Gosh I hope we don’t get spanked.

To me it’s a massiv massive game. If we get done by 80+ I could see some serious pressure come re Bevo. WCE have made a move. Could we get jittery?

If it’s an honourable loss or better then Bevo is absolutely safe given our injury state.

I hate Carlton. They’re good on paper though. Mentally weak still? We’ll find out soon enough.

I wouldn?t be surprised if they tag Dale in this one our rebound is too reliant on him now that Richards is a mid.

The one thing I do like seeing is Cody playing along side only 2 talls I think he suits him playing more of a leading role, one where he can fly if required.

Fingers crossed one of their talls are a late out and we need a better performance from Marra this week has had an average year.

But yes, I'd put a defensive tag on Dale as he's a genuine metres-gained player by foot

I’m coaching down the road at the Icehouse today so can’t make it.

Will have an earpiece on the go right up until pick drop but am not feeling very confident today at all. Even though we’ve pipped them a few times, the forward line of theirs against our back line man to man feels like a big mis match.

Midfield and our forwards have a big say in the impact of that.

Would need a classic emotional upswing. A real squeeze from the mids and some Star efforts up front to get the result.

I don't think I've ever been so angry at quarter time in a football match. We are all over these flogs and yet ...same old same old. Can't kick a set shot, run into an open goal and miss, can't snap a goal for love nor money.

But there are some very good signs too however fumbles and poor decisions have cost us. Why did Bailey Dale handball to Gallagher for example?

Terrible decision against Williams. His arms were chopped. They scored a goal from that atrocious decision.

Our key defenders gotta go the easy kick out of defence, they have fought too hard to give up cheap turnovers.

This is an epic game. One of the best I've seen us play in for a while.

Pressure off the charts.

Just have to keep our heads. No silly turnovers.

Games on our terms, get it in, keep it in, make it hard to transition out.

Blues really struggling to exit our 50.

Nervous as hell all game. So many so many great efforts.

Shout out to JUH who turned it around mid match. Honestly that is something incredible. Not sure what flicked in his mind?

Bailey Dale was huge, the amount of times he b-lined the ball and wanted it more. That goal he kicked in the second was a thing of beauty.

Our best win in a very very very long time.

Oh and the mjp guy might just know a thing or two about footy.

I?ve been overseas for a month. Arrived back in Melbourne around 4.30pm, did consider getting parachuted into the ground straight from the plane as this is the sort of backs-to-the-wall stoush I simply must be there for, but then I remembered the roof is a bit of an impediment.

The sort of gritty gutsy win that we?ve been crying out for from this group. Our weakest team on paper for quite some time, against the despised Bourgois Blues, with the late withdrawal of our best player this year. I haven?t seen any of it, but can think of no better way to beat jet lag than watching it all. Go Dogs!!! Ain?t footy fantastic sometimes!

The Bulldogs Bite

Some super efforts across the team. Hats off to Marra, I've been critical but that was enormous.

We need a bit of luck on the injury front and we aren't yet totally consistent, but we are in this season up to our eyeballs. We just need to get to the finals.

Fantatic effort today . Massive turn around in the 2nd and onwards. Real even team effort.

Really like chop off in the last by Lobb.
Best game of the year i have watched.

DALE , BOG.

Makes a big difference when our tackling stick.

Cripps has to be one of the most protected players. His lift off on Darcy in the last , how that was not a free?
Carlton showing their soft underbelly.

Really proud of them .

One of our best wins under Bevo, I can?t believe we won that game.

Loved Cody as the third tall and having one of Libba or Treloar out has us better balanced in the midfield.

There is no doubt Bevo has some food for thought with the balance of the team going forward.

Some observations about our performance. I thought English was a lot more physical than usual and this really contributed to our win. However, he did have a couple of howlers that resulted in goals to Carlton.

Weightman is such an important player for us. He was up and about for the entire game. Riley West was so influential - kicking goals when we really needed them and JUH showed what a good player he is.

Bailey Dale was tremendous - gave us a lot of drive.

It was a real team performance. Congratulations to all who were part of it.
