    Re: Zaine Cordy - Welcome to the Bulldogs

    For the record, Zaine becomes senior Bulldog #990.

    He is the 5th Cordy of the last 2 generations to play seniors for Dogs; after brother Ayce (#956, 27 games to date), father Brian (#708, 124 games) and uncles Neil (#680, 139 games) and Graeme (#757, 6 games). A further uncle, Roger, also played for Footscray but never scored a senior game.

    Amazing family history.

    In 20 or 30 years time I look forward to Ayce's son Jordy and Zaine's son Gordy running around for the Bulldogs.

    Ayce and Zaine both playing in the same season means we have now unveiled the full spectrum: the A-Z of Cordys.

    " He didn't kick a goal with his first kick in footy, but that defensive action when he laid that tackle in our forward 50 and we got a goal from it, that's as crucial a touch as any first gamer's ever had."

    Absolutely crunched Higgins. Loved it.

    All the boys got around him afterwards.

    Should've been paid holding the ball and had a first kick, first goal option. His tackling was one of the standout things I loved about his junior footy, he just crunches blokes and makes every tackle count.

    I love players who tackle like they enjoy it and want their opponent to feel it.

    He also nullified a few contests and was clean with ball in hand for his first possession. Pretty nice start, IMO.

    Will he play a full game next week?
