He just went back and slotted it and made you (Dunstall) look like an idiot,” commentator Garry Lyon laughed. But he hit the post. Marcus Bontempelli went forward but couldn’t manage to score from the pocket. “They’ve just created pressure for themselves. “He’s kicked them all from 50m or just outside, he’s had to run out on the arc three times to get the extra leg into it and he’s threaded the needle three times from only three kicks.” “He backs himself when he’s got a chance to get his hands on the ball.” “They are the best three kicks for a three-kick player to have three goals,” he said. “He’s kicked three straight, Lobb’s only had the seven possessions and he’s kicked four goals,” Dunstall said. Instead of bending down and rushing the footy for a behind, a “lazy” O’Driscoll opted to go off the deck and accidentally put the ball out on the full. “It’s up to the Dockers to meet this challenge because they’ve got some heat on the ball here the Dogs,” Lyon added. “They are finding the angles, changing the approach and it’s creating space for players to lead into,” Dunstall said. “When they’ve turned it over, they’ve been hurt on the scoreboard,” Dunstall said.

Dog-gone? Bulldogs' hopes fade as Freo finds form (AFL)

FREMANTLE has won its first match in four rounds and kept its top-four hopes alive while making the Western Bulldogs' finals quest all the more difficult ...

That won’t happen, but the veteran midfielder produced another strong showing in what could potentially be his final game in Melbourne. After arriving at the Whitten Oval with a stress fracture in his foot, Sam Darcy was finally unleashed after building form in the VFL across nine games. It was only fitting that the son of a gun made his highly anticipated debut in the retro jumper. 'Mundy four hundy' was a dream many Fremantle supporters had before Monday when games record holder David Mundy announced he is walking away from the game at the end of this season. The Western Bulldogs have been on the record about their interest and the 29-year-old provided them with a taste of what might be to come, booting four goals to catapult the Dockers back into the top-four on the back of the 17-point win. The Dockers had eclipsed their score from last week by four minutes into the second quarter when Lachie Schultz slotted a goal and finished a dominant first half with 58 points on the board – second highest of 2022 – on the back of 61 more uncontested possessions and 44 more uncontested marks.

Darcy shines but Dockers turn to Ali to flatten Bulldogs (The Age)

Western Bulldogs' father-son draftee Sam Darcy was impressive in defence but the Dockers used a poem by Muhammad Ali to torpedo their opponents at Marvel ...

When the Dockers responded with entries, they scored. Sign up for the Real Footy newsletter. When the Dogs did, they scored. The Bulldogs, if they fail to make the finals, face a stinging review. The rebounding red-head has had an outstanding year. Even Lobb appeared surprised when his third goal, from just inside the right boundary, drifted through. The Bulldogs have been seeking a consistent marking tall in defence, and Darcy now shapes as the new generation talent they need. “JL put a little thing up from Mohammad Ali about the Me. We. sort of thing. But his decision to switch play had those same fans briefly concerned for his kick was almost intercepted. He lost his spot last year, but has played in 19 games this season.
