Well done doggies, and Well done Ryan Williams on winning the medal

[diceman]

Good game- Eagles much improved- Ceentrals avg- comp has now officially opened up!

[Sam_goUUUdogs]

A lot closer than it ever should've been, but 2 more points in the bank and that's all that matters.

[goraw]

for the first time, R.Williams is a foe to the eagles

[Big Phil]

how did the twins fare?

Both were servicable, I guess?

Chris finished with 13 disposals and 4 tackles, James had 9 disposals and 2 marks...

Both threw their head over the footy when they needed to and both will be grateful for the 18 day rest before their next game...

Regardless of how Central played, it must have been a massive improvement by the Eagles ...

[Big Phil]

Good to see Delta Goodrem here in the crowd, supporting her Brother Trent and hanging around afterwards with the fans, having photos and signing autographs.

[dedja]

Did she hit the big red button to turn around and watch the game?

[RB]

Hard to convey in words just how much of an improvement that was from the last 4 matches. Hard to see us making the finals though after being 0-5.

[Big Phil]

Did she hit the big red button to turn around and watch the game?

No, but she chose Trent to be on 'Team Goodrem'

[dogs01]

Dogs looked tired at the end of each quarter and through the last. They did really well to hang on.
Great time for a decent break then come out firing against the bays.
I thought it was a great game of ANZAC day football and both clubs should be proud of their efforts.

Thanks mate, I tried my best

[goraw]

what odds the premiers being 0-5 after ANZAC day? like the caviar losing in adelaide?

[sjt]

First two and a half quarters were good, then we attacked poorly into our fifty. Westhoff was very good. Should get off the report. See that type of thing once every game and normally there's no report. Happened to him in the second quarter and he didn't even get a free.
Just glad to get the points. The back line was strong also.
Eagles will make the finals.
Good crowd.

UMPIRES
CD had the best of the decisions for the 1st half
EG had the best of the decisions for the 2nd half
CD scored well when they got them
EG scored well when they got them

Probably the worst rendition of the national anthem I've ever heard. Not sure it was the singers fault though, think it was more a sound system issue. Anyway on the outer it sounded terrible.

As for the game, we were pretty average. Probably played 15 minutes of good football in the second quarter. In the second half our entry into the forward line was awful.

And didn't Jarrad have a huge whinge to them at 3 quarter time. He spent more time with them than he did in his own huddle.

Was about to post on the anthem. Sounded like 2am karaoke! The service was excellent otherwise.

I was expecting something for the kids, given the talking up PhilH gives the Eagles, was disappointed to find nothing.

Good game of footy though, dogs held on well to win. Great time for a rest.
