    Closest to the pin: How many times will his father, David Hayes, get mentioned today?

    I say 18.

    Another player that handballs more than he kicks it, how many vanilla players do we have on our list? Hayes may well be AFL standard but should not be on our list. Harsh but true.

    I’m not a fan but he wasn’t the worst.

    Still don’t see why he’s in the side - a player with great limitations by foot, one paced and slight. Not exactly a type we’re crying out for

    Did some ok things, but butchered the ball a few times and that handball back into traffic in defensive 50....yikes.

    Just another battler in a team full of them.
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

    Sure he made a few errors, but for a first gamer he provided a lot more two-way gut-running than some of our other outside mids did, in particular our reigning B&F who phoned it in because he actually had run-with opponents for the first time ever.

    The handball error in D50 was a shocker but at least he was down back helping his defenders, which is more than can be said for most of our mids on the day.

    Definitely not the worse by any stretch. Could even be squeezed into our best 6 on the day. A hard day for him when the rest of the mids are not up to it.

    In a game where we only scored six goals we gifted the opposition at least three goals from terrible school boy errors. Two of these were from first gamer in Hayes and Young.

    Hayes wasn't our worst. But I have no idea how he is selected ahead of the likes of Lipinksi.

    Re: Welcome to the Senior Bulldogs - Will Hayes

    What's happened to Will Hayes this year? I was told he came back from the break after round 1 in top condition but I don't even think he has had a chance to sit alongside of Jordan Sweet on the emergency list so far this year
    A spot hasn't even opened up with Hunter missing a large chunk of the season.

    We put 9 games of development into him last year and nothing so far this year

    I can't figure out why he doesn't appear to be in the mix
