Poor kid.

If only he knew the heart break that awaited him in the many years to come

Well, admittedly I didn't read the fine print, but I did learn rather quickly that life is much more difficult for fair weather sailors.

 

[Pusswah]

I have a feeling with 0-3 up for grabs, both teams see a chance for a big win, and this could get real nasty and spiteful when the chips are down.


If we're lucky.


And if Longmuir doesn't give one of his inspiring speeches during a break.

If we kick the first few, it could be an easy win.

If we let them start strongly, it will be a tough game.

I can't get excited about this game, that loss last year really burned itself into me. WTF?
I feel like we're going to win but unconvincingly.
What would a good win look like?
1. A brand of football that proves we're capable of getting our s**t together - fast, free, dominant, winners around the ground.
2. The backs delivering like they have shown they can in the past - reliable, coordinated.
3. Some of our stars having kick-ass games - Jackson, Serong, Brayshaw, Bolton.
4. Amiss and Treacy getting among some serious marks and goals - 3+ each.
5. Winning by 10 goals plus.

I don't think any of the above is dreaming. It's where the club itself has been projecting us to be for the past couple of years.
2025 - deliver or die.

Plus no major injuries to our players and no suspensions.

The urge to smack HR in the kisser will be overwhelming but our players need to resist the temptation.

Too much at stake for us to be sucked into all out brawls.

Absolutely agree, have to be on top of them and quieten the crowd down.

I’m looking forward to the crowd screaming “BALL” and “FIFTY” on a loop.

So according to the presser

JL: This is just another game
WC: This is so much more than any other game

No wonder they always come out firing against us. It really is their grand final for as long as they’re at the bottom.

And they keep saying the Western Derby is our GF.

 

[Yeti]

We'll win this.

We're not playing well enough to expect 50+ points but 30+ should be the minimum expectation.

So Freo 66 definitely WC 36.

 

[Bicco]

I picked Carlton this week because I thought 'at some point these guys have to pull their finger out, get their sh!t together and put a win on the board'. I picked us for the same reason. Ugh.

Again shows just how out of touch the nail biter is.

 

[mattis117]

Really need a dedicated match day thread for this, cmon mods, should be converting the preview thread into match day thread right?

Anyway, sense of dread leading up to this, but it's peak dockery to come out and perform well in a scenario like this. That's all I got.

[hoss]

I've been looking for the game day thread for the last two hours. Thought I was going crazy.

[hoss]

So JOM and Wags out. Big opportunity for Raz.

[Randomizor]

The lack of gameday thread really does point to people having just given up trying

 

[Perfect Purple]

I hope both Raz and Voss put in good games.

 

[ImperialPurple]

Predictions
WC by 21 (at least I have the childish satisfaction of calling them toilet)
We work Harley Reid into form for RG medal with 30 + 3

Yes I’m a sad-sack pessimist.

The enthusiasm will come back pretty quick if a few wins happen.

Depends how we play tbh. Winning playing a dour game style probably isn’t going to be putting bums in chairs.

 

[kingswood71]

I am excited, but not excited.
Strange feeling.

 

[Perfect Purple]

Are there many Docker supporters at the game?

 

[Randomizor]

JLo just tell the boys they have a license to kill and let them run wild
