Just to clarify tho, that impact may well have hampered Nakia too, as well as the trauma of it. Dan does have a very robust skull.

Dev and Paine are the future.
Froggy isn't.
Sort of changes we needed during the year.

So because we have scored over 100 against some s**t sides we should not look to improve it? Yeah Linc has about 5 million runs on the board so that’s just ridiculous. Ok- Cockatoo has been better than him every other game they have played together so what’s that say. What are these good games you speak of? and remember you said good. Not hating on the bloke- he is not up to it esp finals.

Apart from his last two games I thought he'd been quite good since returning to the side.

Gold Coast and Hawthorn were pretty good
You don't think the coaches would select someone other than Fullarton if they thought it would improve our performance?
Watching AFL Tonight on delay. Wow, bit of a Doggies focus lol, and then switching around when they talk about us with the narrative that we have only won one final in recent times.
To be fair that one final was against a Richmond side considered undefeatable, which did go on to win the flag.
Before last weekend, the previous Bulldogs finals win was 2016 wasn't it?
I guess you can spin a story however you want.

He came on about 10 mins into the match and was useless

Good to see that GC family have tested negative. We should have averted a lockdown now, and the game should be all good to go ahead.

6 weeks ago for a ‘pretty’ good game.
What a stupid argument- of course they would- we might as well shut all discussion about selection if that’s the measure. Thought this was about opinions? He barely provides a contest, doesn’t have the core strength to hold his ground and gets pushed out of the contest way to easy. Can barely recall him taking a mark down the line or a contested mark for that matter. I believe frog can provide a contest and add something at ground level along with better ball use. Adds some flexibility to the team ass well.
Mooch
🏆 🦍
I hadn't seen that but it certainly is good news!

You can discuss it but it’s a bit OTT to say the coaches aren’t looking to improve.
...not even bothering to watch this game????????
Tested negative for now though yeah? They'll remain in lockdown for a couple of weeks getting tested on day 13 & 17?
So that's not going to be a problem.
Still some potential of positives turning up in the next two days from the Truckie who was tested on Aug 28 though?

So you wouldn’t argue against any of those things I have said which are the reasons I don’t believe he is up to it? Your theory is because we score 100 against Collingwood and West Coast we should leave the team as it is? Didn’t say the coaches aren’t looking to improve the team, just made a suggestion I thought would.
Zorko did say during the week that cocky was absolutely devastated by what happened! Said it took a few days to get back to his usual self with a big smile in his face!
Can Payne play forward?
Until we see who runs out on Saturday night and where they line up it's a bit pointless trying to work out whether we've stuffed up or not. Plus there's about 6 guys including the emergencies where we have no real read on fitness, except of course what we saw last week.
So I'm melting slowly antarctic style ,plenty of time to pull myself together if we're all good to go somewhere near the way I'd like to see us line up on the night.

Watching on a big delay now, but AFL Tonight reporting the game is sold out.
Fullarton seems to be copping the brunt. Not sure he was any worse than 4 or 5 others last week.
It's not his fault if he keeps getting picked . He'll go a lot better against the Dogs than the Demons imo ,especially at the Gabba. Not that he's any better than Ballenden, which he isn't ,nor that what he does will make much difference to us this week. We need the real Zorko and Lyons to front up and Andrews to be what he can be. There's about 6 goals difference there.

Do you really have to talk about a Lions player as "useless"...he has just been resigned for 2 years. How may AFL games have you played twhowler?
