two injury riddled seasons, Prudden deserves to be on the list with what he has shown in his 4 games. At 21 he would be a better bet than a 3rd-4th round pick (though Dal can find them). Darley off list. I would consider putting him on the rookie list.

 

[GreatSouthWest]

Big up to JP. I'm not massive on him but he's a goer and is improving each week. He's more value than a 3rd/4th rounder in the draft right now so he stays on for mine. Good work Quasimodo.

 

[goodcop badcop]

Prudden has shown enough to me that he's up to it and I think he has more upside to come. Barely had a pre season yet and has more to give as an inside midfielder yet. His ability to handball whilst being tackled and then to still be able to find a team mate in space is special. Would keep him on the list for sure.

 

[doggies ftw]

He really does have great disposal on both feet doesn't he? Starting to really really like him.

 

[Dog 36]

J.Prudden has quietly gone about his job and is slowly building since his debut.
