Last season the Bulldogs had six posters (Rd 6), five posters (Rd 11) and four posters (Rd 2).  The most posters other teams scored that season was three.

I think we're all at different stages of belief at the moment in terms of how far we can go in the current season.

The way I look at it is, any wins from this point on are a bonus.
In fact any wins from the end of the home and away are a bonus.
While the 'ride' is still going let's just enjoy it
If it does come to an end at some stage in the next few weeks then hopefully we go down fighting but in any event 2026 has given us a lot to be pleased about...
We've seen the development of some really good young players and some of our older guys have recaptured some previous good form and enthusiasm.
As Fraser keeps saying though, we're not the finished product, and there are still things we need to work on.
All I know is that we will taking some beating, and that is a good thing. I have always said that I yearned for the day we were hard to play against, we are just about there.
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time
2025-Carlton can win the 2025 AFL Premiership
2026-Slow start, we can kick after all, why not?

Talk of Weitering wanting a trade, the club wanting to trade him and/or his alleged demoralising presence in our backline is just baseless "supporter" speculation.

Weitering hates losing games and one-on-one contests but he has never been one to hide his emotions when we win or when one of his teammates does well.

It was quite moving seeing Weiters and Crippa leading the team into the rooms last night  :'(

I believe the Weiters trade talk came about through those speculating that the only way we can get Cody W is to trade 'a Weitering' to get the draft picks necessary. Fuelled by the fact that in the past GW has traded 'names'. So then these cabbageheads put two and two together and come up with cottage cheese.

We'll just have to wait to find out what the club strategy is to land Cody. Buckle up.

Before all that, there was a story about north are throwing huge money at Weitering.

The 2 were logically linked as a result.

Weitering is going nowhere. the club is not that stupid to trade our best key backman with 5-6 years of peak footy.

you build defences around Weitering and Dean.

you dont separate them.

I didn't know they were showing the two Wildcard games on TV here in South Korea. Husband of my athlete was telling me. He scrolled through the channels looking for the baseball and accidentally found it. There's around 190 channels and just had to scroll through.

Cursing I didn't know. Could've watched the Pies lose with a kick after the siren and Carlton win.
