YOUNG Western Bulldog Jason Tutt has produced one of the most memorable starts to a career in AFL history, booting three goals with his first three kicks to cement his name alongside past champions such as Michael Tuck and Ian Fairley.

Soaked with Powerade following the compulsory 'first-win drenching' at the hands of his teammates, Tutt told afl.com.au that he couldn't have wished for a better start to his senior career.

"I think the first one, the ball just ended up in my hands and I had a quick shot and it went through," 20-year-old recalled after the Dogs' 60-point victory over the Power.

"Then the next one went through and I was thinking 'Gee, this AFL footy is pretty easy really'," he joked.

"But nah, it was good to get on the board and help the boys have a win."

Tutt finished with 26 disposals, seven inside 50s and four goals for the match, roaming the wings of AAMI Stadium largely unchecked.

Caretaker coach Paul Williams was glowing in praise of his first-gamer following the clash, highlighting Tutt's hard work ethic and persistence at training.

"He's got a really big tank. He's really developed all year and he's really grown a hell of a lot."

"I think he got out a little bit early because - as a first-gamer - they probably didn't go to him that tight."

Despite the dream start to his AFL journey, Tutt admitted he still had a lot to learn to become a regular in the Bulldogs' senior squad.

"I've always been a bit of an outside player and I think I got a few more [possessions] outside than inside today," he said.

"I think this is the first time I've cramped all year as well. I usually play most of the time on the wing [with Williamstown in the VFL], but in the third quarter I started cramping.

"It's just work rate I guess, that's the main difference. In the VFL you're going up and back but you don't do it as quick. So I've got a few things to work on."

After snapping a four-game losing streak with victory against Port Adelaide, Tutt said the Bulldogs were eager to test themselves at the MCG against flag-fancy Hawthorn.

"It will be a good challenge," he said.

"They've got big 'Buddy' down there and Cyril [Rioli] running around, so it will be good for the boys to see how we go against them. Hopefully I can keep my spot."

Tutt is one of 10 Bulldogs to have made his AFL debut this season, with players such as Luke Dahlhaus, Tom Liberatore and Mitch Wallis already attracting a cult following at Whitten Oval.

With Tutt for a name and a keen goal sense, he too looks set to become a crowd favourite at the Dogs as they head into a new era.
