Game Day 2012 - R10 Western Bulldogs vs Sydney

Re: Game Day 2012 - R10 Western Bulldogs vs Sydney

That was a truly horrible half of football.

Our leaders were nowhere to be seen, and we lacked common sense and composure across the whole ground.

Aside from Picken and Minson I can't find any positives out of today so far. I'd be putting Higgins on the ball and telling him he has a half to justify his position in the side.

You could say the same to Murphy, Dickson and Vez.

Disgusting.

I think the coaching has contributed in many respects too. Playing 3 talls (Minson, Cordy, Roughead) in wet weather footy, having no forward structure and allowing Richards to mop up and then create overlap run out of our back half.

Sydney are also playing tall - Mumford, Pyke and LRT and going along fine.

We are not doing the basics, keeping our feet, keeping our composure when we have the ball.

Boo to the SCG redevelopment... our players having to walk a country mile just to get to and from their change rooms. Perhaps they're exhausted?

Dickson's effort on Shaw was poor.

They probably should've kept walking at half time, back to the airport.

How can a professional footballer under no pressure look up, see no team mate and still make the decision to kick it to the opposition?

Has 100 point loss written all over it . How many times can it go over the back for goals ?

Where is our cheersquad. Obviously not on the other side as they are developing there.

Re: Game Day 2012 - R10 Western Bulldogs vs Sydney

Higgins just let Shaw waltz away through the corridor to set up an easy goal.

He needs a massive wake up call.

18 shots on goal to 4.
If Macca cannot start to incorporate a need to spread amongst our midfield, then these sort of results will keep coming.

Our blokes are slow to get back up off the ground. They don't want it.

Made worse by the fact he's our captain. The coaches simply cannot continue to abide that sort of dumb football.
Both Eade and Macca don't seem to want to accept that our skipper needs to make some changes to the way they want him to play.
