    He's been a very good spare parts addition to the team. The recruiting team and development coaches should be thanked for getting him to this point. He's earned his spot.

    Yeah every team needs foot soldiers that get out there and get the job done.

    Right now it appears that he's not going to be a 25 possession type player but he can fill a few spots and can kick a goal. He's a very good option for us.

    Is he our new Liam Picken?

    That kick to Marra late in the game was a thing of beauty
    If he becomes a 15 disposal wingman who manages an assist like that per game, he'll be handy.

    Re: Welcome to the Western Bulldogs Anthony Scott

    I’ve been a fan of his since he arrived at the club.

    Definitely our Mr.Fix it.

    With Baker taking his wing role he’s slotted into our F50 very nicely.

    Hard not to be impressed with him.
    More of an In Bruges guy?

    A handy player to round out the 22. Taking his opportunity where others haven’t in this role. If he keeps up contributing, out of contract guys like Hannan & McLean will becoming a little nervous without contracts for next year.

    That's exactly it. He's not the first picked but if he's forced out of the team there's a decent chance we're flying.

    Scott's well in front of both right now.
    Can take wing rotations but has just been taking his chances in front of goal, many couldn't today,

    Scott is in that 18-25 range, doing his job and hitting the scoreboard which is all that you really want out of a player in that position on the list. We can play him in multiple roles as well and Bevo loves flexibility in players.

    I reckon players are reading WOOF mid-game. This week Libba stopped doing silly things at half time because I was upset with him, last week Scotty must have read a poster calling him out as horrible in the first quarter or so, because he's kicked five goals since and been really solid.

    He's such a neat footballer who is starting to finish consistently and hold his tackles.

    How good was that crumbing goal by Scott? He doesn't get a lot of the ball but he's been very effective.

    The whole list needs to play better.

    Kick better.

    Make better decisions.

    Kick more goals.

    Or do I have to say this mid game?

    I just want to say thank you for whoever is passing on the coaching tips to the team mid-game

    Bevo or the players must be listening.

    Of course we are keyboard warriors know what we are doing and its sOOOO easy from the comfort of our lounge chairs as we type away.

    AFL is a high pressure game, its fast , requires real skill and clean possession. They have to pickup ball cleanly at the right moment and be able to kick and mark with timed perfection. Some players never seem to be able to seize that moment.

    Even when we grind a win with an imperfect game, I do appreciate the whole team in trying their guts out.
