    Apparently the Seagulls crapped on quite a few people yesterday.
    Open roof is definitely crappy
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

      My son came back from the 3 quarter time break and his seat had been crapped on!
      Geez it was cold there yesterday. At 3 quarter time I said to those I was with - that I'd have been happy with Bont and Ziebell just shook hands and agreed to finish up the game. Mercy rule for the spectators and tired players!

        On the walk up LaTrobe Street back to my car was freezing. Reminded me of the olden days.
        TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.

          The facilities were in an awful state. Level 3 looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in weeks.

              Works better an open roof on a nice sunny day and with a bigger crowd to put off the seagulls.

                Roof open on a sunny day is horrible for the light and dark patches on the ground, more so for TV than at the ground but it depends where you sit.

                About the only time the roof should be open at Marvel is on a fine balmy night.

                  Yes very true Axe Man. I forgot that. That is a big issue as well. Ordinarily it is closed most of the time.

                    In terms of actual playing conditions, the roof didn't cause any issues but in terms of the experience, it's bad. Probably makes it a good 5 degrees colder and the bloody seagulls are a joke. Surely it gets re-assessed.

                      It was quite good listening to Bob Murphy on the radio yesterday. Obviously, he gives a little few more snippets about Bulldogs players.

                          He lost all credibility when he gave Zurhaar 2 votes... Which game were you watching Bob?

                            They showed vision of Sarah Jolle of Fox Footy with seagull dropping on her - whilst simultaneously playing Flock of Seagulls 'I ran' whilst they went to a commercial break

We’ve had tough wins interstate, survived COVID disruption, injuries, and it’s rarefied air to be where we are (thought it was necessary to correct The Age’s lukewarm comment):

                              The Bulldogs are so 2016. Clearly we have a new darling to ride home to a Premiership and I don't mean the Jack variety.
                              But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.
