Had a thought about picking this guy up with a late pick or PSD. What do people think of him and where has he been most of the year for the bulldogs. i liked what i saw of him when ive seen him play, especially when he killed us this year.

Age: 23yr 10mth Games: 59 Born: October 7, 1987
Height: 186cm Weight: 84kg Position: Midfield/Half Back

Is a solid contributor that should be coming to his peak. Shouldnt command a huge price and would add to our midfield depth

Thoughts????
 
Umpires would not put up with his scragging tactics if he was in a richmond jumper.

His holding on Deledio in the Richmond v WB game this year was the worst holding i have seen in a game this year.

How did he kill us this year?

Addison had 19 disposals that day and my memory is of him tagging Deledio who had 30 disposals.


He gets bugger all off the ball ( averages about 13 disposals), doesn`t tackle a lot (averages about 3 tackles), has kicked only 11 goals in his 59 game career, turns 24 next month and has only played 4 AFL games this year.

And to top it off he has always had a knock on his kicking by Dogs supporters.

So what are his strengths?
 
This little so-and-so came to run a school clinic with us a couple of years ago. In the Q&A with the students, one asked which is the team they like to play against the most.

Addison strating giggling with his mates (Hahn & Hargreave) and said "It would have to be Richmond. We always flog them cos they are just hopeless. They're not very good blokes either so that always makes it fun."

Always wished him the worst since. Pass - I couldn't bear it!
 
I doubt he would add anything to our list and would most likely clog it up.
Personally I would prefer to have Grigg as our back up tagger behind Jackson.
I think Helbig could also be developed in this role next year.
 
cant ruck, cant play CHB, cant play small defensive fwd or back and is not a big bodied extraction machine - cant see how he adds value?

Hopper's already mentioned it but thought I'd dig the thread up. Been back to this several times over the years...I'm not sure why (is there a more irrelevant club?). Maybe because unfortunately they've kept beating us but hopefully that's a thing of the past. Aside from the fact that he's a hack he sounds like a complete tool and not the kind of character we'd want at our club.

and there lies why we havent played finals in 10 years. we have been the laughing stock of the AFL and duds like addison, hahn and hargrave are happily taking the p1ss out of us in front of school kids because we have been so ordinary. dogs touched us up again this year and as for him saying "we arent very good blokes", i fail to see how any opposition club would come out and say "geez we pumped them today but they were a top bunch of blokes".

as for drafting him, no chance and the joke will be on him when he hasnt played in a grand final by the time he is 30 and we are about to start round 1 of 2017 looking to make it 3 in a row and having dustin martin comparred to leigh matthews as possibly the greatest of all time ;D
 
ahh maybe i have him mixed up with Callan Ward just remember saying at the time who the bloody hell is that prick with the boofy hair
 
I thought he might be a player 3 years ago. He has gone backwards and his kicking is poor so agree not worth looking at.
 
Just watching the VFL grand final and quite apart from being a tool this guy's a putrid footballer. Absolute hack. Enjoy anonymity numbnuts! :cutelaugh
