Game Day Penultimate Rd: Dogs v Hawks in the Apple Isle (14/8)

[random__hero]

14 degrees & a 60% chance of showers during the arvo

 

[bresker]

Tasmania is just Ballarat with more apples and less gold. Equal amount of Winnie Blues and Mocassins.

 

[Hobdog]

Launceston is just Ballarat with more apples and less gold. Equal amount of Winnie Blues and Mocassins.

Being a proud Hobart boy, I need to correct you.

I have no doubt that we will be victorious today.

I asked my Magic 8 Ball: "Will we win today?"

The reply:



That's good enough for me.

Are you home yet? What's for lunch?

Both booked in for the Boags Brewery Tour while the game is on. To avoid detection, have booked under the names Ed Smith and Buku Smith, brothers from a non-Vic hot spot.

Edit: lol, I quoted you before you added Roarke in your edit. The three Smith brothers out on the tear mid-arvo in Launnie!

Are crowds allowed? Are you going?

Tom Mitchell on Fox just confirmed O'Meara a further out for them. Our midfield depth really should be enough on a windy wet day

 

[Jeff 1975]

Need the midfield to get cracking and the backline to rebound with confidence
More goals on the run, set shots are awful
Overall a danger game
Go Dogs

 

[DognBones]

Only 2 acceptable outcomes from this game for me:
1. We win with no injuries
2. We lose narrowly with no injuries

 

[Maverick Dog]

no O’meara and Worpel so they are missing probalbly 7 of their best 10 players. Should be a very easy win against such a depleted side. Clarko is the best coach by a mile but he cannot walk on water

 

[Dogs_R_Us]

Only 2 1 acceptable outcome from this game for me:
1. We win with no injuries
2. We lose narrowly with no injuries

Yeah crowds allowed I’m there to cheer on the boys on behalf of big footy albeit behind a mandatory face mask

I’ve always wanted to do a number on the Hawks since Hodge went around in that Tassie game and sniped our kids all day (2014?) with no repercussions. Thug.

Put the foot down and make a statement. Last week is the last loss I want to see.

Didn't realise O'Meara was also out of their midfield so we can scrap option No 2. No excuses now; if we can't win this we don't fit the bill as a top 4 side.

 

[_Mike_]

I think we should be able to win this one without any huge dramas. If they can't beat Hawthorn with their outs then I think this is going to be an unhappy finals run

 

[Doggies_13]

Now drizzling not sure if it will be much may be slippery early

 

[Northernsoul74]

Now drizzling not sure if it will be much may be slippery early

Should suit us.

R22 2nd v cellar dweller in the lead up to finals, Fox Footy pregame coverage gives us interviews with Tom Mitchell and Clarkson, while the team with the home final/top spot in the balance gets donuts.

F*** Fox Footy.

 

[Mantis Toboggan]

Just had about 10 yellow tailed black cockatoos descend on my garden in West Footscray. That’s definitely a first for me.

Is it a sign?

I swear one of them shouted ‘Go Dogs’.

 

[Libba39]

Should suit us.

Looks like a band of showers will hit pretty much at start time.

Only two places they can beat us is in ruck and with height in backline. We should gave all other bases covered (and then some...)

 

[dergert]

I wonder what Lewy Young would be like after a pre season training in the ruck.
