Long time lurker. Non frequent poster.
Roster wise Pay is not exactly working with the best cattle in the comp. I find some of his coaching decisions off and confusing (chris Smith is terrible) but when you look at 1-17 how many would walk into a rooster or Melbourne top 17 or even 25. DWZ, maybe Remis Smith and CHN and that's about it really. The rest are fringe players at any other team and given a few bounces of the ball and some better gaol kicking we would have 2-3 extra wins.
Dean pay may not be the long term solution but there are signs that there is potential within the squad, missing some experience and strike power.
This has been the toughest period as a dogs fan and it may be so for at least another year or so.
Looking forward, who exactly on the market is going to take us to that next level apart from maybe Jake and Tommy T?
We have been blessed and cursed in the past to have a SBW, Barba or Thurston in our ranks to end up walking away or make the wrong decision *She-Rex* and there does not seem to be any good mature guys e.g. Stagg, noddy, even back in the day Sticky, Bradley Clyde and the likes to nurture the next gen coming through just unfortunately we can't seem to get those any more. DWZ has the potential to be the best investment the club has made in years and players will hopefully see that as Belmore aint that bad to come play for..
Coach wise there is very little for us to think they could do better with this squad, Bellamy and Robinson are blessed and would probably be in the same position with the same squad..
If we can somehow find a good 3, 6 or 7 and 9 I feel we can push back into being the powerhouse club we know we can be.
Sorry if none of this makes sense, I'm pissed and just happy the team looks like it wants to play for each other in the last few weeks.

Also has any other club ever lost the amount of Talent Canterbury has in the last 15 years?

What a win.

Deano keeps getting the job done and improving this young team.

Despite the hole Dibb Coorey and co left him in.

How good is the new guard of Bulldogs in 2019. Feels like the good old days again.

So excited watching us play
In case you didn't know the comp started in March not August

Ask yourself 1 question are the players having a go . If your answer is yes pay hasn't lost the dressing room. Ability is another matter

Even the Pay diehards surely have to acknowledge how bad the attack looks. It's all about completing sets with one out footy. It's hard to watch and worse than Haslers last few seasons.

It's hardly champagne, razzle dazzle footy. We average 13 points a game which is alarming. We should all drink metho with attack like that.
Its not the same team as Hasler had and nowhere near as long together either

The only positive about pay is that he still has the players playing but other than that its a big question mark on what he can do.
