Close to being the tackle of the season just for the fact that it basically won the season for The Dogs.

Too much emphasis on that tackle. The Game should have been over by that stage had Easts taken their chances. But credit has to be given to The Dogs for playing to the refs whistle...thats what won them the game. The El Masri Try...Easts players thought they'd held him up, but without a held call from the ref, El Masri played to the whistle and scored.

In the first half Easts got outside the Dogs umbrella, but they didnt play to the refs skinny 10, and didnt set themselves deeper to adjust, hence over-running those passes when the were in scoring distance.

The Dogs played to the ref's whistle, Easts didnt, and add too much dropped ball, it will go down as teh Grand Final that was lost.

Chokers!!!

Dogs had missed opportunities too.

Ryans tackle wasn't just an ankle tap, he had both his hands around crokers ankles! Great takle, no ankle tap!

We shouldnt have been there in the first place?? LOL.

YOUR ILLEGAL SQUAD SHOULD HAVE BEEN DISBANDED IN 2002!!

We had enough ball to win 3 Grand Finals and yes we choked big time!! It was the only way you were going to win...as the Dogs fans said to me, The Grand Final that wasnt won, but was lost.

Enjoy it with your illegally assembled team.

Didnt the cowboys beat the bulldogs? does that mean you dont deserve it neither.
Also have a good luck at that last cowboys incident, from the kickoff there were 3 players at least 3 mtrs offside, it should never have got to the stage it did.
And if you guys think that the bulldogs played well and thats why they one you are sorely mistaken.The roosters played badly and choked and the bulldogs played well enough to win.

If they played badly...The explain WHY and HOW they deserve to be Premiers??? Fair go - We can only beat whetever rubbish is served up to us mate!! :lol:

This argument is the pick as just the STUPIDEST....of a very stupid bunch!! #-o ...Hmmm - Much like Roosters supporters really, now that I think of it!...Strange that, eh?? :lol:

The bulldogs played poorly and the roosters played worse, thats not to take anything away from the dogs they are deserved premier, they were the best team on the night, if the bulldogs had of played to their potential they would have won by 20, exactly the same, if the roosters had of played to their potential a different result would have eventuated.

Grand final that was won! By the Doggies Grit, passion, determination amongst other things...

Both teams shot themselves in the foot on many occasions. differance is that the Doggies managed better than the Roosters under the cirumstances.

Can you tell me which Dogs player played ordinary?

If it wasn't for Freddy "yes he had a magnificent game" you would have been murdered. good luck 2005, you'll need it

Luck may need to play a huge part for the raiders, the chooks will rely on consistancy

So in essence, what you're saying is - We should have handed back our entire squad on the spot at the end of 2002 & started again should we??

Well...it'd be the only way the Roosters will win crap all for the forseeable future - BUBBYE FREDDIE!!!!

So, OK - I can see where you're coming from! :badgrin:

back in your coop with you mo-fo!!!!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh, it's just........too.....damn.......EASY!!!!! :D
