Just saw this on SEN as Bulldogs wishlist. Do you have any others?
Jamarra to step up and partner the 'Astronaught'
Despite the Dogs’ explosive scoring last season, each press conference at Whitten Oval usually led with a question about first-year forward Jamarra Ugle-Hagan
A tetchy but not unamused Luke Beveridge persistently cited the 19-year-old’s lack of match preparation, his entire U18 season having been wiped out by the coronavirus pandemic.
Ugle-Hagan debuted late in the season, booted seven goals in five appearances, and impressed with his leading patterns, set shot conversion and willingness to defend.
He spent the summer travelling and training with skipper Marcus Bontempelli, spoke candidly of his discontent with his first season, and has swapped his No.22 jumper for No.2 in pursuit of a “reset”.
With Josh Bruce to miss most of the next season rehabilitating a knee injury, Ugle-Hagan’s capacity to find pockets of space and score is the perfect foil for Aaron Naughton’s leap and link-up play.
