Re: Game Day - R1 Western Bulldogs v Brisbane Lions

I have to say I have a few nerves about today's start of the season. I really want us to put up a good showing. I can handle a loss but not a thrashing

How is everyone else viewing today's game?

Feeling the same. Hoping for the best but expecting the worst. The two games against the Lions last year were burnt into my memory. We were terrible against them both times.

Hate to say it but I think we're going to get belted.

Im excited today as also I'm a first year member of the Dogs. Im hoping we can put in a good performance today but like Andrew said I still fear a thrashing. Having Boydy out of the side is a big loss.

I'm very much the same. I'm quite positive about our chances at the moment, think we might go ok but not convinced. As long as we're competitive to the end and don't get belted, and a few of the new guys show a bit, it'll be a pass mark in my eyes.

I am apprehensively excited.

Expecting a win or at least a really competitive 4 quarters while fearing that blowout that was so prevalent in 2012.

Lions by 45 points
FG for Dogs: Gia
Dogs best player: Cross

Not being pessimistic, I just think where we are right now is going to mean a sustained period of poor results. I just want to see growth and improvement throughout the year.

First 5 goals to the Dogs. Pressure great, and better use of the ball going forward.

Re: Game Day - R1 Western Bulldogs v Brisbane Lions

Is it just me or do we have much better ball movement without our captain in the side? Great start boys!

Wow.. That was a pleasant surprise.

Good ball use, great pressure and finished off well... Hope we can keep it up.
