WESTERN BULLDOGS coach Rodney Eade is not worried about his team's form despite the Bulldogs losing three games in a row for the first time in two seasons.
Speaking after the Bulldogs 28-point loss to league leaders St Kilda at Etihad Stadium on Sunday night, Eade said he believes a win 'is not too far away'.
"We can take some positives out of that," Eade said of the loss to the Saints.
"We had that endeavour and workrate that suggests a win is not too far away."
"If we got blown out of the park today with a lack of endeavour you would start to worry about it."
"But I think most of our problems were in our (skill) execution, which is normally our strength."
"I think the previous two weeks we also had poor (skill) execution but it was more due to us but I think this week it was as much due to the opposition."
Eade also said if the Dogs continued to show the same commitment as they showed against the Saints then things would turn around quickly for the club.
"Even though we made mistakes the guys got back on the horse and they kept persevering," he said.
"And if you bring that endeavour and effort each week - even if you are down on form - then the form will turn around but if you don't bring that to the table it's a bit risky and it's a toss of the coin whether it (your form) does turn around."
