Western Bulldogs V Essendon - 1st Elimination Final 2021

[Mantis]

Hannan is awful, he seriously can't play moving forward

I’m not sure Vanders is offering anything either… our forwardline is totally dysfunctional.

[Mofra]

Roarke Smith is becoming an important player for us

He's had some good moments the last two weeks.
Dare I say it - he's a 3rd quarter specialist.

[Grantysghost]

First goal of the last. It's all I ask.

Wasn't much in the Gardner incident he just held his ground.
Good to see some passion.

[whythelongface]

Great quarter by the lads.

Weightman 4 v Essendon 4. Love it.

[comrade]

No one can convince me that Marra wouldn’t offer more than either VDM or Hannan.

[bornadog]

I thought he had done some good things. Quite like his game today

He is very sloppy and fumbly, and it is not just the conditions

[G-Mo77]

So running into someone is a free?

Shhh. I think we got a couple of good ones that resulted in goals. Think of that as an evener.

[GVGjr]

Great effort by our boys, need to keep it up and hopefully get a couple of goals early.

[Grantysghost]

No one can convince me that Marra wouldn’t offer more than either VDM or Hannan.

Remember the turnover game!

Hannan is awful, he seriously can't play moving forward

He fumbles, and needed to kick that goal from set shot. Frustrating to watch. I can see why Melbourne let him go.

How was that deck from Merret not a free to Young for high contact ? Its a reportable incident, and commentators say its part and parcel of footy.

Also, they should report the punches to the head that Young received from Stringer in the middle of the ground. Just pathetic.


Really enjoying the hard fought contest the team is showing. Just need to get front position and get to the ball early and push forward.

[josie]

Schache, Schache, Schache. So happy for you big fella.

Weightman, Weightman, Weightman. He is a serial pest and he is all OURS. Yay.

Go Dogs. Let’s bury them in this last quarter. And no injuries please footy gods.

[chef]

Umpires have been kind too us, keep it coming.

[Mofra]

Beyond a few tackles, has he done anything other than fumble everything?

Our second goal?
That dropped mark was difficult because there were two players in front of him shielding the drop of the ball.

I wish VDM would get into the game more. Has the tools and is running hard and this is the day that he should be taking advantage of.

Dunkley lifted that quarter. I think we just played a littel smarter, wet weather football rather than Essendon at times trying to control the ball. Possession football is a dry weather game

[Bulldog4life]

Can’t even win the ball with an out number.

We’re cooked it seems.

No no no no no
