You have to scroll to the bottom for the Dogs content. Good to see Chris Maple and the team get some recognition here. Clearly getting some very good results. Helps getting quality recruits to work with, but we have seen other clubs get highly rated recruits year after year (eg Melbourne) not develop into good AFL players.

The development team are an important but under recognised part of a football department, so yay for Chris and the team.

Little mention to Ryan Davidson who always seems to get the Dogs in these AFL pieces. Recently nailed a list evaluation on us around draft time (way better than most 'senior' journos would've). Got good Dogs knowledge, hopefully gets more detailed pieces given more prominence.
