Lewis Taylor is the hungriest bloke going around.

Melbourne are a better team moving the ball forward and overall when Hogan isn't playing imo.

He leads so well, they kick it to him.... but he slows down play because he can't find another option further forward.

They are better off when he isn't there as they kick forward more aggressively to try and compensate.

"Hoping" we move up the ladder next year. Like Kingy's optimism.

It's the small things too that give some sense we are heading in the right direction.

When a bit of rough stuff occurs Lynch is always there to fly the flag and remonstrate. Great Stuff.

Was privileged enough to spend some time with former Bulldog player and St.Kilda legend Nicky Winmar today.

I live in a community with a large indigenous population and the work he is doing with some of these young fellas is phenomenal.

Could not have been more impressed with the man, full of class, dignity and respect and very praiseworthy towards his time with the Dogs. Fortunately for me he will be spending more and more time in the area so I will get to know him even better!

Interesting list. I see there are three ex-WB players there when the average per club would be obviously be one. However two of those were prised out with the sizable war chest of the expansion clubs when they were assembling their initial list, and the third was a player that the majority here were happy to see leave (but has now become AA at the age of 30).

Each player's case is different. We know that there was a go-home (or go-family) factor for Harbrow and of course the Callan Ward saga has been re-hashed many times here.

I don't think we should draw any conclusions about our list management from such a small sample but it does make intriguing reading. We are, for instance, one of only two clubs to have acquired a #1 draft pick this way.

Does anyone have a solid estimation as to who will inherit the mighty #14 from Clay Smith? Is Billy Gowers a chance? I just have to ask as the previous 14 is the reason my girlfriend is a Bulldogs member.... And boy do we now have a multitude of number 14 guernseys

Darce?

Wasn't it Ward?

Stop changing numbers! Give it to our top recruit or trade in.

Maybe Rhylee West? It was Scott's original number

Having lunch at Barkers Cafe with my brother who is visiting from the states. Who walks by? Chris Grant. Talked to him and introduced him to my brother. My favorite player ever. I'm in heaven.

They have always said they base it on consistency over a period of time not always just that week.

Yeah I know, I was just taking the piss, it's nice to have two genuine nominations this year you want the young players to take over.

Watched a new ABC show 'Back in Very Small Business' last night. There is a minor character Jordy Sutton, who plays for the Western Bulldogs, and a scene shot at Whitten Oval. Show itself not bad, comedy genre.

CAROLINE WILSON TIPS A MASSIVE DEPARTURE FROM THE AFL FOOTY SHOW

Sep 7, 2018

[https://d2nzqyyfd6k6c7]

A new-look AFL Footy Show will go to air next year without its iconic star Sam Newman, says Caroline Wilson.

“I don’t reckon Sam Newman will be on the show,” Caro told FIVEaa. “We know Rebecca Maddern won’t be on the show. And we know it’s going to be a completely new show but we believe Eddie McGuire will be the host.”
“I would imagine though that Damian Barrett will probably not be on the Footy Show next year. I think he’s looking to do some other stuff with his journalistic career. That would be my prediction.”

Caro said reports of a blow up between Barrett and McGuire over a Collingwood story before last week’s show were more than just theatre.

“Neither man backed down. Damian ended up not going on the show, he stood his ground over the story but never ended up going on air and doing it. Things got incredibly heated.
“I think it’s an interesting indication of where things are at the moment.”

lol Damo.

So, Eddie is host, no Newman. no token, no bin scab... Who wants to be a millionaire has a new time slot?

Sums up where footy is at when the commentators ARE the news instead of commenting on it.
