Not convinced that Hawks can turn it around too much.

I reckon it will be whether we turn up or not.

for this game i don't really care too much who has a big game and who has a poor game. I just want the 4 points. Do not wanna see the sniper prick clarko with a smile on his face at the end of the game.

 

[HBF]

Oh well. I hope you're watching the replay with a huge smile on your face.
Go Blues..

Same.
We'll probably start watching around 7:30ish.
Fingers crossed.

It feels like we have come so far under Teague that i will not accept a Loss tonight, unless its due to very unsual circumstances.

Cannot speak for anyone else here, from my perspective, I love the fact that my mindset and emotional state going into this game is not one of hope, but one of expectation.

I expect us to win tonight by around 3-4 goals (give or take), wouldn't call it arrogance or over confidence, but supreme faith in coach David Teague and his system.

Even our losses this season have been relatively noble, not blowouts like in the past.

It's a strange feeling to have (feeling bullish about the Blue Baggers), it's something I haven't honestly felt in oh so long.

back to the footy - this is just the 2nd game in a critical block of 4. if we can come out of this block at 3-1 we have marked ourselves a proper team again. North, Hawks, Freo are all must wins

I love the name and the avatar Fester!!! Recently, I watched the 1995 victory in Perth, and thought the chap in your image played a very solid game. I reckon our current side plays better as underdogs, so let’s not rule them out against the Eagles either.

always thought the 1993 grand final was lost when dean wallis cleaned up mil right in front of me in the first quarter. ugly ugly ugly act - made the 1999 moment even funnier still wear the scarf i wore that day - and the milham hanna badge from that time

 

[TD2010]

It's OK now.
My friend Captain Morgan Spiced Gold to the rescue.

Nice drop that

It's already the start of the second quarter in WA....no spoilers WA fans...

Sportsbet will give you $126 for Cripps to get 30+ and 3 goals. Should we do it ?

It’s now 200-1

4 players in off injury (one hasn’t played in 12 months). Stratton, Scully can’t hit a target. We need to make a statement here. Our boys love Optus.
