Dolan scored 20 in the Bulldogs' 12-point home loss to Fremantle at Docklands — below his 22 BE and a non-event for a player who needs to score to justify the spot. With 16 games and rookie status intact this might seem like a hold, but two modest scores back-to-back (53, 20) and no ownership clarity means the cash gen window is closing fast. Trade him out if you have a better option; the forward line usage looks limited.
