Cloke, Redpath may as well help out there which I thought would happen. I know Roughy probably needs a week or two but Campbell IMO should be playing.
Either way ruck or not we're getting murdered.

No point playing Cloke and Redpath if you refuse to kick the footy. When the pressure is up like that you must kick the footy and play territory.

Webb out of his depth, Cloke and Redpath 6 touches between them, Bont needs to lift as does Picken, Hunter, and Suckling.
That quarter was just as bad as the 4th against Freo.

Re: Game Day Round 9, 2017 - Geelong V Western Bulldogs
Well that was just a really unBulldog qtr of footy. Out pressured, and rattled.
I can't think of a player beyond Wood and Wallis who showed the required level of intent and desire that quarter.
Geelong is the last place, apart from Perth where you want to give the home team such a confidece boosting 2nd qtr too.
I can only hope the Cats fatigue from here, because wven at our best its going to be tough from here.
Bevo and co have a lot of work to do.

Re: Game Day Round 9, 2017 - Geelong V Western Bulldogs
Pathetic. I've never seen such a capitulation from a good side, we crumbled like a cookie and it was disgusting.
Dumb footy, poor skills, rinse and repeat v Geelong and I'm fed up.

Not sure why we have Hunter at HB, like a rabbit in the head lights.
Cordy should be playing.. needed against Taylor.

After our first quarter if i was Bevo I'd be so concerned we came out and dished that up.

Harry Taylor loves playing us. I'm sure he'll let us know about it too.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

Big mistake leaving Cordy out.
At this rate Hunter back to VFL

Re: Game Day Round 9, 2017 - Geelong V Western Bulldogs
Geez hunter would have to be close to chopping block....we look sooooo slow!!!! Too many plodding players who look like they run on treadmills....it gripes so much that we don't tackle with grabbing an arm and so many times tackle around the waist. Got a feeling they have too much goal kicking ass to defeat them tonight...unfortunately....we are playing them into some form.
I will never see #16 the same!!
