Say, did any of you see this picture on the AFL website?

"Hey, geniuses - the Crows and Saints aren't playing this weekend!"

Dogs can't hit a target to save their lives

 

[bird_man]

I've been saying it all year, dogs are flat track bullies. Haven't been a side in the top
6 and the two side they beat in the top 8 (7&8)
We're interstate sides in Melbourne.

Shows how far off we are though unfortunately, hopefully we bring a better effort in a few weeks.

Watching the Storm play rather than the footy, how much of the scoreline is Dogs poor kicking at goal? Looks like 10 scoring shots to 12.

Luke Darcy always sounds so flat when Dogs are losing.

 

[Diehard Saint]

Players do.

As do we...a weekend to de-stress

Worst commentator going round, god he's cringe worthy

do we play the cats next week?

 

[austinnn]

Just watching the Cats - what does everyone think about Rhys Stanley with a premiership medal and Roo without one?

Yes but he did win that GF sprint with us.

Dangerfield getting a sore hip checked out on the boundary....

Looks a bit proppy too

Might be due for a rest.

We are in for a world of hurt next week. Only hope is if they've got their eye on the week off. :/

Na, he came back on & kicked a bomb goal from the 50m line/boundary line junction off the stoppage....

Freak show

Or they got themselves up for this one knowing it was a 'big scalp'

We need to hunt them like we've never hunted a team before

We need to start well, first & foremost

BT says round 13 2009 was the best game of footy he has ever seen

Same one used every week as far as I know

No our only hope is us bringing our game with us. We have no one but ourselves to blame for our performance. Bring it and we have every shot to win.

They're not as good as what some may think. Fair way off the really good sides

 

[austinnn]

I look forward to every real test we get, we'll learn a lot more about our boys against the Cats than we did as they coasted to another easy win against the lazy Blues.

Bring em on.

It would be pretty handy starting the year with 10 of the first 13 games played being at Etihad Stadium too.....

Spermott annoys me more but its a personal thing

Football IQ.

This 100%.

Two sides to each disposal - one giving & one receiving.

Hawks are rightly lauded for their pinpoint skills, but it's their thinking & positioning when they have the ball that puts them ahead of all teams.

As an extension to this, most players spend 98%+ of the game without ball in hand. Hawks most productive side with this time.
