He was good todayComment

Re: To The Bye - 3 Big Weeks
Are we worried he'd lack fitness/ not be up to standard or are we trying to protect his knee by keeping him in the VFL? Because I doubt it'll make much difference to the knee what level he plays at.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]Comment

But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.Comment

Re: To The Bye - 3 Big Weeks
Steven's was rusty when he was brought in after injury. I would bring him back through VFL. I know many will disagree however Jong might be worth a go - thought he was good today (although I missed last quarter). Webb was pretty good too -perhaps he get's the nod. Smith was mighty and knowing how brave MC is they might just give him a go.
Do any woofers know how bad Adam's injury is? Though Zaine looked very good in VFL today.
I think we can beat Cats at Etihad and make it 3 out of 3. Go Dogs!!Josie :)
Our day will come
And we'll have everything.
We'll share the joy
Just like '54 again.Comment

Re: To The Bye - 3 Big Weeks
Dahlhaus is a massive loss, but this team is doing something that no other team for a long time has.
They are finding a way.
Every time someone goes down injured, someone else steps up.
When Bob and JJ went down, we did just fine.
When Boyd went down, Redpath came in and he's been doing just beautifully.
There's depth in our list that's been non existant for years.
Yes, Dahlhaus is a massive part of our setup, but we'll manage.
Grind out a win against the Cats and we go to the bye full of confidence and with a week to get some players cherry ripe.Comment

Re: To The Bye - 3 Big Weeks
I was happy with 9 and 4, but ecstatic if we're 10 and 3.
We need some soldiers back ( just joking tragic, I agree with you)
Not getting ahead of ourselves but we have an easier run after the bye .
Probably two games we'll go in underdogs ( Geelong sydney)Comment

Re: To The Bye - 3 Big Weeks
West Coast - check
Port in Adelaide - check

If we win one of the next two games (Geelong, Sydney) we should finish top 4.They've done studies you know, 60% of the time, it works every time!

Re: To The Bye - 3 Big Weeks
The thing i like the most about where we are at is we have a LOT of improvement, both in terms of manpower (Wood, JJ, Stevens, Dahl) to come back in, who will be ready for a real tilt come the latter part of the year.
This combined with some players who are clearly down on form like Stringer (fair last quarter though)
With the exception of the Hawks game we have really ground out some wins, they haven't been pretty but have set such a core expectation that we're up for it.
All while we play some really super young kids, Dunkley and Williams, Mclean etc
Id like us to set the benchmark at a prelim this year, but when there guys hit 25-28 holy crap the sky is the limit. Imagine the Bont when he has 100games under his belt!Comment

Re: To The Bye - 3 Big Weeks
After Geelong's win over Norf last evening, if we were to come out and beat the Cats next week, we'd start to be taken more seriously for this year's premiership by the wider footy community.
At present, I get the feeling non Bulldog's people would 'like' us to do well/win, versus believing we can actually do it this year.There is no sadder sight than a young pessimist.
