Not a surprising result. I thought WC would enjoy the greater freedom in the midfield and the Bulldogs running game would falter under real pressure.
Having said that, I didn't think WC played particularly well and it all comes down to their malfunctioning forward line. Hansen gave them more structure but his kicking for goal is atrocious. It doesn't hurt as much when they get as many chances as they do but when the game is close, it will prove costly. Hansen and Lynch combined must put out at least 5 OOBOTF from set shots per game.
Just as I was sure WC would smash WB, I predict Adelaide to thump them by 7 goals.
