Bulldogs VS Essendon

Doggies have more FKs than us, so not sure what you are on about

Yeah, keep telling yourself that.
In truth, number of free kicks counts for nothing. To put it in perspective, Bulldogs get a free kick for when that goal was taken off them.

Sorry trolls, better luck next week. Good to see some North supporters in here, always a laugh.

Well done Dogs, gave us everything we can handle. It's pretty rare that we get beat in the possession count these days. If you had half a forward line, you would've won.

What today shows is that our midfield still really lacks depth. Hopefully we can address that in the post season by trading a tall. It's going to be a problem come Haw/Coll in a few weeks.

I know a club that might swap you a good small for a good tall.

Seems like the Dons supporters in this thread mustn't have had too much to say before the final siren, given the post rate.

 

[DapperDon]

Ahh well just another 4 points you are going to lose anyway, Moos

Drink!

Oh dear poor diddums would you like a tissue for your bad loser whinge?

 

[Jaeger]

Right in front of you?

We all saw it.

Can't wait to play you in two weeks.

Doggies have more FKs than us, so not sure what you are on about

Essendon supporters against Brisbane: "WE ARE BEING ROBBED BY THE UMPIRES! I KNOW WE HAVE MORE FREE KICKS THAN THEM BUT THAT DOESN'T MATTER! WE AREN'T GETTING NEARLY ENOUGH FREE KICKS AND ALL THE 50/50 CALLS ARE GOING AGAINST US! TOTALLY ROBBED! WAH WAH WAH!"

Essendon supporters against the Bulldogs: "SHUT UP BIGFOOTY! WE AREN'T GETTING AN ARMCHAIR RIDE AT ALL! LOOK AT THE FREE KICK COUNT! SEE! THEY HAVE MORE FREE KICKS THAN US! A WHOLE ONE MORE THAN US! WE ARE BEING HARD DONE BY! WAH WAH WAH!"

What a delusional and hypocritical base of supporters.

 

[Matthew_Lloyd]

Btw well played Dogs, bright future

So they only would have lost by 25 then.

Was watching the game, did make a few posts though.

Is that ok sweetheart?

Go back and count how many goals you got directly from frees, then do the same for us.

I expected us to get thrashed, so i'm happy with how we played, but that shithouse umpiring has left a very sour taste in my mouth.

Shhhh some people just don't get it.

 

[ManOfClay]

Thanks umpires. Hrovat gets paid that goal (the umpire in the play was calling advantage) and the match would have been very different. That killed our momentum.

So pissed off.

 

[bullish23]

The thing is SO often the umps wave 'play on advantage' when clearly there is no advantage. Then there is the most obvious advantage in the game and they call it back. Absolutely stunned by that decision. Just gives you the sh1ts.

 

[JasRulz63]

Free kick totals aren't everything though, that Melksham out of bounds goal was a shocker.

As annoying as that advantage rule call was, it was the right call. Stupid rule, but correct call according to it.

My pet hate is when people blame the umpires. No issues with your team? No credit to Esesndon? Not beaten by the better team on the day? Or all just umpire bias?

 

[doggies ftw]

Oh dear poor diddums would you like a tissue for your bad loser whinge?

Nope but its going to be ****ing hilarious

Hi Plugger.

Try focusing on how good your team were instead. You'll get less ulcers

 

[Indie_]

Oh my! how common are the dogs fans? they are booing the umpires yet it was 17-17 free kicks. Do the doggies fan know how to count?

You are an absolute moron. The free kick count doesn't determine who was ****ed over by the umpires. Go back to the Essendon board and never come back.

 

[kelvin_sheedy]

Big brother playing with little brother. Always under control

 

[Mateyman]

Well I'm off to start a thread about people booing straight after the siren

 

[redraoh]

Good effort by the Dogs. Robbed of 18 points at least...the advantage that wasn't paid, the goal from out of bounds, and that mark in front of goal that wasn't paid in the first or second quarter.

Were the better team IMO. A few brain snaps that cost them and some flukey goals from Essendon.

 

[Jaeger]

Good workmanlike win from a quality side missing some key players. Did enough for a regulation 5 goal win

Haha pathetic.

5 goals were from direct frees that were very iffy, another 5 were flukey, there was Melksham's goal from aisle 8 row D, and the no advantage call on Hrovat when the Dogs were storming home.

 

[BallaratBulldog]

Good to see the umps always helping the bigger afl clubs.

 

[Lance Uppercut]

Nope but its going to be ******* hilarious

Sure will, when it doesn't happen and the offended of the likes of you goes off
