The Bulldogs had more disposals, marks, inside 50's, clearances (Demons won the centre clearances 13-11) and won the uncontested possession count by 75 but the Demons win convincingly by 28 points.

The Demons had a disposal efficiency I50 of 50% while the Bulldogs went at just 35% I50.

Jack McCrae with 36 disposals, another 30 plus game but had a disposal efficiency of only 67%. Clayton Oliver had 32 @84%.


Dogs bottom players are horrible, the injuries may catch up with them, Mcneil, Butler, R.Smith, Garcia and Sweet who are not up to it, then they have a group, Bruce, Duryea and Johannisen who will never do anything against the good teams but look good against the bottom 8.
Obviously their top end is outstanding but its your bottom 5 that wins you flags

Agree, the Bulldogs are missing best 22 players Stefan Martin, Easton Wood, Adam Treloar and Josh Dunkley at the moment through injury so their depth is being tested.
Johannisen was hardly sighted only having 8 disposals while Bruce popped up and kicked two goals in the last quarter, he only had 4 kicks and kicked 3.1. Duryea did an OK job on Pickett keeping him in 11 disposals, 4 marks and 1.1 while Duryea had 15 disposals.

Ive watched Duryea alot, its going to take alot of other good players in his team for him to be a premiership player

Good to see gold coast players enjoying themselves, i hope for their sake the young players they currently have stick it out incl rankine and lukosius (who is an unbelievable kick).

Been enjoying watching the Bombers this season, even before tonight their kids have shown plenty to think the future looks alright.

Third highest scoring team in the competition now too and they sneak into 8th on the ladder for now. Even before tonight’s win they were 12th and were the forth highest scoring team before going ahead of Melbourne and joining the Bulldogs and Lions on 1000+ points in 11 matches.

The general consensus amongst most Bomber supporters was bottom 4 certainties and a few of the media experts said wooden spoon. I don’t think anyone could have expected the kids to have made such as a immediate impact and that it would take Rutten at least a year to remove the Worsfold stench

Like I said earlier, you guys drafted really well. Kids ready to play straight away.
Huge upside.
