Bulldogs coach Brendan McCartney is here! Fire away now using #AskTheCoach pic.twitter.com/BRxxZwzTBe
— AFL (@AFL) January 22, 2014.@Ginty80 You will, you'll also see him in the ruck. We think he'll end up being a good player in both areas #AskTheCoach
— AFL (@AFL) January 22, 2014.@nbcraft99 Stewie will add a lot of mobility and power to a young group that we're confident is progressing well #AskTheCoach
— AFL (@AFL) January 22, 2014.@Thao_le7 More improvement again, and being prepared to take on the strong teams more aggressively, plus the emergence of kids #AskTheCoach
— AFL (@AFL) January 22, 2014.@shaunwilks77 At times, also forward. And where he's always played his best footy in the middle. Midfield will be deeper #AskTheCoach
— AFL (@AFL) January 22, 2014.@stevosmith9 If everything goes to plan, Clay will be back playing early April. Progressing really well #AskTheCoach
— AFL (@AFL) January 22, 2014Remaining stable & consistent in what's a crazy footy world! RT @AzzaG1989: What has been your biggest challenge as a coach? #AskTheCoach
— AFL (@AFL) January 22, 2014.@rambleon80 @Luke_dahlhaus Yeah he will, but he'll still spend plenty of time where he plays really well - up forward #AskTheCoach
— AFL (@AFL) January 22, 2014.@Dan_Sward Hard to say before we see them in games, but they're all dealing with training really well #AskTheCoach
— AFL (@AFL) January 22, 2014@GatherThePack Seeing our young team deal with difficult patches in games, seeing our fans enjoy our games & getting prouder by the minute.
— AFL (@AFL) January 22, 2014@JebFahour His body is growing, he's getting fitter and learning a lot from Steven King and Joel Corey. Going to be a very very good player.
— AFL (@AFL) January 22, 2014.@davioo Yep we do. But he'll also be a very damaging forward when his body can deal with AFL footy. #AskTheCoach
— AFL (@AFL) January 22, 2014@blakeg1993 Our philosophy is just to keep training hard, working hard and doing everything right. We'll deal with every game as it comes.
— AFL (@AFL) January 22, 2014.@AndrewJohnEgan The club has a unique place in a unique part of Melbourne, we're hard-working & humble. I love that about us! #AskTheCoach
— AFL (@AFL) January 22, 2014.@rambleon80 @BobMurphy02 All of the above… not sure on the naughty! #AskTheCoach
— AFL (@AFL) January 22, 2014.@EbenezerScot Lachie is dealing with training and conditioning very well. Natural midfielder as he develops. #AskTheCoach
— AFL (@AFL) January 23, 2014.@McRathDT Yes, our recruiters rated him highly. You will love his competitiveness and how hard he tries #AskTheCoach
— AFL (@AFL) January 23, 2014.@Reidy1992 We're going to keep working as hard as we can, to be as good a team as we can, as quick as we can #AskTheCoach
— AFL (@AFL) January 23, 2014Yes it is, and will probably be the last! Enjoy it! Haha RT @Johno_37: @AFL is this the first time you have ever used twitter? #askthecoach
— AFL (@AFL) January 23, 2014@RLGriffin85 Daniel Pearce and Ayce Cordy #AskTheCoach
— AFL (@AFL) January 23, 2014.@andrew_54 Maybe Shaun Higgins further up the ground, wing and halfback. #AskTheCoach
— AFL (@AFL) January 23, 2014.@tpwalmsley Exciting natural player who just loves the game. Could end up playing in any position. A big guy who can run #AskTheCoach
— AFL (@AFL) January 23, 2014I've gotta run but had a ball. Thanks for all the great questions and go Dogs! - Macca #GatherThePack #AskTheCoach
