This could get seriously ugly - if they're genuine contenders the Doggies should belt them by 10+ goals

Port Adelaide beat us by ten goals. I’d take that this week in a heartbeat.

 

[Irish BlueBagger]

I'm one to talk considering who i support but even Bombers fans themselves are predicting this will be a massacre.

Apparently the biggest winning margin in the history of the competition was when Fitzroy beat Melbourne by 190 points in round 17 of the 1979 season.

I wonder will this be the game where a record that has stood for approaching the last fifty years will be broken?

 

[voorhees]

dogs will go to work on that percentage boost.

 

[Testekill]

Bulldogs conceeding more than 60 points will be a failure for us defensively.

 

[Xtreme]

Unless Essendon use Easter Sunday as so.e sort of resurrection, the Bulldogs should win this by 100 points or more.

 

[dogs4life45]

I realistically think the dogs could kick 200 in this game. Darcy or Naughton will kick 8+

 

[Dazb86]

We typically belt the Bombers in the Bontempelli era.

Could get pretty ugly.

 

[Donflicted]

Coughing Baby vs Hydrogen Bomb

A moveable object vs an unstoppable force

ETC ETC ETC

 

[windyhill]

I’ll be there as usual !!
Just keep it under 100 boys.

 

[PerthBoy86]

Failure if they don't win by 90+, considering they did twice last season and look better this year.

 

[Bushdid911]

Has any team conceded a 90+ margin to the same team 3 games in a row? Even GWS and GC early on didn't do that. It should finish somewhere respectable I think.

 

[Cam Payne]

Dog by...not sure I can count that high.

 

[Mofra]

We might go in slight favourites

 

[Donflicted]

Doggies fans to have a small win here what is the line you expect to win here so i can load up?

 

[Hawksboy72]

Dogs by 70/80.
Margin will get over 100 then dogs will put the cue in the rack.

 

[Mofra]

Nate Caddy out. Delayed concussion symptoms (Cal Twomey)

 

[Doggy]

Nate Caddy out. Delayed concussion symptoms (Cal Twomey)

Oh dear. He was the one to watch

 

[Bald]

Kako is going to kick 17 goals and the Dons will get up in a close one.

 

[windyhill]

Can’t wait for Tasmania, let’s dilute the product even further.

 

[Boristown]

Bombers are a sneaky chance….









….to keep it within 10 goals.

 

[Vindicater]

So a forfeit is. 60-0 loss right?

Would that be better for our percentage than what the dogs will do to us?

 

[Vindicater]

Dogs by 70/80.
Margin will get over 100 then dogs will put the cue in the rack.

Dogs by 170/189.
Margin will get over 200 then dogs will put the cue in the rack.

 

[JackFlash]

This could be a 100 point win coming up for the Bulldogs, we could be saying "stop the fight " by QTR time?
