When last they met: Pies v Bulldogs Rd 6 2011

[Bay Pie]

Now that the cricket season hasn't got much to go and the footy pre-season starts in 3 weeks (albeit NAB Cup), I thought we could add a new feature for our weekly games about the last time these teams played.

For those that are interested here are the highlights and a match summary. Yeah getting in a bit early, to see what sort of interest this may spark.

This match probably stood out the performance of Leroy Brown in the last quarter after a Bulldog surge made the game very close.

Ah, I remember that game well, Leigh Brown in the wet in the last quarter was one of the best moments of our 2011 campaign.

We always seem to beat the Dogs, they are getting close to being a "Swans like" bunny, and with Rodney Eade now on our side, that should continue in the regular season.

How didn't Krak's goal win goal of the year???

Krak dominated that last term and a bit too

Jeez harry O had a bit of a shocker in that highlight reel. Cant wait for the nab cup.

With no morris or lake we should be able to destroy their defence, and no hall up forward their offence will seriouslly struggle too. Should be a good midfield duel though, cooney cross boyd picken v pendles thomas ball swan

I like the idea of the video highlights of the previous game. That was probably the last game where the Bulldogs played all out footy. I just remember the scores were close in a low scoring game and then in the last qtr Leroy kicked 3 goals in 5mins and the game opened right up.

The word is cooney is just about cooked his knee wont carry him through 8 games for this season.

I love that the dogs are becoming regular victories. You could tell back between 06 and the start of 2010 they had no respect. **** them .
