Dogs have a fantastic record in Tropical Latitudes. Jack Macrae plays brilliantly. Dogs by 30 plus.

Form lines are pretty close. Both teams started with 2 losses. Overall Adelaide have played 4 of the top 5 for a 2-2 result. Bulldogs have also played 4 of top 5 for a 1-3 result. Bulldogs had a tougher early draw and have travelled a lot with 3 interstate games in 5 weeks. Confident we can...

Why? I concede Melbourne had the better of this stat in the 2 earlier encounters, but it is not a traditional weakness of the Bulldogs. They have also added Martin, Dunkley and Treloar who didn't play in either of the earlier games. The Bulldogs smashed Port Adelaide, who are normally good in...

interesting that apparently only Melbourne can improve on the round 19 game. Personnel wise Melbourne have Bowey for Hunt as the only change. Bulldogs have Bruce replaced by Gardner allowing Schache to play forward Garcia repaced by Dunkley Richards replaced by Wood Ugle-Hagan replaced by...

We have improved the personnel on our previous meeting and Melbourne are basically the same (Bowey for Hunt is the only change) For us Bruce replaced by Gardner with possibly Schache moving forward Ed Richards replaced by Easton Wood Riley Garcia replaced by Josh Dunkley Jamarra replaced by...

Would certainly expect Keath to take Big Maxie any time Maxie goes forward.

The game is really set up with both teams looking fantastic in the respective prelims. Both teams supporters feel they will win if their respective plays to their best. Realistically, both can only play up to what the other team permits. Will the Dogs be defensively minded enough to slow down...

Yet they still lost to the Bulldogs, who lost one of their best talls in the first 10 minutes.

He is probably serious, but it also explains why he is a random anonymous internet poster. There is clearly no strategic understanding of how the Bulldogs play.

So you are telling me that Hunter kicked the ball downfield and then played for a high contact free. It what universe is it OK for Hunt to tackle in any form after the legal disposal?

As legitimate contenders they should be able to generate their own urgency. Both teams well aware that this game sets a tone for other clashes that might include a very big final.

Dogs do have a great record against the Tiges. Only loss since 2013 was a 3 point loss in 2018 when we blew several chances including a set shot in the last 30 seconds. have won 5 of last 6. Jack Macrae loves playing against Richmond.

Be honest. Like me you don't care much about who is the best team, you just want the win. I'll take a win anyway I could get it, but hoping most for a fast start. That seems the best formula for victory this season and particularly for us. We have been the first to 4 goals and led at quarter...

Fancy Hawthorn complaining about the umpiring in a pre-season game. Perhaps it will help them infringe less in a real game. The only shocker I noticed was the one against Impey for running too far. The count was what 24-13. My question is why did they give Hawthorn 13:)

You do realise that it doesn't matter how much you denigrate the Bont, it won't make Merrett play any better. There is an old adage that you never improve your own by attempting to tear down what belongs to others.

More likely that you need to let it go. Bont was the influential player when it really mattered and as a result the reigning premiers got the points.

You need to understand that more touches does not equal a better game. Libba had the better of Merrett despite having less touches. He also had more impact with his touches. McLean, Daniel, Dale and especially Dalhaus all had better games than Merrett. Wallis and Murphy contributed, although...

I am confident tonight. We owe the Cats a trouncing.

On my reading your predictions were all about the Bulldogs losing. Perhaps you should maintain that for 2017. It worked really well.

Surely you jest. Franklin and Roughy have not got near it. You don't get frees to even the game up. Taylor? Hudson and Minson are winning all the centre taps and Minson is giving great advantage with his.

Anyone who disagrees with Glen Jakovich will almost certainly be correct (on any topic).

Yes the Cats were just too good. The Dogs can regroup after what was a disastrous last quarter.

I am excited but somewhat bemused by the extreme confidence of Geelong fans and the trepidation of Doggie supporters. It seems that Geelong expect the win to be a formality and Bulldogs are just hopeful. Geelong have monstered their last 4 opponents which include one current top 8 and 3...

Tommy Gun Williams will take Riewoldt without the slightest doubt which leaves Lake on Kosi and Morris and Hargrave to cover Milne/Schneider. Expect ex Dog Shane Birss to play the defensive forward on Gilbee.

Anything that occurred in 2003 is irrelevant. Our form was way down the Rhode. I think we were allowing the coaches box to be under the control of Peter PotHole.

Has round 10 uncovered anything new. Craigie’s Crows may be suffering the let down from inexperience and they have certainly found it difficult to kick with accuracy. But only 9 goals against the weakest defence in the league is a concern. A points victory (or is that behinds) for the Crows who...

This game is set up to give Richmond a real chance. The Port Adelaide match was a draining encounter with many players literally out on their feet before the last break. Sydney may struggle to reproduce this week after such a titanic encounter. Richmond had a far easier mission and had their...
