Repeat of the first game. They have a draw and win comfortably enough.

Well on the plus side we've surely gotten the worst out of the way

Re: Melbourne V Western Bulldogs - 2021 Grand Final Thread
Alright, less than ideal start that's for sure.
Catch a breath, settle and off we go.
I actually reckon we're not that far off it.

Re: Melbourne V Western Bulldogs - 2021 Grand Final Thread
Can’t handle the pressure. Can’t tackle. Melb have come to play and we are deer in headlights.
Hate to say it but Melb get the next goal this could well be a blowout. They just look that good, that focused.
I will never see #16 the same!!

We've waited 2 weeks for that quarter. Worst possible start.
The curse is dead.

Re: Melbourne V Western Bulldogs - 2021 Grand Final Thread
Pathetic.
As big of a choke as you'll ever see.
Handballing over heads to nobody, blatant turnovers by foot under no pressure, dropped marks.....
Wow.

Re: Melbourne V Western Bulldogs - 2021 Grand Final Thread
Yeah this is like rd 11. Shit turnover from us. Disappointing to give it up so early.

Re: Melbourne V Western Bulldogs - 2021 Grand Final Thread
We started controlling the ball a bit more late in the qtr but the 2 diabolical errors by Williams handed them scoreboard pressure. We're still in the game but need to hunt them more around the middle, they are getting too many looks inside 50

No macaroon driving for you if this continues.

Re: Melbourne V Western Bulldogs - 2021 Grand Final Thread
That was a car crash of a 1st qtr… timid, fumbling, no structure. Long way to go, but we need some composure to come along quickly.

Re: Melbourne V Western Bulldogs - 2021 Grand Final Thread
Melbourne too good at the moment. Just need to find some composure. Look at pegging back the lead 2nd qtr. Need a lift from Bont.

Re: Melbourne V Western Bulldogs - 2021 Grand Final Thread
I’ll take that given how bad we were.
Strange that the ump didn’t call ‘mine’ as soon as Marcus hit the deck late on, surely that was a ball up.
Anyway, could’ve been 6 goals, regroup and go
