Game thread V Dogs

[archiemoses]

Fcvk. Lucky half time came now!

 

[Eagle87]

Wilkes again. He was free to mark due to the shepherd and instead he punched it 2 m to his direct opponent.

Our weak links are letting us down as the Dogs improve.

 

[Hap Hapablap]

Just then?

officially.

 

[fullbull]

We really need to start the second half well, because if we don't, the game could be over at the 15 minute mark of the 3rd quarter

 

[W3llsy]

Wilkes just threw away his contract with 60 minutes of footy.

Bullies are good, they were always going to hit back, we just need to fire up again in the 3rd. We are playing about 6 opponents with heart atm.

 

[Sammy J]

So annoying to be up 47 and now only up 22. If we went in 40 points up wouldve been a massive confidence booster, instead we have a power of work to do to hold them off.

God I hope we can stop em, im worried now.

 

[swannies]

Just giving them a chance people! Just think what these kids will be like with 2-3 proper pre-seasons under their belts, whoa baby!

 

[Quinz]

Lost the tight grip we had on the game in the last 10 minutes, very frustrating. Fire them up at the half Woosha, need to keep fighting.

 

[Eagle87]

1.20 to go, up 34 and Lecca has a chance he would kick 8 out of 10. Misses, they kick 2 soft goals in the remaining minute. 22 points.

Very very poor last couple of minutes.

Agreed.

Wilkes should've punched that ball 10 rowes into the stands if he couldn't mark it.

 

[Crimson King]

If we hold them off in the 3rd quarter, I think we will win.

My major worry is our fitness and mental application. We all know how much that has let us down in recent times.

 

[MerryHell]

Make the most of your last game for us Wilkes...

 

[E Shed]

Great half from your boys. Swift did some very nice work in the clinches. Very very strong at breaking tackles. Looks just a tiny bit like some other bloke who used to play for you, can't remember his name, think it starts with J.
Naita starting to look at home in the bigtime too.
Bet this feels better than tanking for picks.

 

[Bacchus]

Wilkes has given bullies two goals, playing WAFL football, got them back in the game.

 

[Quinz]

I agree CK, a few doubts now after 19 (18?) losses in a row interstate, playing a very good side. Just need to start the next quarter well.

Really annoyed at the finish of that quarter, just need to lock it down in the last few minutes in that situation.

Cheers E Shed. That part where he ran through 4 tackles with his arms up looked a lot like the great man didn't it? Good signs from Swifty.

And yes, winning games is much more enjoyable than tanking.

 

[Majinbuu]

Why did wilkes punch argh. He had to mark it.

 

[Makka]

Sheesh! How quickly the game changed in that last few minutes. I sure hope Woosha is getting stuck into them and half time. I'd hate to see us cough this lead up that we had. Have to come out hard at them again and not let up. We got smashed in the centre in that last few minutes. Got to get back on top of that again!

Beautiful day here too. Doggies played like us in the first 40 minutes. We got too cocky with some shots on goal. Need to learn how to put them away.

 

[Crimson King]

The worse thing that could happen is us going back to reactive footy. We will get smashed if we do that. Take the game on and take risks. It has worked thus far.

 

[Sammy J]

I worry about our ability to hold them off. We havent won away from home in a long time, and if the crowd gets behind them, i dunno if we can stop em.

 

[Bacchus]

Lol we've had some gifts from the umps! Dogs would be spewing!

Don't agree! What's the free kick count? Oh, I forgot, they don't give it.

 

[WCE57]

Just giving them a chance people! Just think what these kids will be like with 2-3 proper pre-seasons under their belts, whoa baby!

Wasn't quite a believer in the kids but its slowly coming together, isn't. Looking at the Judd trade, its kind of working out for us Kennedy and Masten, itself, looks like a bargain

Butler, Houlihan and Ebert have been very good. And I thought Adam Selwood has been excellent as always.

 

[Adam Selwood]

Poor Wilkes, he did some good things but then he killed his good work with 2 or 3 brain fades.

Man I want to win this one, can't stand the Dogs- most overrated team going around, absolute junk.

Embley, Kennedy, Lecca and A Selwood have all been amazing thus far

 

[Quinz]

7-10 Bulldogs way.
