Review Finals Baby!!!! Look out Plastics...here we come! (Bulldogs 121 d Crows 87)

[the dog's kennel]

Give me Brisbane at the Gabba over Richmond at the G. No fears playing Brisbane up there, should have beaten them a few weeks ago!

That's a fair point, TI. But for me it's all about increasing the unlikely long-run chances of a premiership. I reckon 1 trip to Sydney and 3 Melbourne games is a more likely route than 1 trip to Sydney, then 1 trip to Brisbane and 2 Melbourne games. Hopefully it doesn't matter either way!

What is the knee story exactly? All I know is he split his kneecap and struggled to train properly ever since.

We made him play with a split knee cap IIRC and it destroyed his cartilage. Was never the same player. Struggled to train after that.

Did we make him play or was the alternative he retired and did not play again as the injury was never fully reparable?

Just on Young, he's coming along nicely but it seems like he's getting a bad habit of going to his knees for a loose ball. He really needs to clean that up over the offseason, it's got him caught out a few times the last two weeks

You're right, good observation.

 

[Mr. Walker]

For those who saw it what is the opinion on Keath's effort? Or did the rolled ankle (?) leave too small a sample size?

Not sure of the finer details. Think we jabbed him up and let him run around in a final from memory.

Not sure, but he didn’t make the All
Australian squad, never mind the actual team, so at least Crows fans can stop using that when talking up his value!

I mean finals are nice, but it all just feels so hollow after losses to Gold coast and Carlton.....

I agree Hard Ball Get, it's hard to know whether the first 11 Games of the season and a 4 Wins and
7 Losses ratio or the after BYE record of 11 Games of the season for an 8 Wins and 3 Losses ratio
is the real Bulldogs. It's odd we scored 100 Points or over once in the first eleven games and then
scored 100 Points or over five times in the last eleven. Want to see the statistical tipping points of
the season, you will have to wait for our finals exit hopefully a month or so away.

I know you are taking the p155, but I hope we have decent analysts.

Didn’t see enough to make a judgement. Both sides were playing bruise free footy...

I am not there yet but very close to changing my opinion regarding Bailey Dale. Well done to him.

There is no room left on the Dale train! Its like one of those you see from India with people hanging out the doors and windows!
