A second Ed Richards?
Although a HB at the champs he played elsewhere at lower levels. Pace + kicking skills, he's definitely in the frame.Western Bulldogs: 2016 PremiersComment

Re: 2018 Draft Watch
it's probably a good thing that most of our blokes who seemed to really enjoy a beer have gone. Interesting that Smith has come out with such a strong stance. I like it and congratulate him for it, but it may polarise some potential team mates.Have you heard Butters wants to come to the Dogs?Comment

Re: 2018 Draft Watch
Irrespective of which club he plays for, he's clearly talking about alcohol in the context of himself and not generally of alcohol on others. I'm not sure why it would polarise anyone. No more if he chooses not to take drugs, or have tattoos, or bad hair cuts, or be/not be monogamous, or eat or not eat carbs. If we are trying to re-set standards, on the track, on the field and off the field. It sounds like he's got the capability to be an example in all areas in addition to being a good footballer. If we get him and any other player has an issue with his personal life choices and doesn't give him a shot, they can get another club. Personally, I think it won't mean a thing to the club and its players that draft him.Rocket Science: the epitaph for the Beveridge era - whenever it ends - reading 'Here lies a team that could beat anyone on its day, but seldom did when it mattered most'. 15/7/2023Comment

Re: 2018 Draft Watch
I got a little confused watching it as he must have gone from #4 to #3 for a game and in the next clip, there's another #3 that looks very similar.
Obviously they're highlights so they're designed to look good but they certainly do look good. Good movement in traffic, nice kick on both sides, also handballs easily on both sides. Very impressive set of highlights given how little he played this year.Comment
