That 104 to 69
From Website
Chris Grant’s dominance at centre half-back and Nathan Brown’s seven goals from a forward pocket have lifted the Western Bulldogs to a 35-point win against Port Adelaide in a Wizard Regional Challenge Series match at Nuriootpa’s Centennial Park on Saturday.

The Dogs set up their 15.14 (104) to 10.9 (69) victory thanks to a five-goal spurt with the blustery wind late in the second quarter.


Grant had much the better of former Kangaroo Stuart Cochrane and Brown beat off two opponents – Kane Cornes and Jared Poulton.

Centre half-back Matthew Bishop and forward-midfielder Stuart Dew (three goals) were Port’s best.

The Dogs were without Simon Garlick, Scott West, Jordan McMahon and Steven Kretiuk from their regular side, while Port was severely depleted without Matthew Primus, Darryl Wakelin, Brett Montgomery, Damien Hardwick, Adam Kingsley and ace forwards Warren Tredrea and Chad Cornes.

It may only be a practice match, but it has cast away many of the doubts I had after the Geelong match last week. Sounds like Grant had a day out and should be able to cement his spot at CHB this year. Very good news. Hopefully it will get some attention and stir up some membership.

Bassett....wasnt in the play a whole lot, but that was mainly due to the fact the ball ever got as far back as him as the Bulldogs were very strong across the defensive side of centre and half back.

Wiggins. Took some nice grabs....kicks like a hack. Had about 4 shots on goal....all from about 35-40 metres out and struggled to make the distance.

Faulkner lookde impressive. Has a nice build, quite quick and footy smart.

Mcguiness...didnt really notice him all that much on the ground. He played most of the game on the bench.
