    Thumbs up Nothing but bin!

    This takes some doing!

    Western Bulldogs veteran Liam Picken shared a video on Twitter on Friday of a few of the Dogs boys in some change rooms.

    Starting with Jack Macrae, they were all lined up ready to head the ball between each other and into a rubbish bin, without screwing it up or having it touch the ground.

    One after another, they nailed it, with Jake Stringer polishing it off, heading it to a Dogs mascot who appeared out of nowhere to ram it into the bin.

    Impressive


    Video on;

    So they do have skill of some variety. Wrong code though. I know it's just a bit of fun, but I'd rather see video of them working on the deficiencies that lead to us missing a finals berth.

    I think I'm getting old.

    This appears to be clearly in the players down-time.

    All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.

    Well if the players have had their exit interviews I would say everyone of those players is staying at the club.
    Maybe they should use their heads to pass the ball in the forward line 100% success rate doing it that way.

    Not sure if serious.
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

    Really? Truly?

    Why not just send them to the coal mines?

    I think I'm bitter about our non-involvement in finals. Every week of finals this year I'm going to watch the corresponding game from 2016 - and look forward to seeing video of preseason training 😀

    This is my plan as well, I got the box set sent down last week and will play each on every corresponding weekend.
    At least I will be more relaxed knowing the result.

    Of course mate. I was just taking the opportunity to make someone else feel bad to see if it mitigates any of my own pain at missing finals.

    The first ever time we watched the replay toward the end of the game I looked over at my son and said "this is more stressful than the first time around!"
