    Never doubted him. He's certain to become a champion.

    Welcome to The Bont!! Let's hope he gets the Bont as a nickname and not Pelican. Too many negative associations.

    Happy with this pick.

    Good luck to the Bont. Happy with the selection based on what I've read and the snippets that I have seen.

    Did I hear right that he had 50 possessions and kicked 10 goals in a game?

    Yep, school game.

    Welcome Bonts.

    I was a little nervous, but if we believe we can develop him to his potential, this could be a huge pick.

    Not overly joyed but what do I know. The best three were gone and it was a raffle.
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

    Probably would have been more concerned 12 months ago, but with our own side I'm more confident.

    Watch the highlights on the bulldogs page of Bonts much more extensive very impressive too.

    Aside from his clean hands, he seems to really kick well to a lead.
    Makes the forwards look good.

    Re: Marcus Bontempelli

    A highlights package will always impress but he certainly looks to have some good moves, good hands, good vision and being a left footer is able to find some time that helps offset any lack of pace. I'm happy.

    Based on photo of top 10, if Boyd is 199cm then Bontempelli looks closer to 194cm and having just turned 18 might grow a bit more. Just hope he does not loose speed once he puts on some bulk.

    Our day will come
    And we'll have everything.
    We'll share the joy
    Just like '54 again.

    Can't lose what he doesn't have.
