Game Day Western Bulldogs v Adelaide Crows Round 23 - 13:10 AEST, Aug 25, 2019 (No umpiring complaints during game)

[Doggstats]

Made to look better than it is V rubbish mid fields like Crows or Bombers. V Brisbane is more accurate. The only time they looked better than average was when Zorko went off injured

You talking about the game we beat you guys when we won clearances 51-39 and had 30 more disposals?

Or the 2nd game where you guys won and we still won the clearances 42-32 and had 74 more disposals?

You guys are better than us in many areas of the game, but midfield isn't one of them.

Mate that is absolute rubbish and you know it, name a better trio than macrae, dunkley and bontempelli?

yup best midfield in the league, been saying it for months

Scary thing is they are all 190cm+.

Bontempelli 193cm, Macrae 191cm and Dunkley 190cm.

That would have to be the biggest starting midfield of all time surely.

 

[STFU Donnie]

With finals up for grabs the Crows put in two utterly woeful efforts. Perhaps they should have played their AFLW side? At least they would display some backbone.

Mundy, Fyfe and Barlow would match them, maybe?

That 4th quarter effort from the umps against the Hawks in round 2 has won us a finals spot.

Close, but not quite.

Bont 193cm > Mundy 192cm
Macrae 191cm > Fyfe 190cm
Dunkley 190cm > Barlow 189cm

But if we throw in rucks, Freo take it easy with big Sandi.

Dogs on fire, could do some serious damage

Don’t like how we have eased off after it was out to 59 points, but jobs done

Ehhh, better to conserve energy for two weeks time rather than massively go for the kill but risk injury. It's not like your ladder position could change.

Dogs by 44
The big 3 to have 100 disposals between them

Dogs by 34
Macrae 36
Dunkley 33
Bont 31

Nice prediction.

 

[Thedeftouch]

Bryce Gibbs surely gets delisted after this season, not sure how his lack of conditioning and effort can be tolerated. Not really relevant that he was good 3+ seasons ago

Would rather put the que in the rack and walk away without any injuries tbh.

Daresay youngest in 2017 and 2018 as well.

Hoping we can keep this young group together and bring it through to fulfil its potential - unlike the 2015 / 2016 teams which weren't for a variety of reasons.
