Not Worth A Thread - Random Bulldog Discussion - Part 2

[Dogs_R_Us]

I've heard the players like Bevo - but what about the fans? Would you be happy with a change?

I like him. It would kill me to see him bonding with another team and making them successful. If he leaves I hope he retires from footy and takes his family on a world cruise

It's been 5 hours - I'll post something.

What's your hopes/expectations for the Dogs in 2025? I think you're potential top 4. Keep the injuries to a minimum and anything could happen.

Top 4 or bust for me. The pieces and experience are there.

If we aren't firmly entrenched in the top 6 by the bye round, time to move Bevo on. If we are floundering around 10-8 like we always do, that's just not good enough.

Consistency from game 1, the only time team changes should take place is with injury or someone seriously pushing their case in the VFL. Feels like we change our team way too often and it takes half a season to get it settled.

I have to say Harmsy is great with the kids, really cute video of him.

Agreed,

Final last year i'll give them a mulligan, really should've finished top 4 some of the early losses where we were adapting to the new gameplan and style aren't an excuse now this year,

Stack of top end talent or emerging talent, added in some good meat and potatoes grunt guys like Kennedy and Harmes over the last 2 years and our depth looks good on paper just need it to click between the ears (E.G Tim English)

Tim English and Luke Beverage are my biggest concerns for this current team.

The fact that we’ve just changed our games style completely to “Bevos strip club” because we don’t trust the ruck we just signed long term to win us first possession says wonders…

Like the tactic of having an extra around the ball.
You shouldn't really need the extra if you are getting good service from your ruck duels.
You end up paying for it elsewhere on the field.

Sadly, yes. Alot of this comes back to lack of competitiveness in the ruck and having to push a HHF up to the stoppage leaving us -1 in the forward half, a tactic we were still doing this season.

Would his run-up to kick a goal be the same as bowling?

Reckon he'd kick it 60 metres off one step.

Pleased to see that pic with the Doggies jumper. Jasprit's one of my favourite cricketers. All class. He has almost single-handedly propped up the whole Indian side this series. (A bit like Head for Australia)

Was extremely disappointed in some of our “supporters” comments on this post from instagram. Genuine racism.

As much as this looks like a Hawthorn promo, it is an AFL one and Weightman has a great role

Does Weightman have any idea how much the graffiti removal industry costs the gov every year?
