    Game Day Must Win Game Swans v Dogs SCG

    Structure and game plan. Our list is simply not as bad as our results. That sits squarely on the coach. It happens, but not every bloody year ……. No top 4 finish to date. Bev will always be a Bulldogs legend but surely enough is enough. So disappointing ……….

    There’s a reason we win inside 50’s comfortably and then lose games, or make life bloody difficult to win them. Yes our delivery isn’t always great, but kicking to a group of forwards who can’t find any separation because instinctively they are defenders or midfielders is a tough game. Last time...

    Round 1, 2021

    Interesting that many sides have just the 2 tall defenders (Keath and Cordy). I think that approach forces us to play Gardner or Wood to provide flexibility, and although Easton occasionally rolls back the years, I don’t think either are good enough.

    I’m with you. Contract too long. He’s looking at us because he has to not because he wants to. Injury prone. Do we create problems with the likes of Smith and Vandermeer (who I really like) by reducing their opportunities? Is he really good enough to tie up even $750k per year? Personal...

    Don’t have any stats to back it up, but my memory of the St Kilda version of Josh Bruce was that he was pretty mobile? Seem to recall him taking marks on the wing ..... I think his best role would be as a 3rd tall, suits his strength which is his lead up work. 2 major issues with this, he’s...

    Hi everyone, first post, be kind! The rumours have been around long enough now. Surely if Josh was committed to staying he’d have just come out and said exactly that? I hate it, but I reckon the writing is on the wall ☹️
