Prediction Changes Blues v Dogs Marvel 28/3/25 7.40 PM

[Werewolf]

Speaking of changes, have any of last week's umpires been dropped to the VAFA?

 

[House_of_Dahl]

or do they put Young to Darcy where he will be eaten alive but allow Weitering to have much more impact.

This what I am thinking. Weitering is a gun but is also 195, his main weapon will be zoning off and intercepting so he may as well play elsewhere and still do that.

Nathan "nothing-to-see-here" Williamson was running around last night at Marvel.
That probably tells you all you need to know. Or maybe the cupboard is just bare.

 

[MaxiBont]

Our smalls weren’t being too influential anyway, they tried hard but didn’t impact the game much.

I felt it was noticeable we were too small against North and I personally feel that Carlton aren’t the fastest across the ground.

To me, the selection of the talls aren’t that much of an issue.

 

[Struggle]

Best way to counter Weitering is to go through his man
He had no answer for JUH after quarter time last year

Put Darcy on him and challenge Weitering to compete for a ball out of his reach

 

[VitalDread]

Feels like one too many talls for me. Would rather have one of buku or JOD out for Poulter.

Dolan can count himself very lucky too. Not a slight on him at all but his body doesn't look ready.

Poulter didn't really do anything to warrant a call up IMO
his last two weeks have been pretty avg in VFL

Poulter again kicked it OOF from a set shot never again for me with his kicking

him and i share the same kicking accuracy

You want Weitering on Darcy because he is always forced to leave his man anyway to cover up for the rest of the defence.

 

[Mantis Toboggan]

Has anyone been to Footscray Bowls Club to watch a game? Thinking of going tonight but don’t want to be stuck watching a 14” black & white tv with 30 others.

Anyone know if it’s any good?

Agree, and the alternative is Weitering sticks on Darcy which should open up Naughton.

The Station Hotel would be a good choice.

 

[Bulldog Brent]

I have two tix tonight - albeit junior. My kids have pulled out leaving me solo. PM if keen.

 

[Pencil case]

Everyone rejoice. Today marks another day we get to witness Sam Darcy play football. What a time to be alive.

 

[Bulldogs85]

Can’t wait for tonight

Is that Footscray - Yarraville ? good facilities

Footscray , on Ballarat rd , old club , not as good as above but atmosphere should be ok.

Ah , my old base for my newspaper empire back in the sixties .
The memories - the six o’clock swill , selling the Sporting Globe , Pix and Post to blokes that had been very very thirsty and not bothered with any change that I may have or not offered

 

[JTCWBFC]

Can’t wait for tonight

**** how good

 

[dogwatch]

Can’t wait for tonight

Why do I feel like a VB after watching that clip?

I mean Ballarat Rd. I’ve been in a few times but never for a game.

And if you ask someone if they'd like a "Pinky" now they'd probably smash you in the face.

Looking forward to your review MT

I had all the businesses at the top of Geelong & Millers Rds in my round. I kept asking the newsagent to give me more Woman’s Weekly’s, Woman’s Days and New Ideas, the office girls and typing pools in those places couldn’t get enough. I’d run out at the first place I went to
OK, I’ll give you 2 more, I’m saying no give me 10 more of each. Couldn’t convince him, it gradually crept up but not as many as I could sell, I’d still run out early

The tips, Christmas slings, gifts, etc were worth more than he paid me.
Then I’d spend heaps on comics at his shop anyway

Poor Sam. No pressure!

Eats it for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
