Western Bulldogs vs Greater Western Sydney Giants Preview
With both sides coming off bad Round 2 losses, it’ll be on for young and old this Friday night as another chapter is written in what is fast becoming a serious rivalry between the two clubs.
GWS will be filthy about their loss to North Melbourne last week.
Two goals up in the third quarter, GWS went into cruise control, faded away in the final term resulting in a 20 point loss to the Kangaroos at home.
The Western Bulldogs also went into their match last weekend against the Saints as the favourite but produced a rather ordinary performance going down by 39 points.
Kicking only seven goals for the match, the blow-torch is on Bevo and his men this week to prove they are worthy contenders in 2020.
There’s never a dull moment in a Dogs v Giants clash.
From that famous 2016 Preliminary Final, Toby Greene’s karate-chop on Luke Dalhaus in 2017 and tempers flared in last year’s Elimination Final in which GWS won by 58 points.
I have faith that the Giants can turn it around.
They looked the goods wayyyyy back in Round 1 when they convincingly beat the Cats and you could perhaps put last week as them being a bit rusty.
The Bulldogs, on the other hand, have some troubling signs.
Poor performances in both their games this season against Collingwood and the Saints should be cause for concern.
With the shortened season, every game counts and a loss this weekend could have them writing off the year completely.
Not only do I think GWS will bounce back, but they’ll also bounce back in a big way and the 40+ margin is some of the best value you’ll find this weekend.
