How did people view Baker? He is the least of our problems but just looked like a VFL player for mine.

It ended up for me being a quiet trip home on the train and we Bulldog supporters were outnumbered by 4 to 1 where I was sitting and I get heading east isn't in the right direction for a lot of our supporter base.
Our fan base has a soft underbelly just like the current side.

Played a decent 3rd quarter but he is what he is, another teams reject clogging up a list spot. See Tim O'Brien, Mitch Hannan.

Struggled but like our entire team found it hard to find space, and if you weren't an inside mid last night then you were going to have a hard time seeing the ball in our side.

Yeah it is early and I got Biggs wrong after a few games but that's how I viewed it also.

I was on level 2A and quite a few Dogs fans in that area, but certainly felt like we were under-represented across the stadium GVG. Small crowd too, I suppose a lot of neutrals would’ve gone Thurs / Friday which may have reduced it too.

Ask any Melbourne Supporter and they were happy for him to get an opportunity elsewhere as long as it wasn't with them. Your assessment may be spot on. When you look at the exchange of wingmen - Hunter for Baker then i think I know who may have won that one.

You really are! I’ll be keen to hear your diagnosis on 2nd viewing.

Melbourne supporters were saying lucky they let Hannan go. I think he has played 1 decent game in 3 years

Round 1, perfect conditions. I was expecting a lot more dogs supporters. I was sitting in the top of the Olympic stand and there just seemed to be a very tame reaction to our 'inspirational moments' from the get go.
And the cheer squad seemed light on for members at the first bounce compared to previous visits to the ground.

Anyway long story short I’m out a robot vacuum.
I obviously don’t have anything too analytical to add but we simply have to bin this one for our prospects and summarily execute the Saints next week.
Similar story to mine. Didn't throw anything but read a good book instead.

Good grief GVG... i'd rather watch election night '92 when Kennett became premier. That was a long tortuous evening.

Like a school boy scared of the head mistress (Gawn).

Like Hannan, not sure why we picked him up.
