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. )

0.4 for the Dogs in the second half

Almost doubled their score from last week. 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.

The Doggies have regressed badly in the space of the last 20 months. It’s one of the worst falls from grace we’ve seen in years.

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

They were never the best team.

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.

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.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
