Game Day Round 2, 2023: Western Bulldogs v St.Kilda

[George]

Looks like you've all forgotten the ride the umpires gave us in the first quarter lol. It's been s**t frees to both sides.

 

[The Jack]

Was anyone else 100% confident Higgins was going to miss. Owens needs to improve his set shots as well. I’ve given up on Higgins.

 

[bird_man]

Let their midfield get on top of us and couldn't stop the momentum

Gresham was unsighted that qtr

Not having a quality key forward is killing us. 10 up in the inside 50's, we just can't get the most out of it

Except theirs result in 3 goals mini-champ

 

[Joffaboy]

We will lose but Saints bring that game plan with a half decent team in and we know which direction we are going and it is all good.

Mitch is a terrible kick of a drop punt unfortunately.

 

[Munga]

Dogs are top 3 divers and duckers. Can't blame the umps too much, but they shouldn't be falling for it, pun intended.

Umpires kicked it for them too did they? No worries, semi-pro

I walked out of the room, knew he would miss

I love him but it's been a while since he hasn't felt like a liability out there. He flops out of contests, gets beaten fairly often and sooks it up. I think we should try playing him up the ground a little and move Gresham more into the full forward position.

It’s not how many. It’s where you get them or don’t get them.

No just gave it to them in kickable positions...you're a bit simple there George

Love the umpire on the audio " thought it was in the back" free to Garcia I think. Pity Battle didmt reply with "well you thought wrong Champ."

Our inside 50s in second quarter shows a lack of confidence with our forwards. Couple clearly should have resulted in kicks on goal Steele and Hill..... to be expected put King and or Membrey there and we would have put the Dogs to the sword.

We got a couple of lucky free kicks in the first but golly it swung the other way. Higgins hasn't beeen able to fix his goal kicking - a shame

No just gave it to them in lockable positions...you're a bit simple there George

The irony

 

[Dard Ball Get]

Keeping things in perspective, I’m hugely excited by what we’ve seen today. Hammer, Pou, Owens, Stocker all great.
Battle and Sincs incredible, Steele has lifted to his old standard.

Add in King and 5-7 others being available and another year or two under our belts and it’s an exciting core imo

 

[StJHD]

Useless stats guys: I want a stat for WHERE frees are paid. Last week they had 4 of 5 goals from frees. This week same, just a shocker. It is a joke.

 

[Ephemeral Hope]

Who do I need to be ******* angry at for letting bont get 9 touches in a quarter??? Who was on him

They actually paid one freekick for a throw...missed the other seven, even with extra umpires.

 

[Ephemeral Hope]

We blew too many opportunities in the first quarter and a half. Kicking inside 50 abysmal.

Yep. If our lead is 50 points they don’t come close even with the free kciks

 

[Veer Right]

Hope we activate the sub sooner rather then later. If it was me i am tagging Smith with Windhager. Regardless he's to good to not be out there.

Imagine Hammer and Max up there in two years time! He looks so much like Max when he plucks those grabs at the highest point. Moves incredibly well too.

that Higgins one and the running owens shot after hills marking contest with Bruce were the blows we really needed to land. We are pushing it uphill without the keyforwards, Dogs adjustments were always coming.

Tag smith? the s**t campaigner must kick at 1% efficiecny

How many times holding the ball?
