    Excellent, confident with his marking and kicked straight.
    He and Naughton were right in sync today.

    That last Bruce goal was just great fun. And as much as there was some underwhelming things, they kept putting score on the board. That percentage boost will be invaluable.

    Biggest ever club win. I was at the previous record, 120 points in 1985 V Melbourne at the Whitten Oval. Lots to like about how ruthless we were today. Put them to the sword.

    There was some very good leading patterns by all 3 talls. Lots of options and space.

    The best bit about Bruce celebrating his tenth might've been Libba fighting half of Norf in the background while Bevo giggled himself silly in the box.

    Great Josh Bruce. What a difference it makes when you’re match fit. Players love him. Working well with Naughts.
    A great win, but geez some of our disposal left a lot to be desired. Need massive improvement. Was Macrae told to lower his eyes kicking into 50? He seemed to be kicking lower stab type kicks instead of his usual slow up and under 30 metre floaters.
    I will never see #16 the same!!

    They were really getting into tough guy Ziebell in the last quarter. Bailey Smith was right up in his grill, which is good to see.

    That's a bit unfair.

    Bailey Smith was fighting the other half.

    Considering we did that damage in basically 2 and a half quarters is shocking.

    So we saw a thrashing. A forward kicked 10 goals. And we got into a bit of biff at the end. Don’t change 2021 bulldogs

    You can see as soon as the ball leaves Bruce’s foot, Libba re-starts the fight. Classic Libba

    20 goals to 2 after the 13 min mark of the 2nd quarter. That's astonishing.

    Well that was a big win for sure. Had we kicked straight it would have been a 150 plus points win.

    It was really satisfying to see Josh Bruce play so convincingly. He has copped a lot of stick on a couple of FB Forums. He marked very strongly and was hard at it when the ball hit the ground too.

    Our midfield worked well to shark a lot of Goldy's hitouts in the 2nd half.

    I felt Treloar was very sure handling the ball. There were a lot of fumbles by our blokes that went unpunished.

    Easton Wood looked very rusty but got better as the game progressed.
    Caleb Daniel kept things under control down back ably supported by Keath and Duryea. Williams was both steady and, in one play, brilliant. Bailey Dale continues to impress and z
    JJ showed a bit of dash.

    It was a really good win as it should have been against a North outfit that are clearly under-manned and under-performing.

    It was the win we needed to have. Mission completed. Go Dogs!
