[JackFlash]

The Dogs will be too good at Marvel for the inconsistent Dockers...Dogs by 35points.

 

[Zevon]

Might end up with egg on my face but I reckon the Dockers can surprise a few by rolling the Dogs in this one.

 

[Xtreme]

Fremantle by a Clive Waterhouse 40 points.

 

[Sully90]

Freo by 6 goals.

 

[My Tilly]

Freo rucks will get on top.
Reckon their midfield matches up well on the Dogs.
As always, comes down to how Freo start the game.

 

[Mofra]

Might end up with egg on my face but I reckon the Dockers can surprise a few by rolling the Dogs in this one.

Post-bye sides are 0-8 this season. I'm really worried by this trend

 

[timokane]

Can go either way this game but im tipping Freo win it by 7 points

 

[Dazb86]

Reckon Freo gets up. We haven't played well in a while

 

[BallaratBulldog]

Dogs have no backline

The dogs are soft as butter when the chips are down.

Freo are coming for them, and the dogs will yelp all Sunday bloody Sundy.

Freo by 5 goals, pulling away.

 

[SugarHealey]

Dogs have no backline

You mean no backbone don't you.

 

[SugarHealey]

Post-bye sides are 0-8 this season. I'm really worried by this trend

Bontempelli will be back to soft mode again after his holiday.
Naughton won't fire a shot in anger, and
Mcrae will find another hole to hide in, I think he has a secret tunnel down into Marvels carpark.

Andrew Brayshaw will bury Mcrae
Jackson will be all over Bontempelli and the dogs big men, around the ground.

 

[The Airing of Grievances]

Hard game to tip, Fremantle generally play Marvel pretty well. Dogs might have done better to ask for this one at Mars in Ballarat.
Will be interesting duel between English and and Fremantle rucks. In theory Dacy should prevail at CBs and boundary throw ins and Jackson matches English's round the ground work. Games aren't played on paper though. The Bont is probably the key; he has the abillity to make the winner of ruck tap irrelevant and dominate clearances. If he is in that mood, he dominates Dogs win. A better return from Naughton would sure help their cause.

It won't matter where its played, the dogs play without any bone.

They're the boneless dogs, over the past couple of years.

Freo to whelp em, wherever.

Seems like you hate the dogs not sure the dees are going a whole lot better. Dogs thrashed them in Perth even with nearly all the dogs backline out we should be winning this one at home. Cody to kick 5 and show the dogs were lucky they did not have a pick before the dees when they got Kosi.

I like the Doggies actually, but since they're flag, they need to be swabbed. Jeckyll and Hide stuff. But mostly Hide.

When the dogs are 'on', they score freely, and when they're down, they get shutdown from scoring, and they go into a submissive place. Looking for belly rubs.

Ted Whitten would be cursing from his resting place.

 

[Astro_]

Have little confidence going into this game

 

[My Tilly]

Dogs by 3 goals.

Great to see Fyfe back and quietly gaining a bit of form.

 

[ep2018]

If freo break even in the midfield they will win. If they dont then I imagine the dogs will do to them what they did earlier in the season.

 

[Osho]

Conventional wisdom from hordes tells us that all teams struggle after a bye.

Did 2016 not happen?

Doggies like a week off as much as they like referees fondling their floppy ears and dangling spheroids.

Freo have been up and down like Alvin Purple on his waterbed.

Plus Marvel.

It all points to the Dogs.

Which makes me think Freo have a shot. Dogs are such a wierd mob, and the weird mob always gets out sold by Master Purple.

Though the Dogs hanging rocks may outdo Alvin, just like in the movies.

Hmmm. I'll stick with film history as a guide Dogs by 4.

Really looking forward to this game, shaping up to be a grudge match with all the Rory Lobb

angst.

I fancy Freo's chances btw, Dogs backline looks really vulnerable right now with the awful injury to Jones

[Royalbeagle]

Thanks Gill for doing a deal that doesn’t allow for the game to be shown live on free to air. A tip for you - Australian Rules Football is to be the peoples game - not just the game for people who can afford to watch it via kayo/fox or whatever it is this year.

 

[BallaratBulldog]

Poulter to kick the winner
