Surely there's no chance of Skelton starting before Wilson. Defies any logic.

honestly Wilson is a gun player. Jeral seems to me he will be bottom of the pick. Something about him when I saw him training last week kind of turned me off where like he thinks he maybe won’t be picked and isn’t a 100% committed

I got the same vibe but I hope I’m wrong. He has so much potential

I hope that's not the case, and that he steps up this year.
The little we saw of him in NRL showed he has the ability and potential.

Really depends on how the Bulldogs want to use him. I can see us converting him to a second rower even if just to use as an impact player.

Wilson will be a excellent first grader, hope we keep him long term, hopefully becomes our left winger once Fox is gone.

Yeah I thin critta will be our right centre.
Xerri and fox on the left
Critta and kiraz on the right
If my memory serves me correct, Xerri played all his time at centre on the right side.

Willie Mason also confirmed on his Levels Podcast that "Xerri Is a right side centre" earlier this week when they previewed the Bulldogs squad.

Well he's wrong. He prefers the left, only played on the right because Morris was the left centre. He eventually replaced Morris at left centre but obviously didn't play much footy after that point.

Not sure about that time line, Xerri didn't play in 2020 and JMoz left and went to the Chooks after Round 2 in 2020.

I agree.
Wilson looks like a "franchise" player.
If skelton only played 5 games last year there must be a reason for that.
Maybe not a great trainer or just has the yun-yun mentality of drifting in and out of games.
Wouldn't mind seeing him develop into a 2nd row type for '25

Skelton struggles to read defensive patterns.

My recollections are that when Xerri went to left centre, jmoz went to the left wing, and then jmoz went to the chooks after that.
