Must be doing wonders for his confidence.

I really admire his ability to keep trying and find a way to make an influence.

Maybe I was harsh on Markovic. Sorry

I think you might have been and it's been a good quarter for him.

Well I thought they were unfair. Players can improve and suggesting they are a bunch of duds because they lose a half of footy seems a bit rich. We are only 3 points behind, no matter what you think of the skills. 3 points. Get on up dogs.

Who suggeted they were a bunch of duds?

Draft post, ' Markovic is crap' etc etc

Isn't that miss from Higgins a costly one now leading into three quarter time. It was only 2 to 3 years ago and he never missed a goal playing as a forward. Since he has talked up a midfield position I feel his skills have dropped off.

Re: Game Day 2012 - R2 Western Bulldogs vs Adelaide

Yes there were.

What sort of supporters heap so much negativity after a single half of footy? Draft is past history, let's get behind the lads. Who we have is who we have on the park today.

Our goals are being kicked by mids.

You win a game here and there with that, the frustration is our fwd line isn't really functioning.

Fantastic quarter though. Looked like we actually had a structure to stop their run and we really hard at it. So good to see - we just lack a bit of class at the moment.

Hopefully that decision early on in the game does not come back to haunt us.

So you're happy with the return from our 1st rounders in the past 6 years?

They missed some easy ones too so , its even stevens at this moment.

I would sub out Smith and bring Dickson on in the last quarter.

I'll give Grant a wrap here, I think he has had a serviceable game today.

If we can win this its going to do a lot for our confidence.

Re: Game Day 2012 - R2 Western Bulldogs vs Adelaide

Oh no doubt. I just would've preferred the club to admit it, instead of pushing a line that is clearly false, and which will in turn only lead to greater eventual disenchantment from those who swallow the club's line.
I feel for McCartney, he's got alot of work to do, I just hope we make a better fist of our probably high draft picks this year and next, than we have in recent years.

All of this talk about our list has been done to death in other threads let's concentrate on this game on this thread.

So someone expecting more from early draft picks translates in your mind to referring to the players as duds? Its not an expression I can recall using but I certainly wasn't in that instance. You are reading way more into those comments than you should be. By the way, I'm unlikely to get all rah rah if we are winning or losing either.
