The Western Bulldogs have opened the 2016 AFL finals series with a 47 point dismantling of the Eagles in Perth.
After going down to Freo in Round 23, the Bulldogs were expected to be easy pickings for the Eagles but even after a slow start to the match, were able to run them down and move on to Week Two.
Bulldogs coach Luke Beveridge (pictured) says with his side playing with plenty of energy and confidence, he never lost faith in his side to get the job done.
