Should We Take the 2?

[AlzzBulldog]

Hypothetical first half.. Regardless of scoreline.. if we get a penalty in their half should the team take the 2 points to get off the duck egg?

We’d have to get a penalty first

 

[utility half]

I'd go further than that. First time we get within cooee of the melbourne goalposts, field goal is on.

I think taking the 2 would feel even more humiliating.

The only way I could possibly justify it would in the highly unlikely circumstance of the scoreline being either nil all or 0-2 in the dying minutes of the first half. Could justify us potting a field goal if nil all at the same time also.

Better yet, why don't we just take field goal pot shots before the 40m line....

That’s way Too hard

 

[Stinger]

Yep. Take the 2 pt field goal and let’s the monkey off our back.

 

[DOGSOFWAR2013]

Field goal.
Penalty goal.

Or just "winning" the penalty count....

Long time between drinks from 2004.

 

[Dogna88]

We need to go for a field goal at ANY chance we get.

Not. Even. Joking.

Least our useless duds will be in a trivia question that way!

 

[berries1935]

yes yes yes yes yes

 

[berries1935]

Even a field goal, might lighten the mood and loosen them up a little

 

[Moedogg]

Stuff it! Just toss someone like Katoa in the air and over the storms defensive line once we enter their 10m....

Me. Either. Points. On. The. Board.
Humiliating. But. Avoids. Another. Duck.

 

[ASSASSIN]

IF we get a penalty

 

[wendog33]

I think it would be more embarassing taking the 2 then getting 0 if it was say 20 points to the other team at the time. It's conceeding we have no idea, no hope and giving up trying is ok. So a NO for me.

Misplaced pride GD

Field goal/penalty kick = zero to Bulldogs hero.

Who's it gonna be to save us the dreaded 4th time held to zilch

 

[silva]

Let’s not get ahead of ourselves.. I’d be chasing the 1

 

[TwinTurbo]

I would take the 2, then look at the nearest camera and mouth "Fark You insert name of favourite journalist "

Go Dogs

 

[Scoooby]

Take the 2 or the 1 lol.. that’s what it’s come too.!!

 

[bulldog]

We'd probably miss anyway, not kick it dead and concede a 110m try

We’d have to get a penalty first

Wheres Soward the milkman when u need him..
