[angelopetraglia]

This game thread is already bringing up bad memories of the final last year. 40 points up at the 11m mark of the second quarter. Lose by 13 points. Only managing to kick one goal per quarter after kicking 5 goals in the first quarter.

Hopefully we can make a statement and get a big win on the road, but it is not going to be easy.

It's a really big week for the group. They get an opportunity to once again square the ledger with two easy opponents in the subsequent rounds. But bigger than that is the opportunity to deal with those demons you've mentioned from last year's final.

It's never easy over in Perth but if we can bring a good pressure game then Fremantle will struggle to break the lines.

Wierdly I am confident about this week. I don't think Freo are playing that good and whilst we are 2-3, we have lost 3 teams who will be there are the business end of the season.

Get the selections right and this game is very very winnable!

In 2021 at Optus we splashed a GF against the wall.
On 3rd September 2022 at Optus we splashed a final against the wall after leading by 34 points at 1/4 time.

Just there for the FF points are we or is it time to stand up ?

K Mart lookin jumper. Surprised it even has sponsors on it.

[Grantysghost]

That is pretty yuk.

[MrMahatma]

Prob a good thing Bruce is out. Those big stripes around the gut would get this forum up and about is firm discussion about his pre-season.

At least Robo Dog didn't disappear when you tucked your jumper in your shorts like that blue strip does

I feel like I've had it forced on me Angelo. I am not a willing participant.

I'm sorry if I wasn't clear. That is an abomination.

[Jeanette54]

Wooooh! Robbo Dog is quietly requesting you hold his beer.

Can I say, here and now, I loved the Robbo Dog jumper, it was about the only decent clash jumper we have ever had. The only jumper that I purchased both home and away versions for the collection. Also have the Red version, match worn by Ben Harrison.

And while I am at it:

It's the soul selling aspect more. But hey fmd it's a capitalist world we are in a tough market do what you have to do.

I would never have removed gaming from the club personally.

1) A drunk person.
2) The drunk people they were with.


Seriously - lets design a new jumper, we'll try and make it better than the last.

Ok drop the hoops below the shorts and make them weirdly bigger.

If those same hoops were under the armpits it might actually work.

Click and drag people click and drag.

[whythelongface]

I like the thicker stripes but way too much white up top. Move the stripes so that the top of the red stripe is an inch below the bottom of the arm hole then it would look pretty good.

[EasternWest]

We're well on top here, need to make the most of our opportunities. I hope we don't come to regret this later.

Ctrl + C, Ctrl + V for those wanting to save time next week.

[chef]

**** sake.

[BornInDroopSt'54]

Far out!
Nail those shots, at leat one out of five.

[MrMahatma]

Wow.

[Bumper Bulldogs]

They go forward for two goals. We need a goal kicking coach. Same old same old

[angelopetraglia]

This could only happen to us. Two inside 50s to 10.

[The Bulldogs Bite]

I'm at the game and this is so predictable. Dominate for no return

[angelopetraglia]

How many times in the Bevo era do we dominate for zero return? How?

[BornInDroopSt'54]

Who kicked that ball to Liam thar went OB?

[BornInDroopSt'54]

How many times in the Bevo era do we dominate for zero return? How?

Far suck of the sav, blame this on Bevo???

[angelopetraglia]

Great pressure. We are bringing the intensity.

[hujsh]

Obviously we just needed a goals worth of points before getting a goal. Now it's fine we can goal again

[angelopetraglia]

Far suck of the sav, blame this on Bevo???

That’s not blame. I’m saying in the Bevo era it is a consistent trend. That is a fact.

[hujsh]

Terrible Macrae

[angelopetraglia]

Keath. How? How do you drop that. We gift them goals at one end. Miss every shot at the other.

[BornInDroopSt'54]

Too many mistakes starting with Macrae, Williams lead to that goal.
Again Lobb!

[G-Mo77]

Terrible Macrae

Yeah it was but I was more pissed about not one single forward inside the forward half at all. Absolute amatuers

[Grantysghost]

Macrae handballed it to the opposition then jogged back to see what might happen.

[angelopetraglia]

How is that a free to Jackson?

[BornInDroopSt'54]

I feel like we are a waking dragon.
A serpent unwinding.

[MrMahatma]

I feel like we are a waking dragon.

And we will erupt!

[whythelongface]

Great quarter except for the obvious. Can we maintain this? That is as good as we have played for a while. Fast ball movement, great separation.

[angelopetraglia]

Just a lazy nine touches and a goal for Bont. He is everywhere!

[The Bulldogs Bite]

We are dominating Pearce. First Marra and then Naughton had him worried. Let's channel the play through his opponent.

Great atmosphere/ground - miles ahead of Marvel

It's UK 1970s. Possibly redundant.

Bontempelli is seriously playing a different game.

[angelopetraglia]

If we had kicked straight this game would be over.

Class from truck.

[westdog54]

That's an outstanding finish by Williams.

Bont is tearing then to shreds.

Redemption for BW. I like it. Classy.

Williams not normally someone I back to kick straight, great goal

[angelopetraglia]

Great pressure again. Great tackle and finish Astro.

[westdog54]

My God BT shits me. That was as clean a tackle as you'll find and he tries to make something of nothing.

[BornInDroopSt'54]

The build uo with Freo targetting Lobb was petty and bad kharma.

[westdog54]

Keath's lack of composure is a big worry.

[Grantysghost]

My God BT shits me. That was as clean a tackle as you'll find and he tries to make something of nothing.

Turn the sound down

[merantau]

Please, no more brain fades to keep them in the game.

[lemmon]

Keath having a mare.

[Bumper Bulldogs]

That?s dumb. Why would English hit it back to the centre at the throw in

[dukedog]

Here we go

[dukedog]

Now we turn into road cones

[hujsh]

Walters can just put the ball on the ground while being tackled now can he?

[hujsh]

We really suck with Bont off the field

[angelopetraglia]

Gee whiz Freo getting away with some clear throws

[angelopetraglia]

They kick the hard set shots. We miss everything. How is this a one goal ball game.

[ratsmac]

Here we go. I think I've seen this before

[EasternWest]

If we had kicked straight this game would be over.

Well this has never been said before:).

[ratsmac]

Mids getting smashed

[The Underdog]

That?s dumb. Why would English hit it back to the centre at the throw in

Why would Young not have an opponent?

[ledge]

Same old same old, stop halfway through the second qtr take off Bont and let them kick 4 or 5 in a row .

[angelopetraglia]

Stick it right up ‘em Lobb

[ledge]

Why do we kick to the only tall they have when we are going forward ?

[hujsh]

Bont back, clearance won, goal scored. We feel a one man army at the moment

[westdog54]

Atta boy Rory. Only way to shut them up.

[merantau]

Well done Rory.

[westdog54]

The inside 50 tackling is monstrous.

[hujsh]

The inside 50 tackling is monstrous.

It's the big positive and feels a bit 'men of mayhem'

[angelopetraglia]

How is that Macrae Table not holding the ball? How?

[westdog54]

The message has sunk in on sling tackles. Both teams have been very disciplined.

[hujsh]

How is that Macrae Table not holding the ball? How?

My guess was it was knocked out in the tackle. He never really held him he sort of knocked the arm while kicking before the tackle stuck

[westdog54]

How is that Macrae Table not holding the ball? How?

A missed call.

[ledge]

How is that Macrae Table not holding the ball? How?

I rekon a few we haven’t got and should have.

[The Underdog]

How is that Macrae Table not holding the ball? How?

Probably thought it came out in the tackle, borderline though.

[HOSE B ROMERO]

Best pressure for the season. 'A' grade for effort. Go dogs!

[whythelongface]

Great work to stop Freos run. They were dominant for about 6 mins. Normally we would have caved in.

[whythelongface]

Bont needs to get fitter so we don’t need to take him off. When he was off is only time Freo were on top

[ratsmac]

Can we clone the Bont. Without his dominance we are found wanting.

English is a bit spooked atm. He needs to concentrate on what he does best. He's been ok but great. The Darcy Jackson combo has worked well for them

[merantau]

Best pressure for the season. 'A' grade for effort. Go dogs!

Too right.

[DOG GOD]

Bont has been huge…big difference when he’s not in the middle. Gotta take the opportunities

[whythelongface]

Lobb’s best match for us. English a beast just needs to hold some of those marks in the backline.

[The Bulldogs Bite]

Bont is on another level and it's really obvious at the ground. When he goes off, we look ordinary.

English is getting beaten but competing well. Darcy is a massive bloke.

Keath and Duryea both done for me. The former goes to ground and panics, the latter decided going inboard to McLean of all players is a good idea when he should have been slowing the game down.

Freo are bog average, our effort is good but as usual when our mids lose the battle we look bog average ourselves.

[DOG GOD]

The pressure has certainly been there, but that period where Freo had 12-15 handballs was because we couldnt lay a tackle on them. Frustrating beyond belief.

[ratsmac]

My guess was it was knocked out in the tackle. He never really held him he sort of knocked the arm while kicking before the tackle stuck

I know but I've seen them paid before. 50/50

[angelopetraglia]

Probably thought it came out in the tackle, borderline though.

Agree. But he had prior. So that is ball.

[Yankee Hotel Foxtrot]

A lot to like about some crucial aspects of our game, in amongst some of the recurring deficiencies rearing their head.
I do like the fact we wrestled back against Freo's surge. In recent history in these scenario's we've dropped trou and presented ourselves, not unlike a quivering Jerry slug(for Rick and Morty fans).

[MrMahatma]

Great first half when you look at it, outside of some missed set shots.

No reason for panic. Do it all again and we win. Go lads

Treloar. 16 possessions and going at 88% efficiency so far. Really lifted that quarter. Big improvement on efficiency versus last week.

??????????????????????

[G-Mo77]

Really good half of footy. Obvious negative is our set shots, again. Also thought we were in big trouble when they dropped 3 goals on us but rallied back and took a decent lead into the break. Really good pressure all over the ground, lets keep this up in the 2nd half. P-please!!

[lemmon]

Pretty happy with that. Tenacious and beating them on the inside. We're really putting the squeeze on and locking it inside our forward half - need to start converting some of those opportunities.

[HOSE B ROMERO]

The pressure has certainly been there, but that period where Freo had 12-15 handballs was because we couldnt lay a tackle on them. Frustrating beyond belief.

I actually thought our pressure was unrelenting during that sequence. Previously in matches the opposition would have got away after 4 or 5 handballs.

[lemmon]

I actually thought our pressure was unrelenting during that sequence. Previously in matches the opposition would have got away after 4 or 5 handballs.

Completely agree. There was a passage where Arty and Marra refused to give up the chase. Clip that up and show that in review, was outstanding.

Yep. excellent pressure to bring to reply back to kick 2 more goals.
the 3 on the run was when Bont went to the Bench

Gee the umps have missed a few holding the ball decisions in our forward half tonight against the dockers. They are swollening the whistle there tonight.

English is playing like another mid with his good ground work and agility. Really good work rate tonight

[angelopetraglia]

Adam Treloar. Going so well at the moment.

[westdog54]

Adam Treloar. Going so well at the moment.

His run is astounding.

[hujsh]

Bont turned being put under a ton of pressure into an huge opportunity

[angelopetraglia]

They take every chance. Every set shot. They convert.

[BornInDroopSt'54]

Our dragon is unfurling.
Bont, Treloar, English...

[ratsmac]

We was our defensive mid at that bounce

[hujsh]

Hopefully I don't jinx him but TOB has been decent. I and a few others probably harsh on him last week,

[westdog54]

I can't believe we just saw Caleb Daniel flatten Sean Darcy in a marking contest.

[macca]

Daniel just floored Darcy. I wish this to could be called the MOMENT where we overrun the dockers.

[BornInDroopSt'54]

Bevo said after last week that in last qtr we lost in areas we normally pride ourselves in.
I don't expect us to lose this last qrt.

[westdog54]

That's a stupid free for Wagner to concede to Flea there. Good to see him convert.

[angelopetraglia]

You have to love the way Liam Jones attacks the ball in the air. Backs himself and just launches. Love it.

[hujsh]

Good team defence there. At Marvel last year they keep moving the ball around but this time we shut them down and forced the intercept

[JanLorMill]

Daniel just floored Darcy. I wish this to could be called the MOMENT where we overrun the dockers.
Last time he did it that to a ruck it turned a GF

[merantau]

Great read of play by Liam Jones

[hujsh]

Keath didn't even know he was there jesus that was soft

[BornInDroopSt'54]

BS free!

[angelopetraglia]

Gee whiz, Keath stiff there. How. He ran into him. He want going the ball. How is that a free?

[The Bulldogs Bite]

Retire Keath.

[lemmon]

Bloke threw himself to the ground like a rag doll, but okay then umpire

[macca]

Amos bumps into Keith ( eyes on the ball) and he falls over and gets a free. just another bad umpire decision

[JanLorMill]

Worse free of the night

[whythelongface]

That is not a free

[ratsmac]

That's a bullshit free against Keath. Smaller bloke can't take body contact

[macca]

Good kick Williams, for 4 goal lead. We need to run over them this quarter to get some percentage back.

[BornInDroopSt'54]

Gee William's whole approack to that kick was professional, right from pickjng himself off the ground, he had focus.

[angelopetraglia]

Lobb. **** me. How. Sums up our game and season.

That Lobb miss could well be 'The Moment' of this week

I always knew you were smart Chef

[angelopetraglia]

Adam Treloar. Take a bow. Great snap. Superb.

[macca]

Lobb playing the shirt front dummy whilst the whole Freo team get sucked in and Treloar snaps a goal

[JanLorMill]

Jamarra should have 5 by now

[1eyedog]

Actually Adam Treloar is a bit of a superstar. Just sayin.

[hujsh]

I don't quite get why they seem to hate Lobb so much. Yeah he asked to leave but he's kinda old and they got more back from him than he was maybe worth

[lemmon]

It'll be an interesting call on the sub. Maybe Arty? It's a like for like and he's done a heap of running tonight

[angelopetraglia]

Treloar. 26 touches. 81% efficiency.

[Bumper Bulldogs]

It it time for the sub. A Jones out McNeil in

[ratsmac]

We need to catch breath and go again. They threw everything at us in the 2nd half of that quarter and we stood pretty firm. We can't let this one slip no way

[The Underdog]

I don't quite get why they seem to hate Lobb so much. Yeah he asked to leave but he's kinda old and they got more back from him than he was maybe worth

He’s only played 5 games for us and I’m already pretty ok with him leaving

[angelopetraglia]

We lead by four goals. They have yet to kick four goals in a quarter. We just need to score a couple of goals this quarter to make it really tough for them.

[bornadog]

We lead by four goals. They have yet to kick four goals in a quarter. We just need to score a couple of goals this quarter to make it really tough for them.

Need a couple in a row to break them. This goal for goal BS is not on

[DOG GOD]

McNeil for McLean ??

[Yankee Hotel Foxtrot]

I don't quite get why they seem to hate Lobb so much. Yeah he asked to leave but he's kinda old and they got more back from him than he was maybe worth

Some guys aren't really good socialisers, or sometimes people grate in particular environments. Whatever it is, it s clear the players really don't like him.
Either that or they're cognisant of some inside knowledge that maybe he goes to jelly when the heat is applied?

[G-Mo77]

I don't quite get why they seem to hate Lobb so much. Yeah he asked to leave but he's kinda old and they got more back from him than he was maybe worth

Works for us, seems like a big distraction for these lads.

Please don't throw this away now Dogs. Pour on some early and shut these wankers in the crowd up for good.

[JanLorMill]

It’s Fremantle they try to conjure up anything.

[lemmon]

Good fight back from Keath in that term. Really strong in some contests with Jackson

[JanLorMill]

They subbed Amiss knowing he wasn’t getting another soft free

[BornInDroopSt'54]

Works for us, seems like a big distraction for these lads.

Please don't throw this away now Dogs. Pour on some early and shut these wankers in the crowd up for good.

When we are motivated by a weak emotion like resentment, it makes us weak.

[westdog54]

Truck is in beast mode tonight.

[azabob]

Williams has had a pearler of a game

[JanLorMill]

Lobb is the best decoy

[ratsmac]

Bailey Williams you star

[hujsh]

**** YEAH I LOVE SEEING TRUCK DO WELL.

I always knew he could be goalkicker for us

[macca]

Williams has had a pearler of a game

Three goals, its a fair effort and they have all been very good kicks.

[azabob]

Three goals, its a fair effort and they have all been very good kicks.

Yep. All different goals too.

[BornInDroopSt'54]

A careless approach to goal by Naughton.

[macca]

10 marks for Jamarra. His worked really hard tonight and has lead well. confidence is really growing.

27 scoring shots to 16
12 min mark of the final quarter

[Grantysghost]

McNeil already best on this qtr.

[angelopetraglia]

Adam Treloar. Absolute superstar.

[westdog54]

Everything Treloar touches seems to turn to gold tonight.

[ratsmac]

Trealor may very well be BOG

[lemmon]

We've been terrific in the fourth (and all night). Haven't given them a sniff

[azabob]

Such a pleasure watching Treloar play in his natural position.

[azabob]

Everything Treloar touches seems to turn to gold tonight.

He’s been epic all year.

[angelopetraglia]

Treloar in the middle > Dunkley in the middle

[The Underdog]

He’s been epic all year.

Always thought he was the power half of Trenkley

[angelopetraglia]

I worship at the altar of Bontempelli.

[The Underdog]

Raise the bat boys. Tons up

[EasternWest]

Bont is so good.

[ratsmac]

I stand corrected Bont may very well be BOG

[whythelongface]

This is the benchmark. Play like this consistently and we give this comp a shake.

[westdog54]

Trealor may very well be BOG

I think the skipper just had something to say about that.

[azabob]

Bontempelli is seriously playing a different game.

This bares repeating

[angelopetraglia]

Big statement tonight. We should really have four wins in a row. Never should have allowed that lapse last week.

[ratsmac]

Time to slam on some goals. They have stopped. Let's get back some percentage

[G-Mo77]

What a win against these absolute morons. Good to really hammer the win home. Well done boys!

[bulldogsthru&thru]

Haven't seen any of our wins this year. Don't think I'll watch another game!

[ratsmac]

McNeil always kicks goals it seems

[macca]

Lobb should have 3 more tonight, its terrible miss in the last quarter

[chef]

Nice percentage booster

[hujsh]

All I want now is a Jones goal

[Grantysghost]

Liam Jones has been magnificent
