    Cody and Bruce were very poor and with Naughton missing as well we were fortunate to have Marra finish with 3 goals plus improved games from Garcia and Johannisen.
    The Bont who was BOG, makes a huge difference going forward.

    This is why Bevo is one of the best.

    ‘Protect the pack’: Dogs reveal how ‘Cape buffalo’ sign sparked stunning win

    The Western Bulldogs have lifted the lid (albeit slightly) on their goal and post-game celebrations, which played a role in the side’s scintillating start against St Kilda on Friday night at Marvel Stadium.

    Multiple Dogs players were seen making a horn gesture on their forehead after kicking goals, of which there were plenty in the opening three quarters before a late Saints fightback saw the final margin 28 points.

    Speaking post-game, halfback gun Ed Richards said the meaning behind it was related to the Cape buffalo, which help protect each other in their herd.

    “Our theme for the week, we spoke about the buffalo,” Richards told foxfooty.com.au post-game.

    “Just how they sort of protect the pack and that we were going to go out there and protect each other at all costs.

    “That was something we were poor with against Sydney so it was the focus this week against the Saints.”

    Richards added the theme was led by coach Luke Beveridge along with the side’s leaders.

    Asked post-game about the theme, however, Beveridge was tight-lipped.

    “We never normally let you in on the themes, but we had a little bit of a Cape buffalo theme tonight, that’s all I’ll say.”

    Still, it’s fair to say the message didn’t cut through for at least some of the players.

    Bailey Dale was one of them, who was asked about the celebration post-game.

    “Honestly, I have no idea, Bevo comes up with that many different themes,” he told Fox Footy.

    “He comes up with a new one every week and there’s a couple that some of the boys don’t have any idea about but we run with it anyway.

    “He’s very creative. Not the Chicago Bulls, I don’t know just something in the wild.

    “I didn’t even really get it but we went with it anyway.”

    There's lies, damn lies, and statistics right!

    I get the reference Bevo is making to the playing group as the Cape Buffalo really do defend each other.
    The herd stick together and are a formidable team which is a great theme for the players.

    Surely Bailey Dale got it. Maybe not.

    Obviously doesn't watch a lot of African wildlife shows. I've seen some shows of those bull Buffalo's standing up to Elephants.
    A formidable opponent and Bevo is onto to something there.

    I have seen them stand up to big cats but I can't say elephants. Be interesting to see. Will have to google.

    Not sure if Bailey Dale is just being coy with the media and doesn’t want to make Bevo angry by spilling the beans on his private themes or he’s actually a bit of an air head. Either way, god damn he’s lethal on the run. One of my absolute favourite things about this Dogs team is when he gets the ball anywhere within 60m of goal, basically put it in the book.
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

    Could be comrade. Put it this way I'd rather have him on our team than partnering him in a game of scrabble.

    I watched that interview and he came across as quite well spoken and cluey. Hadn't heard much from him previously. Wouldn't be surprised if he was playing a straight bat to protect the inner culture (which seems silly until you recall Melbourne's pure antagonistic plagiarism of the Freed From Desire post-game rave).

    We also know Bevo really hates anything internal getting out into the open

    I would not be surprised at all if the Demons pull out the horns this week.
