Melksham is playing on Johannisen who takes the Bulldogs kickouts and he's had 6 disposals.

We've kicked 8.6

Think about that for a second

Well said. The stats for Melksham are a lie today. He's done a fantastic job shutting down JJ off halfback.

One word always pops into my head when I see him play, and I don't know why.... "Frankston"

I'm loving Bugg based on last week. But I agree. Wouldn't put it beyond Goody to drop him based on some of this weeks antics. Gotta be careful with the me me me stuff. 

Totally disagree 

 

This week and last week has changed my mind about him. I would sooner drop Vince who I adore than Bugg at the moment. You would drop someone who plays with so much effort!!! Glad your not the coach. If he was a spud then fine big mouth gone but it would be like dropping Aker when he was being good (notvthat bugg is in that class yet).

Jeez DD calm down.

I didn't say I'd drop him. I said it's possible Goody might not look on his antics pre-game and during the game week. Take a look at last week's gameday thread. I went nuts for the guy. Get your facts straight.

Today is the "strongest" I've seen Melbourne for years, not backing down etc

That's why Buggs flop stood out so much.

The whole way he blindsided Wood then took a fall was really ordinary in my opinion.

You guys have got them on the ropes by playing good strong football and not taking any sh!t, no need for Buggs antics.

I for one don't mind oppo for a bit of banter  welcome!

Watts is a workhorse today. Been great.

Earlier in the year, and all of last season, this is exactly the kind of game Dogs would come back and win.

Still a long way to go, can't see us going unchallenged. Hope our boys can keep it up

It's a forum so am cool that I might have got intent wrong, somehow I reckon he's on a tight leash *Goodwin's, don't think it is totally unscripted

Yeah it'll be interesting won't it.

We actually don't know a lot about how Goody will view things like Bugg. Find out in an hour or two I guess.

Yep, we need to keep up the intensity and keep them out.

This Howie commentator, can't stand him. But that was pretty funny.

"Bugg marks in front of Johannisen, might tweet him a photo of the footy."

Pay that.

Dumb kick by Melksham.

Bugg

Bugg really needs to include goal kicking practice at the end of every training session

In such a brutal defensive game, have a guess who our two biggest tacklers are...

Salem 6

Garlett 8

Wowee.

Chunk Jones with hip... Not good.

Top 5 tonight.

Salem has been phenomenal.

Salem yes! Come on dees!

Jones hip flexor. Uh oh.

Have we ever been this hard at the footy?

 

Really amazing stuff.

Robertson on MMM says he might be ok. That guy is impressively unreliable though.

Kingy and big Browny talking us up on Fox. 

Jeffy - you are a star.
