OFFICIAL | POST-GAME Round 9 | Post game | Bulldogs vs Tigers

Ordinary game all around. We were woeful in the first half, flat as a tack after the bye. Not significantly better in the second but enough to get the job done. Kikau probably the difference. Presto no start but save him for the Panthers. Need to be a LOT better on Friday.
 
You know what ??? That was a shit game, but we are now in the top 8 officially and no fucker can take that away from us… and we did it out of want when we came out in the second half. ENJOY IT ladies and Gents , it’s a great day!!!!
Yeah our second half was good, much better, got into our defense groove and the Tiges couldn't handle it.
 
Was never concerned. Tigers have been worrying some good teams, so I wasn't expecting us to blow them off the park, but can't put in 80 minutes. We came out slow after the Bye but part of CC's strategy is for us to win on our fitness, continuing to smother attack at the back end of games when oppositions are gassed. Scored 16 unanswered points in the second half. Hoping Tracey is back next week but Taffe did alright.

It's actually nice to be able to call it an ugly win, because a win like that would have been our best in years gone by lol
 
To be fair without the captain challenges they would have got rorted hard.

They can hold their heads up high, they played well enough to keep the score respectable.
Without the captain’s challenges so would we.
 
I was at work why didnt Preston play
 
That’s a good result.
against a motivated opposition, a slow start, wet, off the bye, without Tracey?

Im loving our defense.
‘04 dogs, line speed. Every kicker under pressure. Committed inside pressure. They never really look stressed.
Cirro has obviously stressed the effort areas.
 
Tigers were extremely desperate, they threw their game plan out the window and pushed a lot of offloads in the opening 20mins.
 
Maybe we’ve turned a corner? It feels so long. We’re coming out of the wilderness finally
