Had a read of their game day thread.
Enjoyed their shock and despair when when we went on the rampage in the 3rd.
They were daring to dream and Nek Minut .... It was over.
Poor fools.

I normally love basking in the schadenfreude of other supporters losing their minds at their team’s performance, but I think in this case I just want to enjoy the win and leave them in peace. Doesn’t feel right this time around.

I’m just going to post he one message that sums it all up for me

Quote

I dunno. I mean they were clearly better than us. But we didn’t put up a fight or any effort. We let them do what they wanted. But then apparently Geelong did too so maybe they’re simply too good. I dunno it feels like a decent team would just put a stop to the ease of their clearances. But it never happened.

Who is this Tex again. Oh I remember he is the guy that has been suspended from the game.

I just watched the 2nd quarter. The bulldogs are a team of fighters, but they really have a make do backline and only Naughton forward of the ball. Their midfield is their strength.

Their game plan reminds me of under 12’s, and that second quarter proved it. Wait for the best player to get forward of the ball, and then kick it to him. Bont is a star, but they ask a massive amount of him. If he’s not dominating they look a 5-8 team.

I admire their endeavour though. They are a pretty honest team in terms of effort.

[rpfc 27,534]

A few salty ones on there, and apparently the team singing after the game is a ‘slap in the face’ as they were singing the same song as the dogs?? 

Ah well. 

[hardtack 10,127]

I love how so many on Demonland whinged about the commentary being biased against the Dees, and the Dogs supporters were saying exactly the same, except they call it out as being biased against the Dogs.

I think their comments are pretty balanced overall other than a few posters getting very riled up because we played the same post game song they did after the Port game. They reckon it was disrespectful or something. They need to chill

Oh, what was the song? Can't two teams like the same song?

It was nice to read the positive comments of our win. Especially about Pettracca being the most worthy Norm Smith medalist ever and we are the best team of the season. Poor Tom English coped a fair bit of heat though.

No idea. First i heard of it was reading through their thread

[Wrecker46 2,673]

I love these threads but be humble guys we know what it feels like to be thumped in a grand final. 

We mercifully knew by quater time in both ours.

They thought they were going to win early in the third until we played the best half of football in grand final history.

We can afford graciousness to the Dogs - Bont’s classy speech. Saints too. 
Feel like reserving spite for GF drubbing of scumbag or interstate club

When you smash a team by 12 goals you can do what ever you like, they should be ashamed how their team gave up in the last quarter, it  was Carlton like.

The difference is they played it after beating port, and  partied like they won the Grand final, we waited until 11pm last night to party

I may have double-standards (at least I have some) in that I'd rip into Cats, Hawks, Pies & Bombers supporters. However would not want to ridicule/humiliate Bulldogs supporters.

And for clarification - Roger the Demon Dog was a pre-game omen, not post-game ridicule.

[buck_nekkid 5,508]

I always like reading the oppo take on the preview or post moretem.  However, I think this is not the time to gloat - we smashed these poor bastards into the dirt, they are in enough pain already.  We have been there for so long, I still feel shadows of their pain.  Time to NOT be like tigers supporters, but to follow the lead of the team and be better than that.  The Doggies did well all year, and were the second best team in it.  They clearly know that now.

[Willmoy1947 3,794]

Footscray had a chance, they didn't take it. On our whole play cycle this year, we had chances, and we took them.Why would you want it any other way. It was the ride of the season
