    Re: Preseason Training 2021

    Liberatore has continued off from 2020. Should be no surprise he is still in ripping condition.

    Family life appears to be agreeing with him.
    More of an In Bruges guy?

    Was chatting before, my mum got Libba snr to write me a little letter when he was in hospital when Tom was born.

    Always been a family favourite, looks sensational.

    It's amazing what waking up at 6am versus getting home at 6am does to folks.
    Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

    Generally speaking, the players will be allocated the roles that they deserve through their efforts on the track/performance in trials.

    He's right to be highly motivated.

    I hope we don’t stuff Libba around to appease Dunkley. If Libba is in ripping form he can be our no 1 mid. Dunkley can play 2s if he isn’t good enough.

    Hope his knees are strong. He will surely be the first third gen player we have seen.

    Height, age and preferred position BAD if you wouldn't mind. Cheers.
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

    with the way the games going, your not half wrong.

    I suspect he'll grow an extra few CM's over the next year or two, hopefully fills out and can fill that lockdown defender role we need down back, as well as back up ruck

    Only genetically. His dad's knees shortened his career.

    Bont’s Blues take match-sim honours

    Two goals from skipper Marcus Bontempelli helped the Blues claim the chocolates in the Western Bulldogs’ first extended scratch match hit-out for 2021.


    With a healthy list to work with and a number of players vying for a spot on the Bulldogs’ list in 2021, there were nearly 40 players involved in the session.


    Bontempelli split the big sticks twice from a distance in the eight goal to five game.


    Off-season recruit Adam Treloar also featured for the Blues and kicked a goal, with spearhead Aaron Naughton and speedster Laitham Vandermeer chiming in with one apiece.


    Emerging defender Buku Khamis produced one of the day’s highlights, with a goal on the run from outside-50.


    Treloar played in a Blue midfield alongside the likes of Tom Liberatore, who impressed again, plus young guns Pat Lipinski and Rhylee West.


    Number one draft pick Jamarra Ugle-Hagan also ran out for the Blue team, with ruckmen Stefan Martin and Tim English spending time on the same team and playing against each other.


    For the team in Yellow, AFL hopeful Corey Preston impressed with a pair of majors.


    The 18-year-old small forward is one of four players training with the Bulldogs in the hope of earning a spot on the AFL list.


    Bailey Smith, Jack Macrae and Josh Dunkley spent time in the Yellow midfield, with English and yet-to-debut big man Jordon Sweet.


    Father-son prospect Sam Darcy also featured in the same role as his father, Luke, spending time forward and in the ruck.


    Key forward Josh Schache was one of three individual goal-kickers for team Yellow, alongside Ben Cavarra and Lin Jong, who each displayed good signs spending time on the ball and up forward
