Leader Izzy Huntington says there is still plenty of positivity among the group, despite recording back-to-back losses.

While giving Carlton credit for the way it took its chances in Saturday’s Pride Game, Huntington said the Dogs will look to rectify their season when they face West Coast away this Saturday night at Leederville Oval.

“Every game is sort of amplified in terms of what it means for ladder positioning, but as cliché as it sounds you just take it week by week,” she said in the post-game press conference.

“We’ve got great people in charge and really good trust in the coaching division, so we trust them and the changes they’ll make.

“We’ll just do everything we can to get ourselves up and ready for the flight to Perth.”

"It’s not all negative – you look at the positives as well and see we have got that strong midfield"

Huntington also commended her teammates for the way they battled in the middle against the Blues.

“It’s not all negative – you look at the positives as well and see we have got that strong midfield – the Blackburns, the Lambs, the McCarthys all did a really great job, and we’ve got to pat them on the back.

“It’s not all doom and gloom in terms of that.”

Skipper Ellie Blackburn was another Bulldog recognised for her efforts, polling three coaches’ votes for her 20 disposals and four tackles.

I was a bit surprised that Ellie was up there in the votes because watching the game I thought she wasn't as prominent as we've been accustom to.

She's a great player but I thought she was well held on the weekend. Maybe watching from the box does her a bit of an injustice.
