"You put time and 成果/努力 into those guys and they'll get better with every game they play and every season they play."

After losing their first two games, the Bulldogs have not started a season with three straight 敗北・負かすs since 1996.

"In both those games, Melbourne got three tries from kicks and the Roosters only carried the ball over our line once.

"There's been plenty of time and it's a different vibe now. It's a different way it's 解釈する/通訳するd."
