Game Day Round 9: Pies v Dogs

[_Mike_]

About time we start a game day thread.

 

[footscray1973]

Will be one of a narrow win to us, a narrow win to them, a blowout either way, or a draw. I can't see any other result.

Frees will be in our favour, or possibly theirs, we will kick more points than goals regardless of result.

Looking forward to the OTT melts in this thread.

Go Dogs.

Since not having an official Lucky Meal last week didn't work, I have decided to have one this week to reverse the curse. I have ordered from the same fish and chips shop as I did for the Essendon win. Today: a hamburger with the lot, three potato cakes, one scallop and one mussel. A definite winner!

 

[Munnez]

We must be due a better performance this week right ? We weren't terrible last week, need to find a way to get the pressure up to help out the defence.
Inclusion of Bont is a boost hope he is back to near full fitness

 

[ScragCity]

I can't see us losing now that we have Sweet in the side to provide some structure

Comfortable win by 40+ points tonight to get the season rolling.

 

[Kennel Master]

I want Richards to have a big game providing run and accurate kicking from half back.
I want Sweet to provide a contest and give our mids at least 50/50 chances.
I want to see delivery into fwd 50 which isn't just bombing it long to Howe and Moore.
I want us to hit targets and reduce blatant turnovers.
I want us to kick straight.
I want us to win.

That is all.

God I hope Sweety plays well.

So not much at all then KM!

 

[Pagnoccolo C]

Might seem a strange observation but there’s not a single natural forward in our entire selected team.

 

[Kennel Master]

So not much at all then KM!

You would hope most of my list would happen most weeks.
Don't turn the ball over, kick straight and make a contest.

That's not asking too much, is it?

[dergert]

I'm predicting Jordon Sweet will be a late out.

Not at all should be bread and butter type stuff for elite footballers. Yet here we are accuracy is a flip of the coin for our forwards. Even Caleb is committing turnovers when we should reasonably expect that he wouldn't.
Just that kind of year for us this year

 

[Libba39]

Predicting a loss, and maybe a pretty decent one. Seems to be too much going wrong at the moment and feel Naughts will struggle against the Howe/Moore combo.

Just looking forward to watching Buku and Cleary go around....and NO INJURIES

 

[Dogsbestfriend]

Pendlebury a late out for the pies

Evens it up a bit

Dogs by 22

 

[X_box_X]

Is Pendles a late out?

 

[Bulldogs85]

Is Pendles a late out?

Yes

 

[Dogs_R_Us]

About time we start a game day thread.

Title should include ground and time

7.50 is nearly past my bedtime. Hope the result is worth staying up for

 

[Dogs_R_Us]

Will be one of a narrow win to us, a narrow win to them, a blowout either way, or a draw. I can't see any other result.

Frees will be in our favour, or possibly theirs, we will kick more points than goals regardless of result.

So you have NFI?

 

[Mantis Toboggan]

Dale? I’d argue Naughton is a natural forward too…it just took a little time to find it.

The very VERY dark cloud producing that silver lining is going to be watching a part-time ruck in Darcy Cameron take us to the cleaners instead.

I love these no expectation games
