Game Day GWS Giants v Western Bulldogs, Round 22 - 15:20 AEST, Aug 18, 2019

[who_let_the_dogs_out]

Next week will be interesting. If only we didnt s**t the bed earlier in the year against GC and Carlton.

See what happens, but it would be a shame to miss the finals. I reckon we could do some real damage come September.

You’re an utter clown mate. For a bloke to be in his 40’s like lurking on Internet forums sums up your mentality.
Enjoy that s**t sandwich.

40? Me or Bevo? I’m a looong way off my 40s.

Then go out and enjoy life and being young, rather than trolling bigfooty lol

 

[Hoops]

Bulldogs should be favourite for the flag if not for their hard draw finishing eighth

 

[nooB]

I was quietly confident about getting a result against GWS but I did think throughout the week we're gonna s**t the bed against the Crows. It's gonna be some heart breaking s**t if it happens.

Hate playing the Crows and Cats. We just don't match up well on them historically

 

[Spiritof82]

The Giants held goalless in the second half for consecutive weeks. All talent and no substance.

Supposedly first side since University achieved the feat over 100 years ago, the AFL should bring back University to replace GWS, at least they'd have some supporters turn up to their games

 

[NSWCROW]

Your club is also s**t and won't play finals either so jog on flog.

Still got 1 more flag than your rabble mate

 

[Orange Agent]

Four quarters in two games without an opposition score. Honestly we deserve to be in there. Now let’s just not crap ourselves v Adelaide.

The ladder system is pretty simple to understand. If you win enough games you make it, there's no 'vibe of the thing' wildcard spots available.

 

[NSWCROW]

Any particular free kicks you didn’t agree with? The last mark attempt inside 50 at the end for Gws should have been a free kick. Other than that which free kicks were no good? We went in harder. Not to mention we copped a goal reversal that wasn’t even obvious.

The " holding the man " call in the 2nd and the " slam " tackle stood out.

As i said before , had no bearing on the result.

Geez settle petal. I meant we deserve to be in there right now, not end of season. And we are.

There’s no corruption in the afl with the umpiring favouring teams, it’s laughable that some football fans even think that’s the case. So it is clearly the way we play?

How long is Leon contracted to the Giants for?

These were a result of GWS being tough guys all day, and the umpires ready to call them on stuff like 'the slam tackle'. Shaw, Davis, Greene were causing spot fires all day. I'd say these soft calls to The Dogs was more the umpires getting fed up with GWS's BS.

 

[The City Boyz]

No toughness in the side I'll back to us to beat GWS and get our first final win in 15 years if they play like that.

agreed, you would out work the pea hearts all around the ground and I rate your midfield over their's

Finally someone with common sense

 

[Dogs_r_barking]

Heath Shaw looks like he forgot his medication this morning, looking forward to him either having a blinder or doing something outrageously dumb. Or maybe even both?

Still haven’t learnt have they, play the ball not the man.

 

[Chief]

For the rest of the year I will be deleting umpire whinging within game day threads during the game. Argue about it after the game.

Take it To the umpire board!

 

[Dogs_r_barking]

Adz any chance of creating another Bulldogs related thread this week? What about creating one about Beveridge ?

If we play Collingwood he will have plenty of spare time to do one.

Rd1 we weren't ready for AFL footy...probably werent ready for AFLX footy to be honest.
less concerned if we travel up there in finals.

Their injuries to top end talent is killing them.

You'll need another 20 moderators there is no way all umpire posts will be getting deleted.

Lets not get carried away. Giants showed more ticker than your mob last week. Hands down worst performance ive seen in years. Truly awful.

Well the precedent's been set now.
We'll see if it continues next week.

End of 20’ but would be happy if he was paid out and finishes up end of this year. He’s basic.
