If I see a best 22 side without this guy in there, consider yourself blocked.
I believe.
I believe too but it's not unthinkable he starts in the VFL. If our starting back 6 consists of Ziebell, McKay, Corr, Hall, Walker and McDonald, and there isn't room for him on the bench (likely to be a very crowded midfield), there's no problem with starting him in the VFL then elevating him based on performance. He hasn't played a senior game at any level since 2020, plonking him straight into top level footy might not be the best thing for his development. Besides, just giving guys games without making them earn it is how you get stagnant footballers like Shaun Atley.

Yeah all fair points, but personally I'm optimistic his form will warrant selection.
Also think it's important to our list balance that we start transitioning some younger defenders through there in 2022 (if they warrant selection). No point having a firing midfield in a few years if all our starting defenders are retiring.
Can play
A defensively more adept and younger Docherty?Anyone got a good player comparison for Perez?

Tom DoedeeAnyone got a good player comparison for Perez?
Not a bad comparison. Not sure if Flynn has a bit more rebound to him, but Brad was a phenomenal player. (Flynn) Definitely has got more versatility to play anyway on the outside or on the hb line.Brad Sheppard is the other, the bloke from west coke.
Corey EnrightAnyone got a good player comparison for Perez?
Craig Sholl. IMOAnyone got a good player comparison for Perez?
I hope Bergman is our Corey Enright ...Corey Enright

I can see him becoming a proper intercepting and rebounding medium defender. He's got good hands, a good leap, reads the game well and a bag full of courage. Add that to his pace and excellent ball use and he has the tools needed for that role. That's why I likened him to Tom Doedee previously who is of a similar size and an excellent interceptor.From what I’ve seen at training, Michael Hibberd.
He’s probably a bit quicker though, he’s a solid unit and stopped a lot of players in their tracks that tried to walk through him in match sim.
I don’t really see the Docherty/Scholl comparisons tbh.
Bonars would be lucky to intercept a soft serve at Sizzlers. Stop, sure. He can stop when the worlds align (ie prior to injury)I see him as more a rebounder and playmaker like Jake Lloyd as opposed to an interceptor
In terms of interceptors I think that will be more Bonar in the future
