Chris Grant,
This aged pensioner will give you $200 to 2xecute Luke Beveridge's tenure.
The Fates have decreed, forget the Ides of March, beware the 19th of April wirhout decisive surgery of coaching staff.
Such agreat side pathetic, as bad as teams Whitten had to suffer.

Reckon this is a coach killer.

We said that about the gws loss, the hawks loss and west coast loss.

What an embarrassing performance.

I can?t see how Beveridge survives this.

He shouldn?t. Enough is enough. Weeks and season matter. Someone call Simpson.

Every week a coach brings a different game plan to beat us. This week we didn?t lose to the transition game. They made it a I?m close fight and we were not up to it.

There first six goals originated from a free kick, which has to be a record. I thought the umps kept them in it early. We looked the better team.

Half way through the second we had control. We looked like we would gap them. Didn?t take a few chances.

After that, we didn?t look like scoring. We hang in there, but didn?t throw any punches.

A few 50/50 calls didn?t go our way that resulted in two quick goals after JOD missed a simple opportunity to close the game to a kick.

After that, they lifted and we just crumbled. Embarrassing. Pathetic. Disgraceful. Throw in any other adjective you want.

We are cooked. Put a fork in us.

Sadly, I think you might be on the money. I cannot understand how we can dominate the game in the second quarter and then just go to water. It was really embarrassing.

The same old problems are still there. We just don't take our chances and so many of those are gimmes!

We are in trouble. There is no doubt about it. That was a game we should have won and we blew it big time.

Just tremendous that we continue to rock a game plan that means if Bont & Libba don't poll Brownlow votes we basically lose.

Is that game plan or personnel?

Who stepped up and played a good game in their place?

I put this loss at English's feet, more than Beveridge. He was monstered in the exact way that we all knew he would be. It flowed from there.

The timing of it all with players out of contract and now a coach under significant pressure. It all started with Tim English tonight make no mistake his first quarter was beyond?. Bevo has made a statement by dropping AA talent but it looks like the rest of the group hasn?t responded and its now questionable whether they are behind him. 50k awesome crowd sad night for the football club.

Libba decked by Stringer, on all fours, nobody does a thing.

A vision of our soulless footy club.

Re: Bulldogs V Bombers - Round 5, 12/4/24 Marvel Stadium 7.40PM AEST

It as obvious as a bulldog's knackers that the coach has list the players who played wirhout belif or hope.
Moreover the game plan is shizenhausen!
Cut deep is b3st pol7cy, a hard prune into old wood required.
We ain't going nowhere with our great hopes.
Like a death 8n the family, we must find new life from rot!

Draper mocking Libba after said tackle and not being put on his ass was worse.

We stand for nothing.

Re: Bulldogs V Bombers - Round 5, 12/4/24 Marvel Stadium 7.40PM AEST

Was at the game tonight
The umpires were down right cheating tonight ..
4 goals to bs free kicks. In the first quarter. And some of the softest over the shoulder taps.

The players looked dejected at 3 qtr time and played even worse than essendon . They had to double down and worker harder.

There was some selfish footy tonight by our players. These type of games are coach killers i am afraid.

How on earth can ordinary players like langford get some much space.
Some serious sole searching needs to be done this week.

I think if you do anything to Draper the teachers aide comes in and tells you off.

Didn't get to watch the game. This seems a nice summary. Any other thoughts on why we lost? (Other than sack to coach, please..)
