Brander for me

Coffield for me. Just ahead of Naughton.

Stealing from ESPN, the reason:

9. Western Bulldogs - Nick Coffield
Height, Weight: 191cm, 83kg
Summary Profile: Evasive, classy and composed defender. Has the scope to develop into a midfielder over time.

Flip a coin, Bonar or Coffield.

Coffield seems the safe pick- a likely 200 gamer and ticks the pace and good kicking box (as well as other things like leadership). Bonar seems the Jake Stringer style pick- injury question marks that probably have him slipping a lot lower than he would otherwise be, but a potential x-factor, game breaking talent with power and speed.

I say roll the dice. Bonar.

A few too many question marks on Bonar, but if we were to actually take him, I'd back us in.

For the purposes of this thread - Coffield.

Re: WDRT - Pick 9 - AFL DRAFT

Coffield for me too. We need stability, quality and leadership with young players coming in and settle for the next decade. (Don't want any Stringer-like issue any more )

- Excellent during junior time:

HS: Coffield has made a terrific start to the year, averaging more than 20 possessions and five marks a game while booting nine goals.

He has carried on his form from last year, when he won the Michael Mascoulis rising star award, playing every match and named in the best eight times as a bottom-ager.

- Versatility:

HS: The captain prefers the halfback flank but has already been thrown forward, kicking a matchwinning four goals in Round 1, and has spent time in the midfield.

- Quality in leadership: Northern Knights captain (fit right in to our no-dickheads policy)

- Easily to adjust to AFL at our club because he's a good mate with Pat Lipinski

I'm calling it. The WOOF Draft Recruiting Team select Nick Coffied as the 9th best player in the draft.
