    The Moment, rnd 2, 2021: Western Bulldogs vs West Coast Eagles

    The moment, the best, most courageous moment that caught your eye in today's game against West Coast. Was it the moment that told you 'we've got this' or 'we lost this one right here'? Or was it the moment that you went 'wow....that is crazy courage.

    Bailey Williams , three eagles forwards, two minutes to go. Big week for the Williams family. His grandfather would have loved that match.

      Totally agree. He has really become very reliable and cool under pressure.

          I agree with T&T's choice.
          Another candidate is the whole play that saw Naughton put us in front. Scrimmage in the middle, it almost looked at if the ball would bobble out to the West Coast guys on the outside, but Libba was there and he somehow managed to will himself to get control of the possession and scunge a little kick out that ended up with Treloar getting out and then giving it to Macrae who then lowered his eyes and hit Naughton on the lead.

            Ditto
            BB.

            Looking forward - Naughton, Darcy and JUH. It will be the envy of everyone.

              I say this was it and I was a bit concerned that Bruce didn't go hard enough like he was happy for it to bounce out but thankfully it didn't and he managed to get it down to the Bont.

                  Libba somehow getting back on his feet and ripping the ball away from a nest of Eagles players to win that clearance right at the end. How did he do that?
                  They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                    Perfect moment for him in his 150th too. He missed the 'milestone' goal early and didn't quite connect with some assists but that right there is the perfect highlight to sum up what he brings to this team

                      I agree with Williams, though as an alternative the handball intercept by McNeil where rather than flicking off the ball which would have been the easy thing to do he got on his bike, held onto the footy and ran at the defence. This created uncertainty for the defenders and he timed his handball to Vandermeer perfectly.

                      He has a long way to go but that's what he needs to be doing when he gets his chances.

                        Duryea spoil on west coasts second last foray into their 50. He doesn’t throw himself in that pack they would have marked it no question.

                          Williams 1 v 3, that's going to be highlight material for the rest of his career.

                            Williams outstanding, though wouldn’t have had the opportunity to be as important as it was without the McNeil Steal

                              The Mooroopna boy running in and goaling, easily my favourite player.
