Guess it's all going to be speculation til we see what he can do. One thing I like about this scenario though is you can see that the dogs recruiting team have been absolutely razor sharp in recent years. Their decision to leapfrog us with Bontempelli, their decisive calls on Stringer and Macrae, they also nabbed Dalhaus at some ridulously late pick meaning no other recruiting team was across him that year. They seem very good at what they do. That to me would suggest they were sniffing out this late bloomer around the same time as us. The pies seemed very very certain of the selection and the fact that the cameras were ready to roll at the family home makes it look like we had already calculated he was our best available at 32. That makes me feel pretty content with the pick. I also love the Phillips selection. Other two look less convincing at this stage but that's going by the 3 minute highlight reel, so best of luck to all of them.
