Strong Bulldogs team, wonder if Polson might get Caleb Daniel this week...be someone more his own size at least.

That could be a good match because Polson has the pace and the willingness to tackle.

We should see what Lin Jong is doing next year, he's a tidy footballer and wouldn't carry a huge price tag, he'd be a definite upgrade on a few of our marginals like Lamb, Kerridge and Graham.

Making Polson chase/tag Daniel all day is not a silly idea. Daniel is a very damaging player whereas Polson's forward impact has been minor. I don't see a match up for Polson if he plays forward.

Id pay money to see Charlie stand on Morris' head, he's been a mighty warrior for that club but it's our turn.

Umps need to be onto tunnelling this week.

Graham and Kerridge can both play in the midfield, not very well admittedly, and Pickett struggles to get a kick but is quick.
So with those three out we pick Mullett, Weitering and an up and coming ruckman in his first game.
It's a very slow side.

Mullet..... Gees we must hoping for a game with a combined tackle count between the two sides of about forty.

3 smalls out for two talls and a mullet.

SOS is making sure we lose this one to lock away the 1st pick.

That number 1 pick was a lock a long time ago. That said, looking forward to seeing TDK have a run around....I'm guessing still pretty raw but worth a punt and let Harry McKay play as a permanent forward? Polsen has done an amazing job at holding his spot in the team given he's done SFA for most games.

Worth having a look on the website to the video where Bolts announces Tom’s inclusion and what he says after that re the youth.

Maybe Polson is following coaching instructions to the letter? "Look son, I want you to go out there and do SFA!"

He kicked an amazingly flukey goal against Hawthorn and in the same game chipped a nice pass to Harry McKay, so far that's all she wrote.
