Follow his emotions over the next hour. And they can hold the ball.
A missed snap, another poor Stringer set shot. 3rd quarter (1:00 remaining) GWS 9.7 (61) vs Bulldogs 9.6 (60) INCREDIBLE goal to put the Dogs within one point. 3rd quarter (11:30 remaining) GWS 7.5 (47) vs Bulldogs 7.6 (48) Toby Greene on the end of an intercept, has a yard and takes it, finds Patton deep in the paddock who turns around and boots the goal! This is destined to be decided in the very last moments. And Ward is back on the bench, albeit in his tracksuit, the TV tells me. That’s been the pattern of the night. Good sign for the Dogs, who need the game to remain open to bridge the gap, which is only eight points.
Oh, Johannisen that was sensational. But they’ll keep coming, be sure of that. Which suggests there’ll be another twist soon enough. A fine contested mark by Lobb, who is going to be a superstar. He should be able to bounce back against Bulldog’s Tim English, who had just 10 hitouts against St Kilda’s twin towers Ryder and Marshall last weekend. The roar from the away support inspirational. Final score - GWS 12.11.83 defeated by Western Bulldogs 13.11.89. Two really bad losses and sitting on the bottom of the ladder.

What do you reckon? FOOTY. One of the biggest bombshells has landed ahead of this year’s AFL trade and free agency period, with Greater Western Sydney star Zac Williams confirming he will leave the club. We had Sub-Saharan Africa last week. In Round 2, the Dogs had just 40 per cent disposal efficiency (from 40 entries) inside their forward 50. 70. Soak it up, our game doesn’t get better than this. But I just hope that both sides can show up and perform, for the sake of this “modern day rivalry”. Bulldogs goal!
Bont sets up the surge from centre half forward, but it is a behind when Johannisen sprays it from 50. Lift, fella. Neither team has disappointed; total commitment to the cause. But they remain behind by five points. Scott Dare has a good point on twitter. The first in the ruck, with Todd Goldstein dominating not only in the air but around the ground as well. Another lunge on the wing, bodies everywhere. We’ve got 15 minutes, let’s have a chat. Defending they will show at the Dogs forever if they win this. Phew. Hoooooold.

It was as much fight as the Giants showed, comfortably beaten by a desperate Bulldogs team, who responded to a disappointing opening two rounds to win 8.9 (57) to 4.9 (33). 4th quarter (16:40 remaining) GWS 11.8 (74) vs Bulldogs 10.6 (66) And it does!
