Re: Welcome to the WBFC - Bailey Dale
Very impressed with what was shown on the highlights video. A really good pick up.

Welcome to the Doggie's Bailey.
Looks impressive in the highlight package, is it just me or do I see a bit of Judas in his style of play ?

Re: Welcome to the WBFC - Bailey Dale
His name is seriously going to confuse people, but that aside, he looks taller/plays taller than 182cms. Apparently he has size 13 feet? It would suggest he could yet have some growing to do, which would begin to turn him into a bigger mid.

Yeah watching the highlights I assumed he was around about 186, seems pretty good in the air. And yeah size 13 feet, googled it before and read that most people with size 13-15 feet are over 6'4!! Theres also a quote from one of his coaches saying "he barely has a hair on his body" and he just looks very very young in the face, so wouldn't be surprised if he had quite a bit of growth in him, seems to only be coming good late too so hopefully his improvement trend continues.

Re: Welcome to the WBFC - Bailey Dale
His highlights package is quite exciting, had only seen bits of Webb and Daniel in the U/18's who I'm quite chuffed about but Dale's highlights reel is something to get excited about with his skill and movements, reading the play etc, looks a damn smart footballer.

Re: Welcome to the WBFC - Bailey Dale
I thought his highlights package was the most exciting apart from perhaps McLean's screamers. Seems to glide over the grass, a bit like Bonti. Also reminded me of Murphy a little, perhaps enhanced by fact there is not much of him.

Re: Welcome to the WBFC - Bailey Dale
Looks a really nice player. I can see him being a very good rebounding defender also. He looks taller than he tested at the combine.

Id also been thinking that might try him back in the VFL also to see how he goes
He's bigger than Hamilton in the frame and looks like he'll end up being a powerful type

Re: Welcome to the WBFC - Bailey Dale
Welcome Bailey, enjoyed watching your highlights reel and look forward to seeing more of the same at Whitten Oval
Anyone can support a team that is winning, it takes no courage. But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you, that takes a lot of courage, so lets always be behind our boys and girls in red, white and blue.

Re: Welcome to the WBFC - Bailey Dale
He really is quite raw and would be seen as a project player if he hadn't already shown what he has. Could be a big improver in a full time AFL program
If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.
