I can't believe BT just said Boyd is growing into a star...... he is a [censored]

He gives Dwayne a run for his money as one of the more inane and infuriatingly stupid commentators in the AFL media landscape. Just an absolute spud.

As they say in the classics ... "You make your own luck"

The Bulldogs are total-team ... our players can learn a lot from how they go about it AF.   Nothing like learning from the best.

Absolutely, mate. The best teams often push the rules to their absolute limit, but I don't like it when they cross the line and the Bulldogs for two years (like Hawthorn - ie S Mitchell) have got away with throwing the ball, more often than not.

Yep ... and it's up to the 'custodians' to knock what you're saying* on the head ... they're one step behind but it could be argued that they're certainly aware of the issue and don't care.

Buddy clearly blocked out of the contest. No free. 

Luv the bell tolling afta every dog goal.......we need something Deemonic.....an eeerie harmonica maybe on the PA afta all the goals were gunna kick??...sorry that's all I got

The dogs are a good team, we will b better.

If the Bulldogs were a 5 goal better side than us last year, I wonder where we stand this year.

I have a funny old feeling we've really closed the gap on Sydney, but time will tell, as they tend to start the season slowly and hit form near the back end.

And they FINALLY get pinged for throwing it!

They still look a few weeks off peak form Doggies.

Jesus the commentary is appalling, every player is a superstar, gun and outstanding!! 

Quality game.

Footscray are seriously good and Swans just keep finding talented new players to inject into their side.

Franklin sublime

And Franklin goes BANG!

Buddy is a freak. Great to watch

You can tell the swans are missing a few but their depth is exactly why they're consistently a top 2-3 team. 

Scintillating football from the Swans. Just wow. Franklin is still a star. He's great to watch when he's not playing the MFC.

Sam Reid 6 goals

Picken what a tackle

Jeez Alir Alir impressed me.. He just completely rag doll thr million dollar man in Boyd.

Holy chit!!! Picken and Bont?! The run for defence to attack was incredible... INCREDIBLE!! 

What a farce. 

Umpiring tonight has been bleedin’ awful.

Maggots love Footscray 

Lingy says no free.  Dogs are expert at milking frees.

What's the idea behind the rule? Stop rushing behinds, he had plenty of time and space to make another decision. 

BT is dead set the worst commentator of all time. Arrogant self important toss bag

Rubbish free to Picken. He stopped attacking, waved his arms around before it was punched through.
