The Western Bulldogs 2016 draft haul will be defined by versatility above all else, with the Club selecting four players who can play a range of positions at Friday night’s NAB AFL Draft in Sydney.

205cm ruckman Tim English was taken with the Bulldogs' first pick, 19^th overall, the athletic 19-year-old impressing scouts with his ability to cover the ground and pick-up possessions.

An exceptional kick for his size with a clean pair of hands, the Western Australian boasts a genuine midfield presence.

Northern Knights product, Patrick Lipinski, taken at pick 28, made an impression early in the year as a forward before moving into the centre midway through the season and excelling.

A 30 disposal (15 contested), seven tackle and six-clearance performance in June showed what he could be capable as he matures as a player.

Both Lipinski and pick 49, Lewis Young are former basketballers with potential to burn.

The 197cm Young boasts exceptional speed and agility for his height and has a good, reliable pair of hands.  Just 17-years-old, his performance at the South Australian draft combine put him on the radar of a number of clubs.

The ultra-competitive Fergus Greene was taken with the Dogs’ last selection of the evening at pick 70.

Greene projects as a medium forward who can run all day; his 15.6 beep at the RookieMe Combine was the best recorded across any Combine this year.

The NAB AFL Pre-Season and Rookie Drafts will be held on Monday, November 28.
