Draft Profile Dean Galea

[Testekill]

To be fair though, he played on James Mulligan who might be amongst the most incompetent players to pull on the Bulldogs jumper. Still, Port exploited that for all it was worth and Galea was a match winner for them.

^^ Correct, his opponent is more likely to be playing suburban reserves grade next year than VFL, athlete who has no idea about football at all, Galea doesn't have enough tricks at his size for AFL

He's 25 so he'd come in at what would be at his physical prime.

Watching him , he is a shorter less talented version of Pods. Can hold a mark and can make a side hurt , perhaps doesn't have the vertical of Pods , perhaps not as athletic but does know how to get into position and can read the play.

Put him in the system , let him get AFL fit , play him in the right side and he could be better than some would think.Just like Pods , I bet there are guys in the system that have a lot less forward nous than him

Totally agree TC.

 

[burglerbaron]

would be a list clogger at AFL. no disrespect meant either. a bit too old for a long-term outlook, so an interested club is probably one with a shot at things now, but he doesn't quite look AFL ready. He isn't Pods.

Stuart Crameri mk 2 !?!?

 

[Danog]

Surely he'd be worth a rookie spot

 

[blueroy]

I'd tend to agree, worth a stab somewhere

Is the Geelong player he is playing on a listed player? Galea is giving him a lesson.

He played on Bathie in the GF and he is an ex basketballer. Rookie listed. Still say he would be worth a shot at somewhere like the Dogs. One would think they have little to lose an should have learned from the Pods situation
