Beau Dowler

[saintbob]

Would Beau Dowler be worth a look, he's had a bit of AFL experience and is a reasonable size.
I' m not sure what his forms been like in the VFL this year but I thought he showed a bit while he was with the Hawks.
Anyone got any thoughts ???

[SaintPav]

I'd rather be getting games into Siposs.

[plugger66]

No.

Hasnt Dowler been playing FB and doing pretty well for Sandy? Not sure how Sippa comes into it. I would consider him for a rookie spot if nothing else presents itself during trade/draft period.

Rarely (if ever) listed in Sandy's best,

although, defenders are rarely recognised... perhaps its a VFL thing...

Been very very good this year. The "best" named after each game is load of crap. Tommy Walsh was named in there every week last year.

I though he was a forward so that's how he comes into it.

Played majority down back but has gone forward in couple games and kicked few goals. Even had run in ruck on weekend!

Fair enough but I meant in his days for the Hawks but I guess he kicked 11 goals from 16 games playing at full back.

I think we might have got him in to have a look. Pelchen must have seen something in him.

Pelchen likes people called "Beau"


Whether he can play or not is another question

[Old Mate]

Pelchen would have been at the Hawks at the time that Dowler was recruited so I reckon he must have some confidence left in.

Pelchen was also at the Hawks the time Beau Muston was recruited. Dowler should be judged on his VFL form. Is he tearing it up in the VFL ? See how finals pan out I guess.

I think Id much prefer we focus on getting sr games into Jackson Ferguson down back.

[cwrcyn]

I don't think he's the answer and I'd be very surprised if Watters & co would put him onto the main list. Perhaps he could come in as a mature aged rookie, but I doubt it. Best to look elsewhere. What about Markovich from the Bulldogs or Charlie Dixon from Gold Coast? Wouldn't cost us too much.

Jackson is being groomed as a CHB, we still need a big defender for the power forwards

Jack is being groomed as a key back. That could be CHB or FB. He played FB for most of the game last week. Dowler isnt good enough anywhere.

[SainterK]

Fair enough, just going off what he told me...

Fair enough. He isnt a smart man though.

Markovich is rubbish and if we want to pick up a hack we might as well just develop our own and Dixon probably is in the Coasters best 22. He is really young hence his body breaks down a bit.

Will be a really good second ruck/forward.

[doggerel]

He has been good st Sandy this yr. I reckon it is very likely we will pick him up as a backup in the key back position, perhaps mature age rookie listed.
