And yet one of them beat us by 112 last time we played.

In a home and away game at least

Time before and then when it really counted....

Ken should walk after that

No he shouldn’t not till we play the bloke at least…

Hopefully we don’t make their defenders look like prime Stephen Silvangi again

 

[TheGoatBaron]

Worst game of the year was tonight so far.

Second half was better it was close to be fair

Neither beat us by that last time we played, we beat both

Yes, I’d forgotten all about the finals last year.

If I delete them from my memory, the GF never happened.

Dons fans act like every win is a grand final

Well, to them it's the closest they can get

I watched the SANFL Grand Final Replay after the match last night and, even though it was a dour struggle due to huge pressure. The rating topped 200 for most of the match. The standard of play was far superior to that produced last night. Even many H & A games in the SANFL and some VFL are superior to that effort form Bombers and Port.

There were some segments that were really good, Horne-Francis taking the ball millimetres from the Bomber's player's hands and kicking a goal. El Hawli's run off HB and his ability to take several times and deliver. I think he turned the match for Bombers. Very good player. Very exciting for Bomber's fans. But the problem was the lack of disposal skills that was very obvious. Handballs that should never have been given or were poorly executed. Kicks that were over the head or to the left or right or too short or looked like hack kicks. Players running seemingly random patterns and not getting into good position to receive or players with the ball getting into trouble by holding onto the ball too long. It was a litany of poor footy.

I hope we NEVER play like that. Of course when we were developing the team we have now we did play several games like that and three games last season like that. Hopefully, we can have a more consistent season this year. Improving as the season goes on.

Really? I found it a very entertaining game - it was played at a frenetic pace and the Bombers' fightback was outstanding. Goal kicking a bit dodgy but...

 

[TheGoatBaron]

Tipped the Bulldogs in tonight’s game but without any confidence though. Not sure how this game will pan out

 

[Punts]

I reckon the blues get up

What a man is Cripps according to Hudson

 

[TheGoatBaron]

[TheGoatBaron]

Shakes head @ the Bulldogs.

 

[TheGoatBaron]

Fox Footy’s commentary is all a Carlton lovefest

 

[The King!]

are the umps awake to the dogs this year finally

 

[TheGoatBaron]

First three goal then lose rule tonight?

 

[Mister B]

Seen enough to know neither of these teams are doing anything significant this year. Carlton fans have already jumped off the bandwagon too by the looks.

They do have the underground criminal gangs to run

Stop missing Bullflogs

 

[TheGoatBaron]

What the **** was that free to Cripps for? Because he was touched? FFS

 

[TheGoatBaron]

Way to let Australian down Bullflogs

Port Melbourne v Preston is tonight’s NPL game in covering for anyone who cares, which will be no one
