Someone please shoot Dwayne Russell.

A number of times. You would expect a commentator to have some intelligence.

Wallis worries me. Makes too many mistakes.

The first hitout is always sloppy i think we will perform alot better in the second half tonight

Like every time he touches it.

I feel very deflated at the moment.

Nothing in that to suggest anything will be different this year, IMO. Early days, yes, but we should have killed that mob - and we very nearly blew it.

Didn't Gold coast win a couple of theses games last year?

Not a great showing, but not at all concerned. Most look to just be cruising.

I didn't have high hopes from a footy standards perspective but that was disappointing. I'm sure we can lift the work rate against the Pies.

Gold Coast beat the Swans last year by a kick

Dunno. What I do know is they looked no different to 2011.

Who did we rate as the positives? Veszpremi looked OK at times.

Procrastinates and then execution below average

Re: NAB Cup - Round #1 - Bulldogs vs Giants and Magpies

Zeph did a few good things (and also took off for the customary "Jump high and hope" marking attempt!), and Jones took some strong grabs.

Remind me how we went in last year's NAB Cup? How did that translate to the real stuff?

The sloppiness at this time of year I can live with, but there didn't appear to be a whole lot of energy.

But for the extra goal from the gimme free kick, we would've lost against a side comprised mainly of kids who have never played against an AFL outfit before and who would've been quite nervous. We should've won quite easy, instead we scraped over the line.
