Re: WB Game Day V North Melbourne R3 2021
I made the call to go away for the weekend, thinking this would be a typical Dogs v North slog which we ended up winning by 4 or 5 goals. Watching the end of the match on TV, gee I wished I was there. Jumped out of my seat at the bar when Bruce took the mark for his 10th.
From what I saw, Treloar was terrific and the triple Bailey's all important. It's tough to pick clear best/worst in a 120 point win.
I also really enjoyed Lachie McNeill's snap from 40. Bit by bit he is showing us what he is capable of. I would still be happy for him to have a rest and give Cav/West an opportunity, but I can see why bevo is giving him his chance.

Yeah, McNeil needs to go out (sorry Grantysghost) but I'm really liking what he's got to work with. I think he has a bright future.

Re: WB Game Day V North Melbourne R3 2021
Great win, ruthless 4 quarter effort when it could’ve not been.
Contributors across the board.
Hunter not quite in rhythm with his role.
Scott did some good things but also a bit VFL-paced at times.
McNeil has some tools and will develop into a good player, but a little green and rushed.
Keath been great defensively but needs to take a simple first option. Didn’t hurt us today too much.
How good is Naughton at ground level! So fast.
Well done. Onto next week.

Yes he did! He took out Gardner.

So this is pretty satisfying.
Bruce kicks his tenth - Happy Days not sure how to feel.
Nah I love Bruce. He’s been a really frustrating player to watch and definitely should have been dropped last year, but he seems like a cool guy and he’s got the kind of charisma to him that makes him really easy to get behind.

Is that hurting us though?
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

Well we now have the problem of deciding on which under performing tall defender we are going to pick to replace him.

Yeah well that's kinda the position we've been in the past 2 years to be honest so not entirely sure it's a problem.

Re: WB Game Day V North Melbourne R3 2021
Just sat through both AFL 360 and On The Couch hoping to bathe in some Bulldogs bathwater and lo and behold, we got barely a mention. Sydney is well and truly the flavour of the month.
Not sure how you can fly under the radar after a 21 goal win, but let's just keep racking them up.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

My Auntie's hit up the family WhatsApp group with the same comments...........she's actually complained to Fox!
