This kid is a jet. I have never seen a cooler first year bigger player. Very composed and already looks to be a lock for round 1 this year.
Excellent draft choice and a bloke that appears that the defence can be built around him. I hope Sam Power extends his contract immediately. It seems to be a trend LDU and Rayner already extended contracts at Brisbane and the cess pit.
I’m extremely excited about this kid.
 
I'll admit I wasn't so sure Naughton would have an instant impact. After the first two games I was impressed but still thought he wasn't there yet. However, what a great game he played in round 3. Going to be a tough one this week but I really love this kid. Great set of hands, confidence and decision making. A lot to like. He has really eased the loss of Morris and Adams in the back line which is very impressive for such a young player. A great selection.

Naughton reminds me of sid, he can read the ball so well he moves into the right positions two kicks before it gets there which forces other defenders to fill the gaps and get into good spots
 
Naughton, Young and Cordy all have the skills to be good players and form the tall foundation
of our defence for years to come. They all need to keep working on their disposal, but even
the highly rated Daniel Talia is an appalling kick. If you throw Adams into the mix it is very
clear that one of them has to go forward probably Young.

Naughton was very good for Peel Thunder in the WAFL so it is no surprise he looks at home
at the senior level.

Outstanding first year. Can anyone think who was the last first year player to finish 4th or better in our B&F? Chris Grant?

Seems like he has a great footy ethic as well. Already signed up until 2020 by which time he'll be a genuine star of the comp. Hope we can extend him again toward the end of next year and lock him up for the long term. He'll command a decent sort of salary.

Did he finish 4th? Didnt think he would be that high, especially considering he missed a few games but his year was definitely underrated. Hes unreal though. One of the best first year key defenders I can ever remember watching, ever.

He's a defender, and not a half back flanker/running defender. Any rankings have them lower than their actual worth.

Sourced directly from the Western Bulldogs website so in essence they are our rankings, now anyone will know that match day
rankings reflect poorly at times on KPD's and don't paint a picture of their overall impact on games.

Lets have a look at our other draftee Ed Richards and his year.
Round 2- Ranking 18th
Round 3- Ranking 12th
Round 4- Ranking 20th
Round 5- Ranking 13th
Round 6- Ranking 11th
Round 7- Ranking 16th
Round 8- Ranking 14th
Round 9- Ranking 18th
Round 10- Ranking 5th
Round 11- Ranking 14th
Round 13- Ranking 14th
Round 14- Ranking 18th
Round 15- Ranking 19th
Round 16- Ranking 14th
Round 17- Ranking 15th
Round 18- Ranking 20th
Round 19- Ranking 21st
Round 20- Ranking 21st
Round 21- Ranking 12th
Round 22- Ranking 12th
Round 23- Ranking 19th

Yet another outstanding first year performance from a player, the discrepancy in their B&F finish could be as
simple as the perceived positional impact they had as observed by the coaching group. I would hazard a
guess that the two games Richards kicked three goals in as a forward were ranked fairly highly.

Go to afl.com click on the Bulldogs icon (top right of page) once on the Bulldogs site select the Team drop down box
and highlight statistics, 2018 totals are available as well as all individual rounds and even previous seasons.

The same thing can be done for all teams or Jaidyn Stephenson if you get my drift.
