#34 - Luamon Lual

I reckon of that lot, Jones would actually hold some trade value. Albeit not huge. His athleticism and versatility would 100% appeal to teams. You’d get at least a 3rd rounder for him, maybe a second if you’re lucky. Point is, I don’t reckon he’d be a straight out delisting.

Agree with all the others. You hope Davey shows something before year’s end obviously but yeah, needs to demonstrate that one clear deficiency is out of his game to have any hope.

CJ was coming from back injury and missed our game, but he played last Thursday against FC

Cj is blisteringly fast though. Lual is not

Lual was a late pick. Always very speculative. Hasn’t shown much and doesn’t have any distinguishable weapons. Delist and move on.

Dodoro loved to game the system.

He was the Arthur Daley of list managers.

I believe Arthur Daley had a few wins though

True,

But I’d count Merrett, Martin and Duz as the few wins amongst a barrage of failures.

Dogs couldn’t match though because the bid was before 40, it was just dodoro trying to be smart but failing.

I thought Lual looks pretty good pace wise…maybe thats just in comparison to EFC Guys.

Per AFL article pre draft
“Lual, a 181cm defender with serious pace, is tied to the Western Bulldogs’ Next Generation Academy”

Last years was more footy iq knowing how to get more of the footy, getting to the right spots, defensively he was only ok.

Merrett was Bomber Thompsons gift.
Dodoro was ready to pull the trigger on Lobb

Didn’t run inside 3 seconds for 20m sprint so it can’t be too amazing. Unless his acceleration is ordinary but he’s good over 50-100m

Arguably though acceleration is more important anyway.

Oh yeah that’s right

Maybe the dogs told him not to ace the test so would fall outside 40 :wink:

This bloke is like my dad just goes missing for long stretches and when he does try he stuffs it up

Needs to show something quickly or it will be an easy call.

I think lual has 2 younger brothers coming through, i saw them in some list of younger high level state based talent last week.

What a waste

Annoying that Joel Freijah was there at this pick. Lual probably would’ve still been there at our rookie picks
