OFFICIAL | POST-GAME Rd 18 | Bulldogs vs Warriors | 3pm Saturday @ Accor

Was at the game, why the fk did we use 16 men even in ET?
you weren’t at training bro, how do you know what went on behind closed doors. Playing with 16 was to reward the hard trainers etc etc IMG_1191.jpeg
 
What a fucking win we should of put it away earlier just errors got us was edge of seat hard fought game dogs never give in.
This is inspiring stuff. It shows all that hard work has instill a new breed in the Dogs like the Dogs of old, the Dogs of War are coming back. We are showing character with these close wins when in the past we would have lost it or not been in that situation.

So we are not only winning but learning to grind games out which shows a lot of substance to our game. We want it more and its showing. I think the errors thing is still going to happen here and there as we are still geling. But we are showing despite those errors at times and being behind we can hang in and remain in the game and now have game winners in Burton, Kikau, Mahony and Critta.
 
Yeah our shape is so ugly, if you see the whole line, you can see why we have no attack.

And this one-out bullshit needs to stop ASAP. Even if they passed twice they would of opened them up.
They were focused on getting metres for a field goal. Warriors had all their defence in the middle and were vulnerable on the wings, but we kept running one out up the middle - playing to their strength.

A smart half would have been testing them on the edges, after they lost their wingers and fullback.
 
Playing Hayward at 7 would straighten our attack
Starting to agree with this. Sexton hasn’t been great the last few weeks, he is a rocks and diamonds player and there were too many rocks today. Thankfully Hutchison isn’t available, would love to see Hayward get a chance as he’s not impacting enough as a forward.
 
I hope CC and JT can come up with something, was never worried about defence, different story with the ball.
It’s simple mate, design some attack around our weapon Burton. Not even being a smartass, use the bloke and his strengths and we will score some points. He can go ten minutes without touching it besides a bomb it’s crazy
 
True, but all jokes aside we need to fix our attack ASAP. All we have is that one sweeping play to the right that didn't work all day.
I don't know if it was shown on the screen at the game, but CC did not look that pleased after the game, will be interesting what he says in the presser

Means we can bring in a bigger body too
 
I thought after the initial grind stopped first half, we showed some good shape. Tracey on the right had so much space yet critta and kiraz were like 10m off the play.
A few wayward passes, behind players, killed off great opportunities to score.

Our ball handling allowed the Warriors back into the game when we had the chance to put them away.
 
Anything man, Sexton is not the answer, especially today with his feet for hands.
I did not know Hutchinson was injured but agree with you, if you move Haywood to 7 who will replace him. We are running thin on troops!

I hope he is pissed off. Even he can't deny our lack of attack.

Yep, Preston will really help to put some starch back in the forwards. Hayward tries hard but he’s too small and his knees hit the deck as soon as he’s tackled so his ball playing is wasted.
 
Very lucky to get away with that one. Warriors showed so much guts. Our exectution in attack was atrocious. We should have put them away much earlier.

Thought the reffing was terrible again. He put his whistle away for most of the first half and all of golden point.
