    Re: Welcome To The Western Bulldogs Bailey Williams

    Good luck Bailey!

    Surprised by his selection but I'm not surprised! (does that make sense, probably not). He has looked like a player from day dot. He looked raw but he has definitely something. Hopefully on Sunday he has a good game.

      Not exactly a star studded selection to pick from!
      Gordon Casey was a big Vee rep and spent a lifetime in coaching. He wore 34.


      Or Tery Wheelers brothe who was tragically killed in an accident years ago wore 34. It'd be a great excuse to get wheels back. He could talk about what having the locker next to his brother was like.
      They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

        Re: Welcome To The Western Bulldogs Bailey Williams

        Having seen him a few times over pre-season and the VFL, I'm not surprised he's in.

        He has a lot of work to do before he'll become a consistent AFL player, however he's shown he's capable at reading the ball in flight and impacting an aerial contest (important this week), whilst not super quick he has wheels and can use them (important at the G) and he adds some surety to our ball use out of the back half (big ask for a kid in his first game, but he's been solid from what I've seen).

        His inclusion will allow Hunter to player further up the field (better for him, and his confidence).

        The only downside is it's going to get confusing with Williams and Dale in the team.
        Have you heard Butters wants to come to the Dogs?

          Dale Morris, Bailey Dale, Bailey Williams. There's a pattern emerging. Expecting us to draft someone with the first name William.
          I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

            Has looked very promising in the VFL and I feel pretty confident he will make a good fist of it

              I guess Wayde Skipper was unavailable... Big Bazza presents Williams' jumper...

                  Good luck Bailey Williams. I hope he has very good debut game.

                    Great video. Bob, Bazza spoke very well. Bailey said a few brief words.

                      That is the thing with Bazza. Only played a couple of (eventful) seasons with us at the end of his career but...lifelong Bulldogs supporter

                        Yes I really enjoyed watching him in those years with us.

                          He had a very good time with us. Wish we got him a bit earlier but it's now history. Great that Bazza is a Dogs fan.

                            Nice touch from Barry . He didn't spend long in the Colours, but made quite an impact

                              One of my favourite days at the footy was that NAB cup win where he kicked, was it seven? The chorus of the crowd in the last quarter - "BAAAAAAAARRRRRRYYYYYY, BAAAAAAAAARRRRRRYYYY!"
                              Wake me up when we get to heaven, let me sleep if we're going to hell

                              Good luck, for your sake I hope heaven and hell are really there, but I wouldn't hold my breath

                              And we all found heaven - 2016 Premiers!
