Bulldogs by 12 goals on the rebound after the poor performance against the Saints.They will think they are a chance against us will expect us to run out of fuel tickets in the 2nd half like we have done for the past 3 weeks.......Going to go for the Stynes memorial and will take a good book to avoid the pain once the ball is bounced.

Dogs will smash us.

The game that's got me trembling is the Hawks at the G. I still wake up in a cold sweat from the memory of that 3rd quarter in round 1 or 2 was it last year. Scarring it was.

RR that will be nothing compared to this year, start thinking 186 or 196 or 206

Anyone who thinks we will get within 10 goals is utterly delusional. Going to be such an embarrassment especially due to the fact it's the big fellas tribute game. Not even the memory of his incredible spirit and determination will be enough to inspire us. I say dogs by 80 odd. Can only see us beating GWS this year and only marginally.

I found a substitute for Bex, it's called ice cream with hot fudge and lots of cream, chased down with a bottle of Jack Daniels and a lie down

I respect that.

Call me crazy but I reckon we are a good chance to beat the dogs.

I would absolutely love some of what you're smoking.... what is it? Must be good sh**

When was the last time we played the Dogs at the G?

The last I remember is the game where we came back from being about 40 points down, and White got us in front with a goal from the 50m line.

Edit: 2010. When the umpires wore pink, clashing with us. Lost by 4 points. I was holidaying in the USA at the time - almost thankfully.

Relax, we've got this

Nice, Sloonie. I did have a chuckle at that. I knew that statement would bite me in the ass. I think Bex and a couch should come with a melbourne membership.

when the dogs were up and about, they were one of the better kicking teams in the league. Sure they have dropped off a bit since then, but they still have much of the same cattle that will play on SUnday. They will no doubt find it when they play us, given we like to provide our opposition with at least 5 metres space.

Why is it so hard for us to man up? We continually give the opposition 1 to 2 metres head start and they murder us every time.

Dogs in a canter.

A bottle of Jim Beam and a blindfold mightn't hurt either. Can someone wake me up when we've uncovered or recruited a gun midfielder or two please. The losses might not be quite as painful if we aren't gettin smacked there pretty much every week, especially against mediocre opposition. I think they refer to it as 'hope' or somethin

Hmm i think we will smash the bulldogs

Its what we have done for the last 4 years (fire when everyone thought we had no bullets left)

then lament for the next month which is also what we do

too many players in our list are NOT up to AFL standard

Neeld will want to keep his job and get a broom , a very big one

Bailey failed miserably to acknowledge we even had a broom

Bailey looked at age and not on impact gong forward (Junior)

We should have picked up Dylan Grimes when we had the chance

At least the kid has a red hot go

The most embarrassing will come in Geelong.

I'm not so sure NSC

Kardinia Park (Simonds Stadium or whatever they call it now) is one of the narrowest grounds in the AFL if my memory serves me right. So at least the boys wont have to run as far around the boundaries. Might last 2 and a half quarters or even 3 on this ground!!

Yeah that and the Carlton game are gonna get real ugly real fast. 186 could be in trouble.

Dogs won't smash us. They'll win, but they're about on par with the Tigers so...

Oh, right.

I reckon Neeld was right to be worried at his press conference about supporter morale. GWS showed more in a couple of quarters than we have this year.

The Dogs will thrash us. In fact, GWS and Gold Coast are going to really put us under pressure (GC almost beat us late last year if I recall rightly).

Just ugly.

Cheer up Boys. Sunday night the mood of this forum will be a little better. Melbourne will definitely beat Bulldogs. This is a statement game for Neeld and his team (our team). A flogging is not acceptable.

it sure is ugly Ned! will turn around though. Dees have enough youth to pull us through this one in the second half of the season. In the past when we've been in similar situation the players were reaching the end of careers but this new batch it's the start.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
