Review Bulldogs win the true battle of the west - Rd 15

[MJG14]

Baz was fantastic. Great to see him regain form.

 

[Struggle]

I want to know tallies thoughts on today's game

Rubbish goal kicking in first three quarters aside, that was an excellent performance and win.

We were red hot and hungry from the get go.

Needed a response after the loss to Geelong and we delivered.

Feel sorry for Ryan Gardner starting to like him as a player

 

[Bont2Bruce]

Not sure we've won twice in Perth in a season for a while, let alone twice within a month. Shows this group is going places.

 

[Sentinel]

We went full Harlem Globetrotters in that last quarter and I loved it.

Libba Libba Libba!

Enjoy the win everyone great win vs West Coast in Perth in isolation for a week.

Awesome effort

 

[Igloo]

A great win in the end. Absolutely pumped them in the last.

Feel sorry for poor Gardner. He was playing very well up until his injury.

Thoughts on Garcia, Richards and Smith today?

 

[Wizard17]

The heat that JJ, Garcia, Weightman and Scott put in the forward half really made them make quite a few mistakes. Shame about Gards and the inaccuracy Infront of goal.

We would have to be one of the best 4th quarter sides wouldn't we? And Macrae in particular, I think.

Oliver Gigacz ?

 

[Lindsay_Gilbee]

We’re a 90 second brain fade away from being top of the ladder. How good.

I reckon there’s only two players in the comp who go to Liam Ryan and know they can handle him. Maynard is one, Bailey Williams the other. What a player. Williams, Duryea and Dale are such a good medium defence.

Bailey back to his best. Richards incredible for his game back. Garcia also very good and kicked his first late

Thoughts on Garcia, Richards and Smith today?

Smith and Richards both outstanding. I liked Garcia in patches, is an absolute wrecking ball in congestion and applies great pressure.

 

[AjsGuns]

Is Bonts shoulder ok?

 

[Whoyagot]

Go dogs, how good was that last quarter!!

 

[ScragCity]

How good was Bailey Smith? Near BoG. Where's he been??

 

[BallaratBulldog]

In the end, can’t complain. Just hope our goal kicking isn’t that bad again.

Tough break for Gardiner, not confident in young.

Thoughts on Garcia, Richards and Smith today?

Garcia cracked in all day, goal was reward for effort. Rushed some disposals, but didn’t have any really bad errors

Richards was great, didn’t look at all like someone’s first game in ages coming off a bad injury

Smith needed a game like this, got his mojo back and was great. Both of his goals came at big moments

 

[Pugz89]

English beat Nic Nat. Puts those ruck concerns to bed.
Naughton is AA CHF this year.
Richards fantastic.
Bont will win the Brownlow.
Baz back into form with one of his best games of his career.
Macrae, Daniel, Duryea as good as ever.
Bruce played a very unselfish game again, loving his role in this side.

All that's needed. Close the thread after this good summary.

Forgot to mention, Richards completely outbodied McGovern and took a contested mark. You had to see it to believe it

Thoughts on Garcia, Richards and Smith today?

Loved all 3. Garcia was really lively and loved his attack on the contest, he adds some grunt for us. Richards was fantastic, was moving really well to cover defensively and had nice moments penetrating as well. Smith was playing at his best when the game was there to be won for us, and mid way through the game was looking like he could steal the 3 points after 2 goals.

Thoughts on Garcia, Richards and Smith today?

Richards was bloody good both defensively and offensively.

Smith was back to his best.

Garcia was impressive but one of our weaker performances. Still liked his game overall which is indicative of how well we performed. Lot of grunt and attack in the contest, forced a few goals that will certainly be highlighted in the review.

 

[Dogs 13]

How good was Bailey Smith? Near BoG. Where's he been??

We ambushed them.

 

[Dogs_r_barking]

I love it when the team come out with intent. They didn’t let up all game, kept the Cokers anxious and fumble.
