WB Game Day V Sydney Swans R17 2021

[Testekill]

What was Bont doing there? If you're going to put it into the corridor then you need to hit those passes.

[Bumper Bulldogs]

Buddy kicks this we are done. How did smith just not play on

[comrade]

Baz had an easy handball to Williams running past, turned his back. Absolute space cadet.

[merantau]

I seldom criticise players but JJ had the chance to kick a really vital goal and missed EVERYTHING

[bulldogsthru&thru]

Bruce has been plain sh*t. I know a lot have, but he’s got to stand up in Naughtons absence.

[whythelongface]

Our forward defensive pressure is non existent. Too easy for them to transition from defence to attack

[bulldogsthru&thru]

What are we doing? We’ve stopped dead in our tracks. Some really concerning signs.

[merantau]

We should be 8 goals down. Keath has done a very good job on Franklin

[bulldogtragic]

Lucky we’ve been banking percentage.

[The Adelaide Connection]

It’s not pretty, but you’d rather it now than finals. It’s a huge wake up call.

[G-Mo77]

Looked pretty ordinary from the start today. Swans just better today while we looked unwilling to match their intent. Some of those inexcusable misses in front of goals may have helped but I'm clutching at straws.

[DOG GOD]

On this effort, GC up there won’t be easy next week either.

[merantau]

Well, that was a very poor performance - our worst, by far, this year. It was an eight goal loss in reality. Forward pressure? Non existent. If not for Bont, Libba, Macrae, Duryea, Keath, Dale, Daniel and a couple of others and their bad kicking we would have been thrashed by 10 goals.

I don't think Tim English will ever make it as a first ruck. Today was his big chance against a bloke he outweighs and is taller than. He failed the test badly. JUH had chances but failed to take them - but he wasn't alone by a long shot. But don't worry - he will be a player.

I hope the coaches can throw some light on how come we played so poorly. It's a mystery to me.

[bulldogsthru&thru]

It was a very tired effort today. Not sure if we’ve spent all our tickets early or if the injuries have just taken its toll. We’ll see over the next few weeks, but after Brisbane’s loss last night, we’ve really blown our shot at taking top spot. I think we need to forget top spot now and hope we don’t fall out of the top 4. Based on the last two weeks, we’ll end up out of the 4. Won’t beat dees, port or bombers with that effort. Let’s see how we respond next week.

[macca]

Thats what worries me about this sort of loss.

We were 150% up at North at one stage last week, and now dropped this game and now are at 142%. A real danger of dropping out of the 4 , with Brisbane and Geelong breathing down our backs.

Brisbane %129
Geelong %124

its only one bad loss and big win by these 2 and we could be out of the 4
