I've been distracted for a few weeks and not seen any games since early July. Anyone really catch your eye?
Wants:
Mobile Ruck - Brock McGregor, Peter Ladhams, Lloyd Meek, Tim English
Mobile Forward - Jack Henry
Into50 deliverer - Tim Taranto
Mobile Ruck - Any reason for having this twice? :p
Thoughts?
Ben Ronke is a mid/fwd that has caught my eye. He is quick, seriously quick and tackles well.

I wonder who Dals yearly who pick will be, I admit when I see that they have no picture to show on draft night that I get a little worried..

Hahaha :p

Just keep an eye out for the players that I favor a lot then, McLean and Fiorini look like 2 hits in two years.

My favorites per round probably look like this:

1st round - Timothy Taranto
2nd round - Zac Fisher (gun)
3rd round - Taylin Duman (could go higher)
Late & rookie - Sam Fowler/Benjamin Ronke

I haven't followed U18's at all this year. Caught Ronke's game a couple weeks ago, I thought he would be talked up of at least going 2nd round. Was pretty surprised to see you had him as a late/rookie pick.

Going 40+ I'd say. Some ??? on his disposal at times. And he is overage 19yo (born Dec 97)

So Maibaum a better player but McLarty more value? If our last pick was pick 30 by some magic chance, which would you take there (if any)?
Maibaum is a lot like our other tall defenders. Larkey and McLarty have a point of difference in they can play both ends.

Probably wait until the rookie draft. Talls aren't really too special this year. Not many I like in the top 30. Especially defenders.

Lachie Murphy would be a bloody good pickup for us if we could snag him in the rookie draft. He's the type of player I wouldn't mind we stretch for; worth a fourth rounder. Had a few fans earlier on in the season, would've thought we'd be all over him given the finish to the season he's had. Elite kicking, accumulation, defensive pressure, and could slot nicely into our back six in a few years time.

Definitely one on my list. Lipinski will go earlier but is also worth a look from the Knights (I reckon he could go as high as second round) as is Signorello if he can get a bit more consistency would be like having another Libba well worth a late pick or rookie selection.

Wiz have you seen anything of Cedric Cox?
Quick, agile and great skills. Would be one worth considering in the second round. Think he still has to find a bit more footy though.

Reckon we will like him, Patrick Lipinski (athletic tall goalkicking midfielder) and maybe a player like Zac Fisher if he drops through and we have offloaded some of our smaller players, the kid is another Daniel...

If we had some extra 2nd rounders that would be great.

If you get the time I'd love to see a Bulldogs-specific wishlist, maybe a top 25? I asked you similar last year and a couple others did them too. I've got my own but it's solely informed by stuff I've read online and a couple highlight reels / streamed matches.

I know you didn't ask me
I can do 5 players I'd like to see be a Dog and try to talk about players that haven't been talked about as much as maybe others & no not Shai Bolton :D
