At the moment - I think we'll get rolled.

But if the switch flicks and we find some touch we'll smash them.

Re: Game Day 2011 - R15 Western Bulldogs vs Melbourne

just wonder how the events of the week will affect both teams.
Will the Sherman saga deflate our boys and will the tragic death of Sean Wight galvanise the Demons.

My feeling is the Dee's by a couple of goals.
Gia first goal.
Griffen BOG for us.

Liam Jones wearing a shin pad, looks like he'll be rucking

Grant's work rate early on looks good. Chasing hard and making space.

The kick to Hall was a beaut.

Young defence hurting us. Marko & Wood both cost us goals early.

Re: Game Day 2011 - R15 Western Bulldogs vs Melbourne

Melbournes ability to win the inside ball and then spread quickly and move the ball forward effectively a worry so far.

Cross, thinking... Thinking... Thinking.. kick it to the guy who was on his own in space.

Re: Game Day 2011 - R15 Western Bulldogs vs Melbourne

I think Wood is trying to play himself out of GWS contention.

Our defensive positioning has been very ordinary

Murph is giving Jurrah space but is winning plenty of it.

Coooooon!

Re: Game Day 2011 - R15 Western Bulldogs vs Melbourne

Terrible kick by Cross, but Cooney at his brilliant best to kick it off the deck under pressure.
Dahlhaus' energy and effort at the contest is fantastic for a player of his inexperience and slight build.

Re: Game Day 2011 - R15 Western Bulldogs vs Melbourne

Hall, Hooper & Barlow all missing very getable goals.

Need to take our chances in the 2nd. I think we really started to look good in the 2nd half of that quarter.

Re: Game Day 2011 - R15 Western Bulldogs vs Melbourne

Good second half of that quarter for us. Could've kicked one or two more.
As the quarter went on we started to get more influence at the stoppages. This dented Melbourne's ability to get it to their forwards who were looming as big problems for us early on as they often made better position.
