Got me buggered how the Doggies won last years flag. Very ordinary team.

To clear your confusion it's because they were actually a fantastic team last year. The best team as it were. A ******* great team. Hope I've helped

The replay.
Nice try...

I admire you for sticking with the free kick Dogs stuff after a game when they got 1 free kick over the 2nd and 3rd quarter. Well played to you

Geezus Dwayne is hard to cop - even as a neutral.

Yeah boy. It's unbearable. We seem to cop him as a rule.

Smacked you spuds! LOL

Reread my post carefully.

Champion team that keeps winning year after year with 6-10 players out. We won the flag not because of skill, but because of heart. And deep down that is what drives people bitter towards us, because it's fine if your team can't win a flag if it's not skilled enough, but not being brave enough is unacceptable. People look at our success and wonder why their team couldn't be as courageous, or try as hard. It drives them nuts that we won a premiership on being actual bravedogs.

Won 19 games last year beat EVERY team bar one. Thats not ordinary. Thats very good.

Bulldogs 4 dtb in a row = no free kick. I'm independent, but the Bulldogs get the world....

You're not independent. Your full of jealousy and are grumpy ur mob have had a bad day.

Honestly wtf is clokes role? Decoy?

Gives us a target up the line, takes a defender, good for our structure, competes and brings ball to ground. Was a bit better tham OK the last 2 weeks. Better than the current alternatives.

What's last year got to do with this year?

Best thing would be doggies finish 8th, Tigers 5th, then you will see first hand why we won last year's flag

I think there's significant upside, if he played in a decent team.

Premiership player at 20 years old, I'd say he's fairly happy with the club he's at.

The Dogs are such a 1 man team. Without the Bont they are bog average.

That's 2 weeks in a row he has carried them.

Guess that makes two of us. #Dangerfield

Missing the reigning Norm Smith medallist, one of our best defenders in Morris, our two best goalkickers in the past three years in Dickson and Stringer our best second ruck in Boyd not playing and having our premiership captain injured in the first quarter.

A gutsy interstate win with our backline held together by two kids and our third-string forwardline.


The amount of neutrals in here death-riding the Dogs and Bont out of jealousy deserve to watch us win again and again.

I love coming to these threads after we win and having a timeline of all the usual cry-w***ers piling in, getting their hopes up, saying a bunch of idiotic BS, then melting. Their tireless efforts never fail to brighten up my weekends.

I'm sure that's a tongue in cheek comment from a Geelong supporter

Watch the replay...

Have watched the replay today. Sorry got nothing for you.

Apart from the hitouts which Roughy loses most weeks, that's a statistical smashing, 14.19 could've been 19.14 I guess but credit to Brisbane exposing us again, like in R5.

Lions efficient again inside 50 generating scores, while our inefficiency at creating scores, or missing shots nearly cost us again.

Once Brisbane become defensively sound they'll work their way up the ladder. Gotta stop the turnovers and find more kids who can win/find their own footy. Witherden looks an absolute jet for them and could become an elite rebounder very quickly, potentially next year if he keeps fit and his form up and I reckon there's a heap to work with in someone like Cutler (think he's been out for a few weeks).

Lol Bontempelli is so bad

This is why no one takes you seriously, bro.

Putrid judge of football.
