Bulldogs defn need a decent hooker.

Thing is with Radley is that he's got a good running game and is an attacker. Brailey doesn't really have this imo. He's a stop gap middle forward in case of emergencies or to cover for 20 mins.

Like you said, the important thing here is what he wants, and he's said many times he wants to be a starting hooker. He doesn't want some bench forward spot.

The dream of playing with his brother has happened. Now they both want to be starting hookers.

There's really only one way i can look at this situation.
Years gone by we have picked at other teams juniors when they were coming into grade and being established. Now we have very decent juniors coming through and others have been looking a while.
Be proud that our junior system is working , and hope that we keep the ones we really want.
I will definitely be one to say good luck to B1 in whatever path he chooses.

Nah - he’ll always be a fringe first grader, which is why he’s at his 3rd club in 3 years...

Raiders, Rorters, Cowboys...

I like Baptiste. He has some errors, but is a very dangerous attacker and very under rated.

No way we need him though. We just offloaded Segeyaro, who is a better version of Baptiste, because he couldn't get a start.

If we lose Brailey jnr, then we can start thinking about cheap reserve grade back ups.

He is exactly Segeyaro.

Got 3-4 bad passes in him per game and he plays minimal minutes. He has dropsy badly at times. He defends very well and can scoot from DH if the hame is going right. No kicking game either.
