We played one game this season where our total physical output was 15% more than any other game.  Can anyone guess which game it was? Source is Burgo's podcasts.

 

I would guess Prelim vs Geelong but only a guess.

 

Such a fantastic podcast. In disappointment terms, Burgo's departure ranks a close second to Jurrah and ahead of Jako for me. I'm not sure that everyone really appreciates what we've lost - one of those blokes bagged us a flag. And sports science isn't going to go away anytime soon. To stay ahead, our club needs to recruit the best in the business from the worldwide pool. 

Gone for vs rich game , was a wet night , required extra effort

What is "physical output" a measure of?

You would need to ask Burgo.  I would assume they measure total energy for the game for every player using the GPS and efforts etc but don’t really know.

Does anyone have a calorific indicator?🤣

Felt like we outnumbered the Tigers in that game and had an extra couple of players on the ground so I'll go with that one

 

In multiple choice, always pick C.

Yes they do https://support.catapultsports.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000648316-Volume-Metrics

This looks like the super duper version. https://support.catapultsports.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001343976-What-is-Metabolic-Power-

Burgo has a PhD so he worked it all out.

Salem and May’s bone crunching hits in the first were pretty big. And they definitely made a point of roughing up MaCrae in the first. 

I'm going with the after party. Anyone carrying Max around is working harder than my iPad after midnight.

For those interested, the podcast where Burgo spoke about our output was this one https://brukieandburgo.podbean.com/e/series-2-episode-2-matthew-innes/

Matthew Innes is head of high performance at the Bulldogs, and it was not the most interesting podcast.  Innes spoke about the finals and the travel and quarantine the dogs dealt with etc.  Burgo slipped in the conversation that Round 20 against Gold Coast, despite spending the entire previous day sitting on a plane etc, then having the game scheduled early the following day the MFC players performance was off the charts and 15% higher than any other game this year. It was also the week after the wet slog against the dogs.

You have to feel sorry for gold coast considering our performance after that game.

I said before that the GC game was a watershed game for us. We played our best footy for the season after that.

Fascinating that they could do that under the circumstances of the previous 24 hours and play that way WITHOUT a crowd 

It really turns every piece of preparation upside down!!

  • 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.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • 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.

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
