Western Bulldogs coach Luke Beveridge insisted the club's players and coaches remained on the same page despite suffering a third stunning upset loss in the space of 11 games on Sunday foxsports.com.au/afl/easy-to-ex⊠#AFLDogsHawks
That was not a mark. That was a touched point. There is no way that mark was controlled before the back of the behind line. The score reviewer has had an absolute mare there #AFLDogsHawks
More injured key Carlton players are set to return for their blockbuster clash with Melbourne at the MCG on Thursday night heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/afl-⊠SuperFooty (AFL) Herald Sun Sport Herald Sun
If this first game is anything to go by, this Denver-Wolves series could end up being one of the all time great #NBAPlayoffs series. Holy moly!
Essendonâs last three games have been decided by a total of 9 points and theyâve lost none of them. Says something about their mental toughness in high pressure situations #AFLEaglesDons
Kudos to West Coast, and Tim Kelly in particular, who fought back really well in the second half. But also Essendon just went down the tubes after half-time. Astonishing transformation. So many stupid plays. Merrett, Martin and Parish saved them #AFLEaglesDons
The Goldstein 50m penalty, the Jake Kelly effort on the goal line, the Peter Wright weak effort in the pack when Jack Williams took the contested mark and now the Durham downfield all led to West Coast goals. Bombers doing their best to lose this #AFLEaglesDons
Gee whiz, Essendon got out of jail in that third quarter. Played some of the dumbest football theyâve played all year for an extended period and only lost the quarter by 7 points. If not for Merrett theyâd be in a whole lot of trouble right now #AFLEaglesDons
Essendon playing with their food. Playing absolutely horrible football in the third quarter. Terrible skill errors, shocking efforts and West Coast making them pay #AFLEaglesDons
Problem for Essendon so far is that theyâre not utilising their more threatening forward line as well as they could be. Delivery still off. Midfield dominating but didnât getting full bang for buck in the first half #AFLEaglesDons
Bombers much better that quarter but scoreboard probably still doesnât reflect their dominance. +38 disposals, +11 inside 50s & +7 scoring shots. Looking much more dangerous going forward than West Coast so far. Merrett, Durham, Martin, Parish having big impact #AFLEaglesDons
Essendon should really be up by 3-4 goals. Their defence has held up brilliantly but their forward delivery and kicking for goal has left a lot to be desired. Durham, Martin and Duursma have all started very well #AFLEaglesDons
If North lose to Gold Coast next week theyâll be 0-9 which will be their worst start to a season since 1972 #AFLSaintsNorth
Collingwoodâs record in games decided by 6 points or less under Craig McRae is now 15-3-1 #AFLBluesPies
