23 inside 50s for 11 goals is the real issue imo. Midfield pressure has been non existent for large patches of the game which causes our average at best defence to crumble.

I feel sorry for any Bulldogs member who went to this game expecting to see their team pushing for a finals spot. Maybe as a punishment, this week the players can write a personal apology to each member who showed up and had to sit through this embarrassment. Thank God I decided to give it a miss. I would have been just hanging my head in shame if I was there. At least I can turn it off (well my foxtel decided to turn it off by itself it was so bad) and go and do something better with my time and not get as angry as I would have if I had been at the game.

Personal hand written apologies by each player to the members for this garbage
 
Saints 5.1 Dogs 3.4 after dominating. Pretty damned close ... are you Nostradamus?

Unfortunately not, we just have a predictable footy side. Dominate after a weak beginning but don’t hit the scoreboard enough, structure loose at the back so the opposition walks in a few easy goals to negate all the dominance.

Third quarter will be similar and we’ll lose by just enough that it slips by unnoticed in the wider media. Rinse and repeat.
 
In 150 odd AFL games this is the first absolute stinker I’ve seen Jack Macrae play. Came at a bad time.

No he heard the touched call and made the wrong choice. We were 2-on-1. He still should have grabbed the ball (80-20 outcome) not go for a punch with a 50-50 outcome.

Just dumb panicky football.
He routinely does that..... we will often spoil a simple mark or when we do spoil it’s an indiscriminate punch that goes straight to the opposition. Easton Wood does it all the time too
 
Got to give a lot of credit to St Kilda today, we’re playing some of Barcelona/Harlem Globetrotters/New England Patriot unbeatables today. They haven’t put a foot wrong

We’ve stunk the place out but scoreboard & tackling pressure can make the best look stupid .

Bev needs to stop zonal making & go man on man in games like this. Cordy standing in no man’s land is embarrassing
