Welcome to the [Sir Doug Nicholls Round](https://www.afl.com.au/sir-doug-nicholls-round)!
both [GWS](https://www.gwsgiants.com.au/news/1548220/sitting-as-one-our-2024-indigenous-jumper) and [The Western Bulldogs](https://www.westernbulldogs.com.au/first-nations/2024-indigenous-guernsey) have some amazing indigenous guernseys and have close relations with some incredible indigenious and first nations communities, check out [GWS's here](https://giantsfoundation.org.au/what-we-do/giants-community/giants-harmony/giants-walkabout/) and [the bulldogs' here](https://www.westernbulldogs.com.au/foundation/programs/koori-leadership-project)!
Many thanks again to u/TheGreatJelBeano and the teams at r/westernbulldogs and r/GWSGiants for the resources
Our last month and a half have been shocking to have lived through but to put things into perspective we could easily have beaten Geelong, Freo and Hawthorn. We do that and we'd be second on the ladder. Its frustrating but its hardly climb in a warm bath with a razor blade panic stations yet like everyone's been saying
Remember though, we came within a kick in our loss to the Cats. Only just gave up the last four goals late against Freo. Came close to winning some of the other games.
We aren't a bad side, we're just inconsistent.
The typical nervous sickness I get from a Bulldogs game mixed with the sickness of the absolute state of this game is pushing me to the edge. I don’t think I’m gonna make it to the end.

Man that stadium looked empty
Dogs about to keep Carlton out of the 8 again
Bevo still needs to go.
I'm glad we won, now let us never speak of this again.
Agreed. This doesn't count for the rivalry.
Alright, which of the upcoming games should I watch; St Kilda vs Fremantle (?) or Brisbane vs Richmond?
Cack attack
No
Depends if you like blind bats or felines more
 A win’s a win but…
Yay.
Starting to not like the bulldogs purely because of my footy tips. The most unpredictable team of all time
How do you think us fans feel?!
My best friend is a dogs supporter and I feel her pain. She still wants Bevo gone and I don’t blame her lmao
Your best friend is very wise. Bevo needs to go.
Low key probably our best win for 2-3 years. Just a great all round team effort
Best win with 22 behinds? Idk man 😂
Yes. We’ve lost plenty of games when we’ve kicked much straighter.
We have barely beaten a top 8 side for a long time
Nah surely that win against the Dees where Jamarra had 5 a few seasons ago.
Probably since then yeah. Fair call
bull-dogs BITE and bull-dogs ROAR
Happy with the win, but that was a goddamn train wreck. 8 goals 22 points holy hell
6 posters tbf
I'll take it.
That was a goddamn tough watch.
Bulldogs aren’t the winners. They’re the least losers.
Alexa play a little too late by jojo
Greene is looking like an absolute petulant child out there.
Downhill skier.
[удалено]
Can't and won't disagree!
An impressive winner over a top 8 team is crazy considering our last 1.5 months.

didge player hit the brown note because gws have fucken shit the bed
Should of been a free kick for Tony Greene kicking it for no reason
And not just a little kicking into the stands
Great to get the W
OOOOOOOHHH BANG
That felt like watching a St Kilda game.
Jesus Christ. Tonight’s upcoming games could be worst that this. We’ve done nothing to deserve this.
Just switched the game on. Yuck ahha
It's Swans flag to lose now
I'd call us dogshit. But that would be an insult to dogshit tbh
This doggies win is starting to look alright from my boys
Hahhaha go Dogs!
[удалено]
38% scoring accuracy 💀
Junk time scoring let's go
just joined in, jeez the crowd is empty
~~Sack~~ Back Bevo
Bevo Playing 5D chess
Just end this fucking game already
I’m done tipping in this sport, shits fucked
Same man… same
JUH goalkicking has regressed didn’t know it could get any worse
Quick sign him for another 5 years!
21 behinds is nutty.
Trying to set a record or something
Woooo 22
What is JUH adding to the team atm?
Unfortunately, he is a confidence player, and the 2 week personal break has set him back a bit. He was looking good before then
melbourne and essendon need to win urgently we cannot as a reasonable society allow collingwood to be top 4
I haven't been watching, what the fuck happened here?
yes.
Eye candy, fuck GWS
The orange puddle strikes again 🍊 💦
We'd be so fucked if the Bulldogs decided to be more accurate than 7.21
How about 7.22?
The orange kiddy pool today
I love trying to tip the fucking western bulldogs. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Serious point, our defence is obviously quite good, and that's been a big problem for us.
We've helped you out a lot in that regard today
This game has been coughing baby vs hydrogen bomb, except the hydrogen bomb missed its target by an entire continent
It’s a real saturation bombing situation
Lol how were GWS flag favourites?
Same way Carlton was
Ironically we would have likely done better without the weight of that expectation.
They're not, but somehow they're equal second with Collingwood
Just tuned into what seems to be the shittest game imaginable. AND IVE SEEN SOME TERRIBLE GAMES.
i dont even underrstand how gws looks this bad
Every time they play a good team (and Bulldogs) they play badly. I don’t know why everyone rates them.
I've just tuned in. Is there a force field across the goals or something? What is going on with the Bulldogs?
Bulldogs special
yes
First time watching us?
Bulldogs are about to beat a top 8 team and I somehow rate them worse than I did before the game
Is it a shite night in Sydney or something? Why is the stadium look so sparse?
Yeah it is freezing and wet today
Aye that's sucky, I feel like the giants play better in front of a crowd, regardless of the supporter base obviously.
They keep saying it’s wet weather, but dunno.
Been raining
Bummer
Hopefully form picks up next week, we have a winning streak at GMHBA to keep
Tomohawk has his "break selwood's record for most games for the club" game next week
It's incredible that so many points have been scored. If it was even 50% accuracy it would have been decently high scoring
Yay Naughton
That lady is genuine pain
Imagine in Naughto missed
Would be an important point at least
Will freo saints be worse than this, only time will tell
I can’t see how it would be
Christ. The only thing more embarassing than kicking 6.21 must be losing to a side that kicked 6.21.
Watch us lose to these bums next week
Is Riccardi normally this poor?
He looks lazy asf most times I watch them
He's been subpar this year, better last year
There's still time to kick more goals than posters Edit: Yes lads! 7 goals, 6 posters!
Nooooo my multi
Bont seals the deal with a heroic captain's behind
Bulldogs could win the flag or finish 12th and I wouldn’t be that surprised either way
Those 21 points are what’s keeping the dogs in front
Even the Bont isn't immune
This game is so boring that my uncles fallen asleep on the couch after having 2 coffees
Are GWS really contenders though? They’ve looked like shit for a month straight
We're cooked. Which is saying something this early on.
Not anymore
Dropped off significantly
Yeah, nah
Uncle Howdy now interrupting the Kayo broadcasts
LET ME IN 
Both teams should lost percentage and points for this performance, and be stripped of future draft picks
This is priority pick material
was hopping that was a Whale return but oh well
kayo jumpscare
You know it’s bad when the game is nearly over and there’s less than 1k comments on this thread
Can’t get over how often dogs going forward kick to West.
Can't wait for the edit of Bulldogs 20 behinds ranked. I think the one off Jamarra's shoulder is probably #1
Bont’s had a big game, blocking for teammates. That’s all well and good but how the fuck does that help his fantasy score?
Who gives a fuck about fantasy
bit late to the game, why are there no supporters….?
You haven't missed anything
it’s a home game for GWS and it’s fucking empty
Why is kayo always buffering
It's been atrocious for me today
And somehow the dogs are gonna gain percentage from this...
I think we've just dethroned Lions vs Suns for worst game of the year ...
This is the worst game of the year. I’m calling it now
Is it crazy to say Sam Darcy could be the best player in the league within the next two season?
HANDY
it did rain a tiny bit in sydney today but how are gws skills so bad
Hogan looking like Fred Fanning out there with 3 goals tonight
TWENTY???
6 goals 20 is insane
handy 20th point
Just gonna come out and say that I think this game is one of the worst for the season so far
Bedford playing himself out of a spot in the starting 22
1 Nick Haynes, please.
Awesome by Marra there.
Harmes is the dogs best forward
Did not expect to be liking Harmes this much mid season
Literally pushed him under the ball into the mark, uncontested really.
Second lil helmet fella is on the ground, I repeat second lil helmet fella is on the ground 🚨
Karl? Is that you?
What a boring game
Not the shit scoring game I pictured tonight
How did Bedford nearly fuck that up
Terrible handball from Greene, tbf
If this game as bad as the scoreline suggests?
It's like a 6 hour wait at the dentist
For a quadruple root canal, with no anaesthetic.
And you have itchy balls
THEY SAID THE CREAM WOULD MAKE IT STOP
Even worse
Worse
Yes. Just a bunch of almosts and sloppy play from both sides
Was that a goal? Yippee I am very excited I am literally jumping up and down
HOLY FUCK HOLY FUCK HOLY FUCK WE ACTUALLY KICKED A GOAL. ITS A FOOTBALLING MIRACLE
Hall of Fame moment
Oh finally! And who else but the skipper!
On brand goal for this match
NO WAY, THIS IS A MOMENT IN HISTORY
bro just catch the fuckin ball
Even Toby saying finally
Did our absolute best to fuck it up
they tried to fuck that up so bad lmao
Is it possible to get sacked after a win?
Finally
About fucking time
Tried to mess it up.
Finally
This game is giving me psychic damage
How strong were your psychic powers pre game? Presumably didn't see this coming.
Alcohol has blunted my powers
DANIELS COMING ON, I REPEAT DANIELS IS COMING ON
We're honestly playing like a team that should be 14th atm
Have they announced a crowd figure yet? Looks incredibly low on the broadcast
All the crowds on the other side
The typical nervous sickness I get from a Bulldogs game mixed with the sickness of the absolute state of this game is pushing me to the edge. I don’t think I’m gonna make it to the end.
Harden up maybe
Imagine going through all this and then losing. Then remember we lost to the Eagles last year
Agreed, we could so easily fuck this up in the worst possible way
