GAMEDAY: Grand Final vs Western Bulldogs

Featured Replies

There is few players who need have a good look at themselves .Looking at you tom,jack and i doubt if may is fit

 

Dogs didn't make it to the grand final by accident. Was always going to be a battle. May not right it seems, and that in itself is enough to swing it their way. But a few unsighted: Langdon not being Langdon is surprising, but Tom Mac might as well not be out there (except he takes their second defender, which isn't saying much.)

Not sure here - they have not just the talent, but the experience.

Terrified, the one thing I felt I could trust all year is falling down. How many scores from entries did the Dogs get? 

Not executing, for some reason the jitters came in that quarter. The one thing I take out of it is it happened early. I really hope that is the Bulldogs best shot fired. I hope our fitness takes over, I hope we get more clean footy in the 50 and kick more goals.

 

Umps clearly told to make it a close game. Just disgraceful.

Pressure is off, f50 connection and i50 pressure is off.. contested possessions off. Lots of bad stats taking shape. 
 

Only positive thing is that our i50 count is healthy. But we don’t have good structure and the Doggies murdering us in the rebound transition.


Dogs could not have had a better quarter, remain calm.

Just can't see us winning. Never could. This Dogs team at their absolute best was always better than our best. We were just better for longer throughout the season. They are a super, super team. 

[censored].

Bont for the Norm Smith at this rate.

This feels like a repeat of round 19, not round 11.

Not looking good right now.

That’s true. I don’t think they can replicate this.


We need someone tall to go To BONT when he goes forward... Viney isnt the right match

The. Commentators are always against us.

Viney killed the momentum with that kick into the forward line that quarter, why the hell did he not get in front of bont to stop his run.

thought langdon was ok


Dees not coping with the pressure while dogs are 

Bont was always the one to tag. So completely obvious from all our previous meetings. 

Reset.  Get the mongrel back.. we got this.

Sums it up

Must stop Daniel behind the ball, need to man up forward side of ruck contest 

It really is up to Oliver, Viney and Tracc they must get back control of the stoppages. Hopefully May settles down, really struggling tonight.

How do we stop it. My fear is they now know their pressure game beats ours, because their skills are better. More contributors needed. 

What exactly is Ch7 doing right now?

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
