POSTGAME : Rd 19 vs Western Bulldogs
Really hard to get a read on this one, the easy thing to do is blow up but that seems like a simple option. We were OK, even reasonable in patches but we just couldn't sustain it long enough. The way the Dogs were slingshotting it from the back meant they were always a chance to get looks at goal and score. We knew this. They also worked their ground ball gane to a treat but the kicker may have been that they weren't expecting to get such service out of JUH. Sensational game from the lad. The concerns were there when it became really apparent that we could only score from centre clearance, I can remember very few times when we transitioned it successfully from the back and scored. I can also not remember many scores from Forward 50 turnover either and that 0 tackles inside 50 stat just doesn't help. The game was just not on our terms and although we rolled with it and managed to keep the scoreboard ticking over I'd say shoot-outs won't do it for us. That second half was nerve wracking and I haven't felt that nervous about a game for quite a while. I can't remember a game where I looked up at the clock as much as I did in that last. I honestly felt like we needed to kick 4 goals to have a chance, we didn't. It happens but it is still a test failed for me. I don't want to make any knee jerk statements like top 4 being over or top 2 being over but gee wiz look at our last 6 weeks of footy. Apart from a brilliant win over Brisbane there's a couple of patchy wins over Adelaide and Port and a bunch of Ls. I don't actually know what to say about it right now and that's neither a good or bad thing. I think we definitely needed to win tonight but we do have a massive chance next week against Freo where we simply must take a scalp. We don't have many losses left to give and I would have preferred to save them for later but we'll have to do it the hard way. Holding fire for now. Not doom and gloom but gee these problems are not easily fixable. We are a very good side but I think we need to stop pretending that we are that much better than the rest and that we have some kind of divine right to winning this flag. The other teams are pretty good too.

Absolutely barnstorming quarter from the Dogs, they were all over us. Yet for all their dominance they only managed 3 goals, that's a win for us.
