Poor 5th tackle options. They were shocking at best!

sherwin was sh!t and judging by this year, where he never reached any peak, hes past it. We need new blood.

Everyone will e calling for Folkes' head, but who's going to take us to this 'new' style of football?

And for the record - Phil Gould is a ****. How can a former coach of the dogs, a premiership winning coach at that, be so negative towards the dogs? Clearly the Roosters dollars are where his loyalties lie

I wont be.
Folkes isnt the one out there kicking sh!t kicks, dropping the ball.
The players need to shut the **** up during the week, week after week this year they have talked themselfs up, I can't remember 1 round that has gone by (besides the bye) where we havent talked our chances up, its crazy.

No speed in the play the ball. No speed in the ruck defence. No speed on the wings. Too big and slow in the forwards. Too small and slow in the backs. No fifth tackle options. No flair in the halves.

Otherwise, a pretty good team.

Folkes is supposed to set the STRATEGY. The players job is to implement the strategy.
The players unfortunately DON'T look like they know what the hell the strategy is.
Was there any pattern in our play this year?
Without SBW & Patten it would have been an even more frightening year than it was.

For the record, these are Gould's exact words:

"I tell you what the last month shows: it shows that the Bulldogs' style of football is now out of date, well and truly. It's no use just running and tackliong hard and talking big and trying to intimidate. You've gotta have skill and flair and a plan to your football. You've got to have a smart dummy half, clever halves, speed out wide, constructive kicking game. All these things I've said, you go through the Bulldog lineup, they haven't got it. And they've been beaten by sides that do have it. For all their tenacity and experience and intimadatory tactics...it's meant nothing. They've been beaten by younger, skilful, and faster players"

Does anyone else notice how much more intense other teams are getting off their line in defence against the dogs, whereas we just seem to wander up and let them come to us?

he's paid to give analysis of the game, not suck up to his former employers

Boo ****ing hoo, ever since Gould left the panthers he has been a ******.

Out of interest, how come so many supporters of other teams are on a dogs forum? Not saying it's bad, just seems weird lol

Gould is correct 100% - he is very critical of any team that puts in a bad performance, not just the dogs.
