God I'm bullish on Dolan. If he was our first pick last draft, I'd be satisfied with what he's shown.

 

[X_box_X]

Gees the kid can play

 

[mambavino]

That’s a beautiful kick from Dolan.

 

[BulldogMuscle]

Love me some Dolan

Get him some bulk and he will be right

 

[Chicago1]

Dolan has a nice kick for goal. Very smooth.

Dolan reminds me so much of Gryan Miers

2023 and 2024 draft classes looking like very strong recruitment

Imagine what Dolan can be when he finishes puberty

crying into his Box Hill Jumper I can hear the disappointment

 

[Mofra]

Stringer when he had a work rate early on is what Hynes reminds me of

I'm not sure Hynes is quite as explosive, but he does have a bit better lateral movement.
He was basically paired as a forward/mid with Harvey Langford last year who was my favourite kid in the draft last year.

I'd say he's going to be a bit more Cam Raynor than Jake Smith. Might be a slow burn and won't be the type that gets 35+ touches but will be an impact player. Pretty happy with his first year.

 

[iambrilliant]

This Footscray team would beat west coast comfortably

 

[mambavino]

We have started this quarter “Outstanderly” haven’t we Chris.

 

[Marsy]

It makes a difference when Smith is in the ruck

 

[Mofra]

Dolan reminds me so much of Gryan Miers

Always making the right decisions

Maybe it's the blond hair, but I get a bit of Kai Lohman about how he plays. He's certainly not lost in that dead-zone at HF either.

’s meltdown in the commentary box in that final against Essendon down in Tassie when weightman got all those free kicks. The most bias unprofessional commentary I’ve ever heard.

Pretty sure he’s son was on the dons list at that point which is why he was so bias.

 

[Struggle]

The commentary has been pathetic Box Hill this Box Hill that

Someone let him know it's Hynes not Haynes.

 

[mattwa]

A lot of talent coming through. Still lacking an elite young gun mid but we can solve that

 

[DognBones]

I can see why several clubs are chasing Cam Mackenzie. He'd walk into their midfields.

 

[VitalDread]

Fingers crossed Lewis and Croft get picked up by a club
Both have had a rippa season

 

[Clay]

5 touches between Jones and Croft?

 

[Mofra]

I can see why several clubs are chasing Cam Mackenzie. He'd walk into their midfields.

Had real forward sense early in his career too. Just too good for VFL football

 

[Testekill]

5 touches between Jones and Croft?

Artie went off in the first quarter after an eye poke from Treloar.

 

[MaxiBont]

Maybe it's the blond hair, but I get a bit of Kai Lohman about how he plays. He's certainly not lost in that dead-zone at HF either.

Definitely see that.

I think Dolan has a bit more potential as a linking forward who racks up possessions. Lohmann seems to better as a small/medium forward.

I’m confident that Dolan’s delivery I50 will end up being an elite trait.
