      final score 104 to 62. 42 points. Not bad I suppose considering it was played at a neutral ground interstate.

        That was our worst performance for the year. We were worse than the StKilda game at certain stages. Some big issues;

        -our skill level is deplorable
        -we can't hit a target to save ourselves
        -zero spread, GWS spread much better than us
        -we don't appear to run harder enough (is that a mind set or conditioning?)
        -non functioning forward line

        It's going to be a long, dark winter for us .....

          Another ugly game , just need to re-group re-cover and re-arm for the Collingwood game , and against the Pies we will need a strong first quarter

            Not bad? We were (are) woeful.

              Ward only took his eyes off the ball at the last second when Luke came into his vision. At this point he went no harder then you would expect a player in his position to go. The incident was made to look worse by Luke's leg action.

                That was an absolutely pathetic performance and no Bulldog supporter should be happy with that effort.

                Our skills have really dropped off, I kinda wonder if they took GWS seriously and just played for the win.

                No happy Jan

                  Ugliest 2 game winning streak ever? A positive is that we did kick 15 goals in 3 quarters.

                  Seriously, still a bit to like today, Cordy and Wallis particularly. Griffen was good, as was Cooney, and the reliable suspects also did their usual thing (Picken, Boyd, Crossy etc). One of Sherman's better games in Dogs colours. Minson was good too.

                  Couple of tough games ahead now against Collingwood and North.
                  Have you heard Butters wants to come to the Dogs?

                    The worst?

                    You obviously didnt watch the Saints game. 2 goals for the game till the 25 min mark of the last quarter

                          That was the least satisfying win I've seen oin a while. Is there such a thing as a disappointing win?

                              He would have got killed if he did as he would have been completely open.

                              He showed awareness of his surroundings, but obviously gave away a free kick.

                                not with the season the dogs are having. Beggars can't be choosers.

                                Can someone talk me through Lake today? Was listening to the radio and Drew Morphett (however it is spelt), said "two years ago Lake was all Australian, now he'll struggle to be all western suburbs". Has he been that bad lately?
