Re: WOOF welcomes Caleb Poulter to the Kennel
Anthony scott and Gardner are looking the best picks out of all them !
Scott looks like he could play the most games , as he has versatility and is reasonable clean with disposal.

Four months ago we passed on him. Now after a handful of VFL Games he’s a decade long player.
Yep.

Footscray is a team that is part of the club, right?

Yep.
He made a mistake to put a time frame on it. "We see him as a long term prospect given his age and the way he has applied himself at Footscray" might have been a better response.
Poulters comments that he played a stinker for Footscray up at Darwin and how he thought that might not have helped him shows that we take a wide view with our selection process.

Re: WOOF welcomes Caleb Poulter to the Kennel
Ex-Pie to make Bulldogs debut against Dockers
A MONTH after earning an AFL lifeline via the Mid-Season Rookie Draft, Caleb Poulter will play his first game for the Western Bulldogs on Saturday.
The 20-year-old played 11 games for Collingwood in 2021 but only managed one more appearance last year before being delisted in October after just two years at the AIA Centre.
But after being one of only two recycled players ? Quinton Narkle was the other ? to secure a second chance last month, Poulter will launch the second chapter of his AFL career against Fremantle at Marvel Stadium.
Rather than returning to South Australia, the Woodville-West Torrens product joined Footscray at the end of last year and has played 11 games in the VFL season.
After naming him in the 26-man squad in round 13, Western Bulldogs coach Luke Beveridge has now opted to pick Poulter following a spate of injuries down back in recent months.
With Ed Richards and Jason Johannisen missing due to hamstring strains, the former Collingwood wingman is set to play at half-back and in his usual position against Fremantle.

Hopeful that Caleb can justify his selection.
