Welcome to the Bulldogs Louis Emmett (pick 27)

[doggiesin08]

Walker was pretty capable up forward when played there.

None of his goals were really KPF goals, more being in the right place at the right time at ground level, but better than Buku on his own. I guess Will Lewis is there too, but still a question of whether you can play all of the other in the backline.

Per his post draft video Regan says the club views him as a back.

Had an injury interrupted season this year but his 2024 vision and stats are ridiculous. Had a number of 20+ disposal, multiple goal games as an underager.

Will be an absolute steal. Delighted to hear we’re starting him down back.

 

[Fellaheen]

Oh cheers thanks for clearing that up.

So should be NRL (National Rowing League)

Emmett and Darcy (w) can develop in the VFL backline together as best mates

 

[Bald Headed Flog]

Can’t remember the last time we spent a second rounder on a tall at the draft. Feels like we only ever spend our earliest picks in the 1st, take them late/rookie, or trade in.

Was Collins in 2015 the last one?

What’s Emmitt’s marking like? Wouldn’t mind seeing him developed as a key back.

I should’ve spent some time reading this thread .

Happy to hear that. Looks like he has attributes to make it back there.

Very solid.

This guy gives me Polly Farmer vibes.

Don’t forget Sellwood

Please don’t use the C word, hopefully she’s a bit better

Yeah at the start of the season he was considered one of the top prospects. Was even in pick 1 discussions. His injuries have gotten us a steal.

 

[W W Biscuit]

Watching his interview, I think he'll quickly become a personal fave. Nickname 'Dunny'?

Marking is one of his standout attributes. Hope the club does develop him as a Key Back

Don’t forget Sellwood

Sellwood played as a forward? I didn't see it.

 

[Mojorisin]

Sellwood played as a forward? I didn't see it.

He could play literally anywhere and still be best on ground. He won a few best on ground for the Western Bulldogs playing for Footscray.

What was Emmett’s other combine testing like, apart from blitzing the 2km trial

He wasn't in any of the other published top 10s. Rookieme has his speed and agility as average, aerial and strength as above average.

Hopefully Sellwood can surprise. I don’t see an AFL talent with him but we definitely need a player like that.

How dare you bash our future captain

If this years draft is weak compared to the 2024 - how could Emmett have starred as an underager in 2024 against what we are told was a superior crop?
