Western Bulldogs coach Luke Beveridge remains optimistic despite his team’s 14-point loss to Sydney at Marvel Stadium on Thursday night, as several key players suffered injuries. Beveridge attributed the defeat to missed opportunities and the injuries to Ed Richards (concussion), Anthony Scott (concussion), and Aaron Naughton (knee).

In the post-game press conference, Beveridge praised his injury-hit team for their character and integrity, especially as they closed to within eight points late in the game before Sydney secured their 10th win of the season.

“I thought our players showed enormous character,” Beveridge said. “Despite the bad luck, our players are winners tonight in my books.”

The Bulldogs led in several key statistics, including disposals, inside 50s, clearances, contested possessions, turnovers, tackles inside 50, and shots on goal, but their inaccuracy proved costly. Beveridge emphasized that while the team’s system and game style were solid, their missed chances were crucial.

The injured trio will miss at least the Round 12 game against Collingwood. Beveridge assured that player health remains a priority, with Richards and Scott entering concussion protocols and Naughton’s knee injury hopefully not being as severe as an ACL tear.

Rory Lobb may return to the side, and defender James O’Donnell, who was a late withdrawal due to illness, is expected to be available for Friday’s game.
