Don't you hate that.

I was actually talking about Tom Boyd. 

He's been good too. 

[chook fowler 19,551]

Love Caleb Daniel 

[Sir Why You Little 37,130]

Wow. Look close MFC

Could have been us...

[Cards13 9,117]

Just brilliant to watch!

Bloke I used to work with has flow over to this from Melb, he's a mad Eagles fan.. Hahahha a fun red eye home!

[Return to Glory 8,448]

Loving this.

[Return to Glory 8,448]

Well aren't the Meth Coke huge pretenders.

There's nothing you can't love about watching West Coast play awfully on their own home ground. It's a lot harder when the umpires don't gift you the game.

Amazing that the Dogs have done so well with Stringer having absolutely no impact (until that goal) and the Bont quiet for more than a half.

A very well-deserved win.

[Cheap Seats 3,310]

Go dogs

 

Jack Darling oh dear a couple really really poor errors tonight 

[Deestroy All 14,266]

Darling with a finals footy moment to remember. 

[Macca 17,034]

They're a slick outfit the Doggies ... and their teamwork is immense.

They'll trouble whoever they play next Friday night

[titan_uranus 25,043]

Feels a lot like West Coast has done a Melbourne with this one (except we obviously never do this in finals). Just feels a bit like they thought they had the win before they started playing. Selection error (dropping Jetta for a tall and then being cut up by the Dogs' run), some of their stars playing selfish football (it feels like a team vs 22 individuals).

If the Dee's can just clone Bontempelli, Dalhaus and Daniel I think we'd be a real shot at a premiership

Yep i agree. Dogs took them on from the first bounce. 

Great to hear Basil's commentary...

[titan_uranus 25,043]

I love watching the West Coast midfielders duck their heads into tackles and then, when the umpire correctly refuses to pay a free for a high tackle, the midfielder has no idea what to do next.

The crowd know what to do though.

Jong out for game, in tears could be season and his last game with the dogs.

That was absolutely heart breaking.

Can't wait to hear Tim Gosage on SEN tomorrow morning. He was on today raving about Eagles and how they were super confident of tonight and going deep into finals.. Ox was all over him and asked him if he would be in tomorrow if Eagles lost

[Redleg 41,443]

One thing it tells you, if you have pace, good disposal and effort, you can be a good side, even without a great key forward.

[mo64 5,881]

Caleb Daniel is a gun. Is so composed and doesn't waste a possession. 

Well done to Luke Beveridge. Never heard him complain about their constant injuries or use youth as an excuse for lack of effort. Hopefully Goodwin takes a leaf out of his book.

[Redleg 41,443]

If the Cats beat the Hawks, then every non Hawks fan, will be supporting the Dogs next week.

[Diamond_Jim 12,628]

Hate to sound like a broken record but to all those who excused our last two games on the basis that we were young or tired.... have a look at what a "TEAM" can do.

They had every right after their incredibly bad run with injuries  and then ending up with the almost impossible finals assignment to say... we are too young and too tired but they played to their strengths and won easily.

Yes ... I am very jealous !!!

[hemingway 7,631]

The underdogs became the victorious Bulldogs. A win for the good guys.  Makes me think that there is a footy God after all. I would walk on hot coals to see them beat the Hawks or the Cats. What a beautiful thing that would be. 

[Jaded No More 68,974]

So so happy for the Dogs. At least there is one team in the finals that don't make me sick to my stomach.

They were fantastic tonight, and credit to them for not giving up despite their mounting injury list. Here's hoping they knock out Whorethon next week!

[Bobby McKenzie 2,385]

Well done Doggies!!  Its great to see the Weagles bomb out on their own dunghill. Particularly pleasing for me as a Victorian living in Perth.

Kennedy has not fired tonight which doesn't surprise as he has always been a down hill skier. Most of his goals have been against the lowly teams where he kicked a few bags. Hope the Doggies can repeat the dose on Geelong or Hawthorn next week.
