Ive always believed [in fairytales].That was the simple but powerful message from rugged Western Bulldogs defender Dale Morris after the clubs drought-breaking second premiership victory.The 33-year-old was an as-always steadying hand in the Bulldogs defence as the 2016 AFL feelgood story defied the might of the Sydney Swans at a heaving MCG.The 22-point win delivered only a second premiership cup to the Whitten Oval trophy cabinet, with the club having to endure so many hurdles since their previous flag-winning year of 1954.In overpowering the Swans, the Dogs broke the leagues longest existing premiership drought.Morris, who tallied 15 touches and four tackles as the Dogs defence held firm against Lance Franklin and Co, said he always had belief he could finally taste premiership success with the Bulldogs.Every year I come into the season believing we can do everything - next year will be the same, Morris said in the jubilant Dogs rooms post-match.To fulfil that dream now is just incredible. Ive been dreaming about this for 12 seasons of footy, and its just incredible.Ive always believed [in fairytales].Optimism comes in varying degrees, and Morris teammate Luke Dahlhaus said the clubs powerful elimination final win against West Coast in Perth was the moment he started thinking a flag was achievable.Its unbelievable, he told ESPN. No, honestly [I wasnt sure Id ever see this day coming], there was some pretty dark times. I wasnt sure how we were going to go this year, but things have looked after us. You just never know, you work hard and it works out sometimes.I think I did [believe we could win the flag this year]. We always believed that - the turning point was going over to Perth and beating West Coast. We were so dominant over there, and then with that finals monkey off our back, we were really, really good for the last three weeks, beating Hawthorn, GWS up there, then today, the odds were against us all the way through.What a story. What history weve made for the club today - this club is amazing and the fans deserve every enjoyment they get tonight.Morris said the satisfaction of winning a flag was made even sweeter by the clubs tough history.Its a premiership - satisfaction is through the roof, he said. Where weve come from, you look years back, with possible mergers, our debt, with everything that happened a couple of years ago, to be here now is just incredible.Its crazy, its unbelievable, Im lost for words but Im so proud of the boys, the whole club, everyone involved, its an amazing experience. Im over the moon.[Winning] means everything [to the club] - its our second one, it means the world to a lot of people.Wilbert Montgomery Youth Jersey .
