It's September. My first choice is anyone, anywhere.
But that said I still think this is the season where the premier gets lucky and plays the right teams at the right time.

GC have to win 1 of their last 2 to make it, both wins give them top 4 chance
Yep. But I’ve got the losing to port who will want to send off boak and Hinkley.

It’ll be us, weak mindset, vanilla coach. Already feel like it’s inevitable the dogs whack us and we end in 9th.

Statistically how much do Milestone games actually change the expected result? And sides get up for it? Like it feels more often than not when people think a team will get up because this player has played 300 games or so and so is retiring they don't.

Somehow I'm even more confident in Brisbane beating Geelong if they play off in a final compared to last year's prelim. If the good Lions turn up.

Last time I looked Fremantle were a top 8 team. Dogs are 0 and forever against top 8 teams not named GWS.
Besides, Fremantle have only been "Dockering the bed" for 3 decades...the Puppies have been doing the equivalent for 100 years.
If the Bulldogs win today, then next week will play out like almost all of our games against top 8 teams this year. Close early then the other mob gets a run on to take a 4 to 6 goal lead. Dogs rally and get within a goal entering time on in the last quarter only for an iffy umpiring decision or a mental meltdown by one of our "bottom 6" to go against the Dogs and result in a 1 to 2 goal loss.
Evidence -
Round 2 v Collingwood
Round 4 v Fremantle
Round 9 v Gold Coast
Round 11 v Geelong
Round 18 v Adelaide
Round 19 v Brisbane
Congratulations Fremantle on your finals berth.

I worried about how they'd go against the Dockers because of that but they passed the test, and they've got more to come back.

Nah, the nervous week was the one we just had.
We blew that so now this week is just resignation that we've missed again.

The worst part is going to be the void between Sunday and Wednesday where we are still technically in the 8, but waiting on the inevitable Gold Coast beating of a banged up Essendon to make our demise official.

But you played them in Victoria? Gold Coast play Port in Adelaide in what will be the final ever match for Travis Boak and Hinkley. Port will be very motivated to send them off with a win. I think Gold Coast will win as Hardwick will have them well prepared, but it won’t be an easy a match as it appearsWe smashed Port today. Huge failure by Gold Coast if they lose that next week
TBH, not really , not for me anyway .
I ve always maintained we needed to beat Brisbane to make it as we are no chance against the dogs.
And considering just how badly the team shat the bed AGAIN on Fri night I genuinely be surprised if it’s anything less than a 10 goal hiding on Sunday.

Bombers are rubbish. 1 point or 10 goals they lose to GC. GC will make it. Dogs Dockers elimination game.

I remember hawks 2013 draw. Yeah they got all other 7 of the 2012 finalists in the 1st 7 games.
Your team made a grand final In 2012. Were you supposed to get a soft draw and have all bottom 4 sides twice?

See you on the 9th green at 9
