    Why do we select Jesse White in wet games?
    So far this year in all the wet games hes had zero impact.

If you read feedback from Bulldogs supporters from previous years the same thing was being noted.

    He certainly has alot of natural talent and athletic ability (which is why doggies supporters were so frustrated with him) but it is debatable whether he can ever get himself in the right mindset to get the best out of himself. At the moment he is nothing more than a fringe player in our squad who could get a game if we have lots of injuries.
    Funny thing is that you could have been talking about Ed Barlow in exactly the same way last year!

    its very cold today and raining. It just started raining today and is forecast to drizzle all weekend. So wont be pouring but will be slippery. I swear all our home games have been in wet conditions this year.

    It's been a killer. The Club would be throwing their arms up in the air. And funnily enough the games at ANZ have both been perfect days. Some big games at the SCG this year which all could have pulled really strong crowds and the Weather has been very very average on a couple of them.

    I've only missed the Pies at home this year. Essendon at ANZ was a glorious day in warm sunshine. Hawthorn at the SCG was a lovely afternoon too (the weather, if not the game). All the rest from memory, freezing and usually raining, varying from on/off showers (Tigers) to full-on downpour (Carlton).

    Maybe that's why the club has been advertising the Bulldogs match next week on TV over this week's game???

    It's always gonna rain more for SCG games than we'd like cos of the nature of Sydney rainfall. For example, today it was drizzly and showery in the eastern suburbs and at the airport but 5kms away there had not been a drop of rain. It's extremely coastal and so the SCG cops it. Conversely, Homebush gets far heavier dew.
