The Western Bulldogs have been on a monstrous run since getting their core group of stars back on the field and with Adam Treloar likely to return this week, it gets even better. The Dogs have won 4 of their last 5 games, 2 of those by 90 points after starting the season 2-3. They have also taken two straight wins against Geelong at the Cattery, something that not many footy clubs can attest to.
The attack vs defence matchups around the ground are interesting. Geelong are top of the league in Goals per Inside 50 and allow the lowest number of Opposition Points from Stoppages. The Bulldogs defence ranks 1st in Opposition Inside 50’s and they score the most Points from Stoppages of any team in the AFL.
Where I see this game being won is through the midfield, the Cats will be without Dangerfield and Bowes while the Dogs are one of the best teams in the league in Centre Clearances, getting Inside 50 and are extremely efficient in their ball usage.
Take the Western Bulldogs to win 1-39 with some explosive attack pushing the Game Total Over. We have been alternating between Rhylee West and Aaron Naughton on the goalkicking front but this feels like a top spot for West to get 2+. Bontempelli will need to feature heavily to get his team across the line, 25+ touches.
- Western Bulldogs have won 2 in a row against Geelong at GMHBA Stadium.
- 70% of games this season have finished with a 1-39 win margin.
- Western Bulldogs are 1st in Centre Clearances vs Geelong’s defence ranked 13th.
- Rhylee West is averaging 1.8 goals per game but has kicked 2+ in 5 straight games.
- Marcus Bontempelli is the 2nd highest ranked player in the AFL and had 27 + 35 touches against Geelong last season.
Head to Head

The Western Bulldogs returned to the winners circle in spectacular fashion last weekend with a 127-36 drubbing of the Essendon Bombers at Marvel stadium. It was their equal second biggest score of the season and largest win margin just surpassing the 90 pt margin against Port Adelaide two weeks ago.
Rhylee West booted 4 goals but all eyes were on Bailey Dale who racked up 49 disposals in the game with 37 kicks and 12 handballs from the halfback line, breaking the previous club record of 47 disposals in a single game.
The Bulldogs defence held their opponent from scoring a goal up until the 17th minute of the 2nd quarter, their full ground defensive strategy on show for the whole league to see.
