Review Dogs 71 def Cats 55 // Rd 16, 2019

Doing god's work tonight lads. Well played.

What role would Dahlhaus actually be filling in our team if he decided to stay?

Polishing the boots for the players that want to be at the club

Dunno if you could see it on TV but Jack Macrae played one of the best defensive halves you’ll ever see from a mid on Kelly. Superstar is not enough for that man.

We won this at the game day thread title

Thanks dogwatch

Good to see Scotts late change removing a non injured player worked out so well. Flog

Same as tonight, frustrating his own supporters as a pressure forward who doesn't get much of the ball.

Thats a role of sorts I guess.

Great win

I nearly killed Trengrove through the TV screen when he did "you know what" with 3 mns to go

So proud of this group!

Somebody needs to get in Jackson's ear and tell him not to think too much and when in doubt kick the ball long, wide and look to create a stoppage or an out of bounds.

I actually though he was pretty solid tonight aside from he obvious.

Good to see the early season negativity has subsided a little. At one stage I’ll admit it looked like we might now win any more games than last year, but now it looks certain and we might press for the eight (though percentage sucks).

We’ve definitely improved a lot on last year and I think we’re building a side that can cause serious damage again.

Thought Bont (save for a few moments), Macrae, Naughton, Smith and Lloyd were excellent value tonight.

Happy to see that all of Richards, McLean and Schache have benefited from their spells in the twos.

Trengove was really solid on Hawkins but ffs DO NOT ATTEMPT SHORT PASSES!

Ugly first half but great response. We went and they couldn’t stay with us. We have an elite mid that was actually a little quiet tonight. I thought Bailey Smith was great tonight, first half he had the right attitude. Dragged a few with him that was incredible.

Eating the sweetest humble pie over my knee jerk comments about beveridge a few weeks ago

That makes 2 of us and dozen others.

 

[X_box_X]

Next week has a similar feeling to when we played Essendon in 2017. Big game on a Sunday to get us back to within striking distance.

Beveridge has his faults but I reckon he’s as good as an in game coach there is. No one can accuse him of just watching and waiting.

Then explain the blues and suns losses?

They don’t compute to the same man that can coach like tonight

After the game. A number of the players embraced Dahlhaus; Ablett went out of his way to go to Smith, congratulated him, had a bit of a chat; both sides lined up to honour an umpire, not sure what that was about but those things are heart warming, especially after a good win.

McLean halving the contest out on the wing late in last qtr was play of the night

That took me back to his efforts late in the preliminary final, just awesome.

Duryea > Ablett

Vfl at best

Have you ever stopped and thought that there might be many, many factors that go into winning a football match and it might not be as simple as kick ball, get goal?

Maybe the club has been working on a number of things internally and it's starting to come together. I don't think any single game is reflective on a persons ability to manage a group of young men.

 

[dogzrule]

Schache had a shocker. Please just back him in and keep playing him.

Bonti, dunkley, macrae, Hunter, libba, Mclean, Bailey smith. Don’t waste this midfield era dogs. Fun times ahead.

Bailey Williams is good.

If Schache doesn’t play I wonder if Naughton gets off leash and kicks 4 ?

 

[Doggy Dan]

Heading home after a Potter Marathon with my daughter all day and night. But time to watch replay when we get home

On the Geelong train with a lot of Dogs fans.........and some very quiet cats!

The magic was all happening elsewhere tonight!

That play is pretty f*cking cool though.......#keepthesecrets

 

[Struggle]

We covered the loss of Daniel pretty well, our ball movement from thr backline was still solid. Also looked much more dangerous with JJ and Suckling taking kick outs

You really are priceless. Coaches lose games, they find things out about their players. The team grows from adversity. If you can’t see the growth from some of the hard times from earlier this season I genuinely question what you get out of it.
Is Chris Scott a rubbish coach because he lost a game?
When was the last time you went to a game? It’s become apparent you comment without actually attending or watching games.
You used to be provocative with some knowledge but you’re now a caricature of yourself.
