Game Day - Bulldogs vs Kangaroos

[GVGjr]

This is the discussion thread for todays big game.

Who's you tip to kick the first goal for us? I'll go with Higgins

The games against the Kangaroos and Power are critical for us.

Cooney to kick our first goal.

We can't afford to drop this game. I'm nervous - but so looking forward to watching the boys playing back in Melbourne again after a month away.

I will go for Gia.

How will we go on a wet track.

Re: Game Day - Bulldogs vs Kangaroos

Power first goal.

Archer & Grant to both play forward - our geriatric might beat him in the goal tally methinks

Re: Game Day - Bulldogs vs Kangaroos

Well we were well beaten today and it really cannot just be the emotion of Archers 300th.

Beaten in all aspects of the game. However, I am pleased the team did not hang their heads and did continue to play the game out right till the final siren (small consolation I know).

Thought Gia worked hard all day which is what I wanted. Kangaroos just wanted it more and our skills were way down. Cross, Griffen, Eagleton and Murphy are sorely missed.

Gia did play well but some of his kicks really put his team mates under pressure. That pass to Hargrave from 25 meters that fell a fair way short and resulted in a free to North really typified the day for us.

Re: Game Day - Bulldogs vs Kangaroos

Yeah, and sometimes you need a bit of luck. How was Johnno's backwards goal? About the only highlight.

My TV broke - had to go to a mate's place and missed the first quarter.

Who was playing on Petrie?

Williams, Harris and Grant all had a stint on him

Consider yourself lucky. There's a replay on Fox here at 8pm. Dare I tune in?

I'd recommend going out for a pizza instead.

Even Pizza Hut is better than that rubbish we played.

Re: Game Day - Bulldogs vs Kangaroos

North do not play pretty footy and we fell for it again, our mid field got bottled up and they completly stiffled our game. Kicking for goal was appaliing 11.19 was a shocker with many chances gone missing. Grant missed two he would normally nail, Harbrow missed two, Power missed an easy one, Johnno, passed to some one from 30 metres out and stuffed it up, why the hell was he passing it any way. North were good at tackling us as well as around the stoppages where we got smashed. Very dissapointing and I refuse to watch the replay.

You are brave if you do. I don't think I can bear to watch that game again.

Re: Game Day - Bulldogs vs Kangaroos

Petrie's first goal was on Harris, his 2nd on Grant, his third was on Morris (Grant was actually his opponent but Grant and Morris got caught out covering for each other), his 4th & 5th were on Williams (the 4th was a hangar that Williams couldn't have stopped) and his 6th was on Harris.

Harris shut him out after that (he did get one more on him) but the horse had already well and truely bolted.
