Have you seen a more gutless effort? Scared to attack when you’re 15 points down against a mediocre Collingwood. 

Weak as. 

During a week where they've been talking about the best 1-2 punch in the AFL, the question has to be asked:

Is there a worse 1-2 punch at the minute than Tom Boyd and Josh Schache?  Tom Hawkins and Stewart Crameri might give them a run for their money, but these two are just giant spuds.

Good game from Lynden Dunn tonight, attacking the ball and doing things he wasn’t doing in his final season with us.

I thought Schache showed just as much as Boyd ever has. Which is not much. (Excluding the worlds greatest ever finals campaign that he’ll dine out on forever. )

I’d love to know what’s going on behind the scenes in Footscray.

I was at this game tonight (builders’ night out!) and thought both teams looked ordinary. There was very little pressure, except in the 3Q when the Pies won the game. Collingwood do have some genuine talent, but I think the relentless pressure we bring, when we’re on, will account for them. Not sure what has happened with the Doggies - they were atrocious.

Watched Sidebum tonight closely, has slowed down, but a very crafty footballer. D"wenty was cool, but has this strange habit of wanting to turn when he gets the ball.Lumberjack might go for a couple at least one anyway, but too nice to be playing for wobbles.

If we can't beat the Doggies next week, something is wrong. They were absolutely awful. Someone mentioned it above, but they did not take the game on at all, even when down with a 10 minutes remaining. If they play that rubbish, we will eat the alive.

Collingwood didn't impress me too much either tbh, but clearly a better side than the Doggies atm.

Bulldogs player development is appalling.

Meanwhile ours is now looking world class.

Brendan McCartney anyone?

They've also made some strangle trade decisions in the past couple of years with Cloke, Crozier and Trengove to name a few. The jury is still very much out with Schache.

Tom Boyd has won them a flag so all in all he was worth it but he's lost all interest now.

Collingwood win the game by following one of its fundamentals after half time. They played in front and won the ball more often than not. It looked to me as if the Bulldogs were not scared to take the game on but didn't really have the will. The focus will definitely be on them next week as it was on Essendon after it lost to Carlton. Just another challenge that we will have to meet next week but there's another game to be won first.

Hopefully the media might settle down a bit on the De Goey hype after 15 meaningless possessions.

Ling was still even banging on about how the game changed when he went into the midfield..

Talk of up to a Million  dollars for a repeat offender off the field and an overweight injury prone inconsistent player on the field.

If he didn’t play for Collingwood it would be 500k - 600k max.

The kid can play but he ain’t no Dusty or Danger yet

Exemplifies why the Lions were only too happy for Schache to head home to his mum.  I bet she tucked him in last night with a “there, there sweetie. Don’t cry. Those big boys are just too mean!”

To me, he has “I will stuff up again” written all over him. And he is a massive bath water consumer.

The Bulldogs won a flag on the back of four amazing games.

They were never the best team.

In fairness they also had to play well enough to squeeze into the 8 first (which we haven’t done forever and a day)  

But yes, a manic  finals campaign and Murphy aside a good injury run.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
