AFL 2015, Round 5 - Sydney v W. Bulldogs, SCG, 2.40pm

[frednirk]

The thunderous echoes of a vanquished Goliath crashing to the ground. David wipes the sweat from his brow....

With about 30 seconds left Pyke took a mark from a ball that was touched off the boot, he and everyone at the ground thought it was marked but it was called play on- it was the right decision, but I can see why someone caught up in the excitement of the game who didn't know it was touched would be booing. Why try to read anything into it other than that?

Perhaps realise there was a legitimate reason for the mark being disallowed?

It follows on from personal experience at the SCG, I've witnessed sickening booing of opposition players as they have been stretchered off.

Just a shame they couldn't have played SOTW at a decent volume to drown it out.

Well done doggies - super win. I thought we would break away once the rain started, but you had all the answers.

The boos were for the umps who didn't pay what looked like a pretty clear mark to Pyke at the end (we didn't get a replay at the ground).

Sydney really have some problems bringing the ball out of defense. Not enough competent ball users.

 

[Testekill]

The sudden cut during the team song.. Come on Fox really?! As if anyone even waiting to watch golf!

A replay of golf at that.

**** YOU HONEYCHURCH!, this k.hunt gave me a ******* heartattack with his kick.

1st heart attack: thinking he will actually try to kick for goal and win us the game.!
2nd heart attack: sydney starts rebounding off the hospital pass to dahl.

HAVE A ******* PING u K.HUNT

Nah, * you 100action.

Hopefully we'll get to hear it 2 or 3 more times this year.

Seriously had tears welling up at the end.....very proud of the boys today!!!!

And for stealing stringers barrel from 60!

 

[Cosmogramma]

There isn't he isn't good enough defensively

Thanks for not jumping down my throat like every other Swans supporter.

 

[Flags_In_The_Bag]

Swans aren't the best wet weather team, given the style of play they are used to playing.

they are more a wet weather side the n the dogs...

 

[BACCS]

Victorians seem to think it's just those nasty interstaters who boo at games... memo, all clubs supporters do it, especially when they are losing!

 

[doggies ftw]

Minson, Libba and Wallis to slot back into the team. Thats our starting midfield right there. Moz to slot into defence as our best defender (well maybe Talias overtaking him). Pretty bloody handy inclusions.

 

[corbomite]

No Liberatore
No Wallis
No Morris
No Minson
No good ruckman

Ahhh, of course- a more knowledgeable sporting crowd would see a decision that goes against them, that they can't hear the actual reason for and would simply say "well I just always assume the umpire knows what they're doing!

I think most crowds would have been booing under those circumstances.

It follows on from personal experience at the SCG, I've witnessed sickening booing of opposition players as they have been stretchered off.

Just a shame they couldn't have played SOTW at a decent volume to drown it out.

I have no idea how many games I have been to at the SCG and I have never heard someone booed when stretchered off. Unfortunate if you heard it, there's idiots in ever crowd.

Except the booing started before that. I only tuned in for the last 1/4 but I wondered what/who the booing was for - thought something must have happened. Seems that what happened was the Dog's were winning

Bullshit. Roughead was our most important player for mine. A fine ruckman.

Unfortunately I think booing is becoming more and more prevalent everywhere which is disappointing. Especially after the performance the Doggies just put out.

 

[Flags_In_The_Bag]

Swans at the SCG is as hard as it gets. I'm generally worried to play the Bulldogs this year now.

We have you at Edihad too

 

[Flags_In_The_Bag]

Hahaha sydney losing to the dogs, how embarrassing.

What an idiot you are to be honest.

NO ****ING WORRIES MATE. BULLDOG HEART AND SOUL GETS YOU PLENTY.

 

[jayvee]

Great win by the Doggies, a lot to like about the way they are going about their football.

Fergal Sharkey - I mean Luke Beveridge - is doing a great job with them

 

[Flags_In_The_Bag]

By far the best caller in the game.

Has been for a few years now, loved when Bonti kicked that goal last year against Melbourne, his commentating made it more special

 

[ossie_21]

I am genuinely, incredibly excited to be able to travel from Perth to Melbourne next week to watch this team live. We may fade out towards the end of the season due to a mostly young team running out of legs, but holy s**t there are undeniable signs we are building something special.

 

[Flags_In_The_Bag]

Picken's last couple of weeks have been something else. Really matured into a strong leader.

Glad somebody from another club is finally acknowledging it

 

[Flags_In_The_Bag]

Holy crap what a game, honestly, well done bulldogs deserved that win for sure. Swans well they're just stupid, need to fix up quick for a shot at the top 4 imo. And lol @ the sydney haters and trolls, get stuffed it was a good game and dogs deserved the win.

Bravo mate
