Pick 57- Tory Dickson

Re: Pick 57- Tory Dickson

I reckon he will definitely play v Geelong next Friday. With the VFL playing on the Saturday - they may think the best move for him is to have a freshen up this week and start to prepare for next Friday night.

Re: Pick 57- Tory Dickson

Even though only two members of that 2014 VFL premiership team played in the 2016 premiership, that event really turned the whole club around. Though the arrival of Bevo was obviously huge, something else changed that day that carried over into the next two years.

Yeah, something fundamental altered in the fabric of our club that day and or whole mentality changed. It's like we learned what sacrifices have to be made in order to be successful and immediately began sacrificing everyone unwilling or incapable of making them. The captain, the coach, the CEO the 'star' players.

I read it somewhere. I would have thought there would be more than that.

When you think about it, a fair chunk of that team left the club that year.

Ayce Cordy, Christian Howard, Sam Darley, Tom Young, Liam Jones, Jarrad Grant and Jason Tutt were all gone by September, Alex Greenwood and Mark Austin were dropped from the Rookie list and Daniel Pearce was delisted and rookied.

Of the rest, Brett Goodes and Tahleeya was gone a year later, Redpath was injured come Grand Final time, Jong lost his spot, Campbell missed out and Honeychurch was nowhere near it.

Of the 18 Bulldogs-listed players in that team, 12 are no longer senior players.

Yeah seems like we are trying to bring in a few fresh players in after the dreaded return from playing from Perth. I reckon Wallis will be a big chance also.
