Dogs coach lays down challenge after epic win

They obliterated St Kilda , but Luke Beveridge wants the Bulldogs to do one thing to prove they are a legitimately strong side.

“We were pleased for . He doesn’t covet necessarily kicking half a dozen like he did. He does all the team things,” Beveridge told reporters after the game. “Naughts got on the end of a few and he kicked pretty straight too, which was fantastic. Our accuracy just takes the heat off a bit as far as scoreboard pressure goes.”

“It’s a bit of an unknown at the moment, he’s got a few things to take care of back home. With these personal assignments, you’ve just got to be sensitive to the privacy of Marra and his family,” Beveridge said.He praised Bailey Dale and Jack Macrae for their performances after both entered the game fighting for their spots in the side.

“We saw the Bailey Dale tonight as a high defender when he was first moved there, obviously he’s got an All-Australian jacket, but you’re never sure whether he can reproduce his best form. Beveridge said Laitham Vandermeer had passed a concussion test but was subbed out anyway because the Bulldogs did not want to wait until midway through the final term to activate Ryley Sanders.
