May look bad but there are positives

[MR SS]

Ok we have lost the past 3 weeks and our performances have been bad. Last week was one that got away. Stupid refs killed the game. Losing 3 in a row and we still find us 1 win away from the top four. Not to bad. I believe this week makes or breaks our season. Must win. Hopefully morris and tolman are back.

 

[BankstownBulldog]

Yep, we must win our remaining 5 games to build nicely into the finals and give ourselves a real shot with a top 4 finish.

I'm tipping we can do it too!

Our performances have been bad for about 8 weeks or more. We haven't been convincing in any of our victories either.

Ball control will help - but that comes with confidence. I don't see us talking to each other, and planning moves when we have the ball in our opponent's half.

The attack relies on individuals instead of a team effort. How many breaks go unsupported?

We've been unconvincing for a while. I know there have been injuries, SOO etc, but with our forward pack, winning SOO halves and the alleged messiah as coach, the team should be nestled in the top 4, not fighting for a spot in the 8 (which, if you look at the ladder, we are not certainties for the finals yet).

But I keep the faith as we all try to.

The newspapers have stopped blowing smoke up our players asses & their heads have started to deflate. The players would have also noticed that many of the Bulldog fans were leaving the stands half way through the second half which would have been embarrassing for them. From NSW heroes to playing crap & loosing games against Tigers / Cowboys / Panthers all in a few weeks. They must be embarrassed.

Now its time to get a reality check, get out of this slump, take each week at a time & put in decent performances before the season slips away. The results will follow.

In 2012, Melbourne lost 5 in a row between rounds 16 - 21 and the rest is history - just saying

No we're the mighty Bulldogs And whilst we don't have superstars in key positions like they do, we have beaten all the favourites for the title this year

They were awesome and convincing in their victory over Manly..I rate that the best win by any team this year..the Dogs played perfect football..I just wish they could find that intensity every week..or even half of it!

Not all is lost, we have it in us to beat the top teams but drop the intensity against sides like Parra, Tigers and Panthers.
We are back under the radar and need to try and launch another ambush, bring back the clinical robots.
