Title: 2011 Countdown: Beau Dowler
Post by: Junktimer on October 10, 2010, 04:44:19 PM
Beau Dowler


2009 Stats (didn't play in 2010)
Games: 13
Total Score: 812
Average Score: 62.5
High: 116 (Round 21)
Low: 33 (Round 14)
Standard Deviation: 23.6
Centuries: 1 out of 13
Starting Price: $94,200
High Price: $301,900 (round 22)
Low Price: $94,200 (round 1)


Summary:
Beau Dowler is an interesting one for SC coaches in 2011.  2009 was treated as his break out rookie season, but then in 2010 he disappeared off the face of the earth.

He was a real disappointment, he wasn't even injured, he was just slogging it out at Box Hill. 

In 2011, if he can break back in the side as a key back or forward, he will be a bargain.  The 22-year-old, 196cm utility has proven that he has the ability to score. 


The Crystal Ball:

Based on last year's magic number
Price: $199,200

Based on m0nty's fanplanner
Price: $189,500

Position: FWD/DEF


Decision:
I will watch him preseason, because if he is named I will be very tempted due to his price and his MPP status.  He has only played 16 games, so, like many cheapies, he is not the most reliable choice, but he could be the cheap unique that teams need.
Will you select Beau Dowler in 2011?

I loved watching him when Buddy and Roughy were out in 2009 ;D.

Certainly has talent is in my team if he can get back into Clarkson's favour. Would of preferred him if he moved teams but doubt that this late ::). Unless Hawks trade him to the Dogs for Hill :P.

Didn't even play well in the Box Hill Reserves (what they call the "development squad"). Will be lucky to be still on the list. Might get picked up in the pre-season draft.

Again if he is there. We will find out on November 5 if he is delisted. Then there wont be much of a pre-season.

Agreed. Unless I get some whispers from the Hawks that he is ripping up the training track I can't see him getting a game an in all likelyhood will be delisted. Has the talent so I will never say never (I love the irony of the sentence) but highly doubt it.

Not suggesting that you are, just making crystal clear that others shouldn't consider him. I have seen his name on far too many short lists.

DELISTED.... as expected. I guess he might get picked up with a 70+ pick or similar if someone wants to take a punt on him.

Getting rid of Williams = best trade ever. Ok maybe second best after Essendon got rid of Lovett.
