Match report: Giants knock off Dogs to confirm top-four credentials
May 22, 2016 5:59 PM
GREATER Western Sydney has shrugged off the early loss of two defenders to outclass the Western Bulldogs by 25 points at Spotless Stadium on Sunday.
Led brilliantly by hard-nosed co-captain Callan Ward, defender Heath Shaw and star forward Jeremy Cameron, who kicked five goals, the 15.8 (98) to 10.13 (73) victory consolidated the Giants' spot in the top four.
The home side lost Matt Buntine (concussion) and Tim Mohr (hamstring) in the opening term, with Bulldogs midfielder Lin Jong likely to come under scrutiny from the Match Review Panel for his bump on Buntine.
But it mattered little as Ward, Stephen Coniglio, Tom Scully and Dylan Shiel capitalised on the dominance of ruckman Shane Mumford to set up the comfortable win.
