Won Perth's leading goal kicker. Yeah, it was the bottom side, but he's 18 years old, so that's a fair effort.

Huh??
Where'd this come from?
I think the "shallow draft" is inaccurate. We picked up rookies who are going to have substantial AFL careers, and they are the very last players picked, and that indicates that the draft is deep. Yes the rookies included mature players, but that is simply the nature of how the draft works these days.
Mainly from the obsessive amounts of reading I do about anything Freo.
At the time of the draft there were people on the D&T board who claimed to have played with or knew him who said he's a bit of an arrogant type.
I read the WAFL reports religiously and I've notice Lloyd seems to do a bit of gentle prodding of players in terms of what they are hoping to see in terms of players improving. Fair bit of what he said about Bolly was along the lines of Justing tends to drop his head if he can't get hold of the ball. We are trying to teach him ways to get himself involved if it's not bouncing his way. That sort of thing.
I could be interpreting it all wrong and it's just my opinion gleaned from reading as I said. Figure there must be something not quite right with him if he dropped so far in a shallow draft.
Having said all that I watched a fair bit of him at Perth this year and he's dynamite with the ball (as he showed at AFL level too). Just doesn't get it enough. But he's young and certainly has the talent to be a topline player.
Further updates,Interesting JADED, Cheers for the update.
