GAME DAY

[Whispering_Jack 31,304]

Time to start it, I suppose.

So far its been good with Jesse Hogan kicking 6 at Casey Fields and a few others finding some form.

Guess it will be off to the G soon ...

[Ted Lasso 19,568]

Hoping for a win tonight, bit of confidence back into the group

[deanox 10,058]

A few things in our favour, a few against.

A more settled team than most weeks, a good competitive effort last week, the "shackles" are off and Neil does seem to be giving the players some confidence. Week 2 with the new coach could be good a bit of shock factor has worn off.

Against us is our injuries, and can't take a trick in this regard with key players missing.

I hope, for the players sake more than my supporter satisfaction, that we can snatch a win and some confidence.

I'd like to see Watts continue from where he left off last week and I'd like to see the Frawley generating drive. I hope Clisby, Kent and Terlich can continue their good form. I hope Fitz and Gawn hold their own, in what is arguably our weakest area other than "midfielders".

I haven't watched the dogs much this year. Any thoughts on match ups? Griffen is the obvious one not sure who should go with him.

[Bring-Back-Powell 15,367]

Any late news on Dawes?

[Guest]

Need to assume Minson will win 80+% of the hitouts, because he will. Midfielders need to try and read where he's going to tap it. I'd almost go to the extent of double-teaming Griffin, because on form, he is the best mid in the league. Leave it to the likes of Liberatore and Boyd to beat us; because in all honesty, their team outside of Minson and Griffin is pretty bloody ordinary. Need Dawes or Watts to snag a few.

[Jaded No More 68,976]

I really love Saturday night footy. Lets hope the experience tonight is a bit better than usual.

I have a good feeling we can actually win this.

SEN I think

[ThreeOneSix 954]

We will win because they won't be able to score easily.

We have the best backline in the competition.

So, sit back and enjoy a nice win fellas.

We deserve it, lap it up.

Dawesy goals

Dees up by 10 points.

[Red&BlueBlood 61]

Watts has a blood nose and is trying to stay out on the ground!! The wheel is turning people!!!

[ThreeOneSix 954]

Our midfielders need to be accountable.

That is the only way we can lose.

Bulldogs mids will have to kick their goals.

Man up fellas.

[ThreeOneSix 954]

Howe decided that because Dawes was doing nothing, he could make good use of him as a step ladder.

[Demon Jack 7,155]

Howe goals.
