Seriously Brian Taylor, is he the best we can do? He is amazed that full back McKay hasn’t kicked a goal yet 🙄

Gus has gone to another level since the grand final.

What a shame tippingwudi didn’t get a fairy tale ending for the commentators 😂

Moniz Wakefield and Woewodin look the goods. Commentators won’t get a gig in the big time anytime soon.

Gus 20 marks was immense Backline are missing Levers intercept game Gee Bowser is a good decision maker Very happy for the Weed.

I just wish we would pick players in form rather than in hope

Wow, 9 games for 9 wins, two rising star nominations and a premiership! Gotta be some sort of record

Mitch Brown consistently puts his hand up and form wise looks like he is ahead of Weed and maybe even TMac. Brown and Fritsch are locks , so maybe give Mitch a game against his old side. Even though I’ve always liked Weed, the more times I get to see him, the more I realize he is just missing that bit of mongrel you need to succeed in this game.

Ins and outs will largely depend on the fitness of Hibbo and Lever and if there are any standouts out of todays Casey game. Bedford seems first cab off the rank for the smalls. Hunt most likely out

Youngsters were great , especially Bowey and Jacko with Kozzie always exciting. Might be time to give Bedford more of a regular game, as Hunt is just not grabbing his chance and turns the ball over too much. We miss Lever lots as we don’t have that intercept marker who reads the play as well as him. Trac is such a bull and the best player in the comp right now.

Don’t think either of these sides will make the 8.

Our system holds up, even with 5 premiership defenders out , and a very advantageous free kick count to the dogs. Petracca is becoming, if not already the best player in the game.

I’m sorry , but the bulldogs are a club of absolute sooks. Whinging over a bloody song, and then calling Morris a gutter journo for reporting an out??? Love beating this mob.

I just watched the reply of this game as it just happened to be on foxtel and those 50 metre penalties plus a lack of intensity from our guys were the main difference. one thing I noticed was how hard Kozzie and ANB work. They do alot of unrewarded running just to put pressure on the opposition to try and cause in turnovers . Their value to the team us much more than goals alone.

Kozzie worked really hard without reward and I suppose he will have those games as the opposing best small defender will match up on him. He didn’t get much clean possession last night but he is doing all the right things and it will come.

Viney will be better for the run and didn’t really get into the game tonight. Salem and May are super important to our whole set up. I probably would’ve preferred to see more of the likes of Chandler and Bedford than Hunt , Jordan or Baker and I think Chandler might be a sneaky chance for round one. Brayshaw back on his wing will also stop alot of opposition attacks

We only played a half and conceded 4 goals to free kicks. Carlton played out of their skins but credit to them. We learned a couple of valuable lessons too. Umpire dissent won’t be tolerated and we have to be switched on with full intensity from the opening bounce as we will be the hunted this year.

Fritter has ice in his veins

It is now a 50 Meter penalty for shaking your head.

Joel smith and Tomlinson might get plenty of games in that backline this year, and maybe in front of Petty and Hunt, or by resting Hibberd, or even ahead of Rivers. Shoes how good our depth is.

The great thing is I’m stressed anymore about footy and will we ever win one or not. Im ecstatic we’ve won one and can now watch footy with a sense of accomplishment and pride in the knowledge that we’ve reached the pinnacle. Anything from now on will be icing on the cake.
