Reserves
The Reserves continued their winning momentum, putting on a clinical performance and showing great depth across the squad.
The 71-point margin reflected the Bulldogs' ability to spread the load and play team-first football.
James Nicolaci was simply outstanding, kicking three goals and being named among the best in a performance that had class written all over it. Whether it was clean hands, strong marking, or composure around goal, James delivered.
Connor Thompson, Finlay Cousins, and Jack Keating set the tone early, while Ben Taylor, Damien Holmes, and Lucas Chihotski provided consistent drive.
Nine individual goal kickers underscored a real team performance.
This group continues to build nicely, the pressure is on for spots and that's exactly where the team wants to be.
