Round 3 VFL - Footscray Bulldogs v Werribee - Saturday 5 April 2025 • 1:05 PM -

Ripper game. Hynes last two goals in dying minutes were pearlers. Like how coach put him on ball last few mins too.

Bit of grit about afl & vfl teams. Great to see.

Gutsy win to go against the trend of the scoring end

[Eastdog]

Go Footscray! Great win after that tough 2nd quarter. Great goals there at the end.

Hynes is going to be a hell of a player.

Genuine 1999 vibes from our draft haul last year.

Busslinger needs to learn to play low risk exit from defensive 50. A few costly turnovers. Otherwise looked good imo.

Scott looked ok before injury. He has had rotten luck. Hope it’s not another concussion but fear it is. Wonder if he is entering need to retire territory.

I’d written off Smith however he has improved this year & is pretty gutsy. Might make it even though undersized.

100% agree.

Hynes has to me a bit of that Stringer vibe (in game). How he got his foot on those two late goals under immense pressure was amazing. Werribee are a damn good side.

I think Croft will be good too.

I thought Hynes kicked 2 late goals-ha ha. Serves me right for watching in transit/tram on my phone.

Hynes had a very good game. Made a solid contribution against a good quality opposition. He will be pushing for a spot in the coming weeks.

In what position,
he is a midfielder isn’t he ?
with Bont and maybe Treloar coming back soon where do you see he fits as a
forward pocket ?

More a forward at this stage. The midfield role is something to work towards when he has a bigger aerobic capacity.

HFF is the most likely position when the likes of Kennedy, Sanders and Harmes are in the midfield.

[kruder]

Croft only 1 pos? Was he injured?

[Eastdog]

It was a great afternoon out at Werribee.

I got into the ground towards the end of the 1st quarter.

Very good performance today from the Scraggers. Werribee are very good team and they were very strong in that 2nd quarter and it looked like it could be a long afternoon.

We fought back in the 2nd half very well to get the win against the reigning premiers.

Cooper Haynes played well. Those goals in the end was great. Liked Jess Busslinger’s game and Lachlan Smith.

Go Dogs!
