A GRADE
The Bulldogs looked to be at an advantage in the first half but a number of wasted opportunities allowed the McLaren Eagles to stay in touch with the home side. A strong third quater from the visitors saw them right back in the match as the Bulldogs found goals hard to come by.
Coach Brett Giles said at the third term break that the side which drops off in the last quarter will be the side that goes down. Our Bulldogs may not have dropped off completely but the Ealges rose to the occasion booting 6 goals to 3 and found themselves with a one point lead with only minutes to spare. Luckily for the Bulldogs a late snap at goal by one of our senior colts resulted in the teams 19th behind for the match, bringing the scores level just seconds before the final siren.
A draw certainly is a better result than a loss however this match will go down as the one that got away. Time to put the past behind us and look towards the next round - a night time clash with Langhorne Creek.
