Didn't watch the game. How did Delaney look? Am hoping he succeeds at his new club.

 

[MotleyLemon]

I love Macrae, looks an absolute jet in the making.

Stringer too.

If those two come on, and so does Bontempelli, the Dogs are going to have a very serious midfield unit. Great range of styles through there too.

Delaney and Bruce both beat their opponents. Crameri was barely sighted.

 

[Kawalsky]

Wheres Blake Acres? has heaps of potential

Gee, a few people went early in this thread. Thought we did ok from 33-0 down. A few of the younger guys did good things, and the newer players started to have effect. New coach, new players.....was ok for starters.

 

[Tragic sainter]

best player on their list.

Disagree, I still think riewoldt is the best player on our list.

And I stand by that comment, the lopsided umpiring in the first quarter helped the Bulldogs jump out to a 5 goal lead and then we got back into the contest when the umpires gave us a fair go.

Maybe you should be directing your condescending derision for the morons in this thread who said we were hopeless with no good youngsters after the first quarter and then vanished when we fought back to win the last 3 quarters with our youngsters like Wright, Webster, Curren, Templeton and Hickey leading the way..

But why are you so mad?

We played one quarter and cruised*

Isn't he meant to be highly talented? Bit of a waste making him another tagger.

He's not highly talented. Good accumulator.

I thought Wallis was taken ahead of Libba.

 

[Dazb86]

I thought Wallis was taken ahead of Libba.

He was. Libba has always been better at AFL level due to his elite inside game. His outside game is getting better too, barely misses a target which is rare for an inside type.

Wallis will be a best 22 player and a solid player but not a star. Has no great strengths or weaknesses to his game but can rack the numbers up.

 

[doggies ftw]

I reckon he will be a bit better than a solid player, his 2nd year was great, a bit lost last year but we were trying to develop his outside game which doesn't come very naturally to him. Does his best work on the bottom of packs and will be a great Boyd replacement for years to come.

 

[ManOfClay]

Some of Wallis' handpasses are great, very adept at releasing a player into space.

Doesn't have many more standout features though.
