Nasher 33,651 Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 The Lions are having one of our start to the year, in years gone past of course - 'good' new recruits and a thorough deflation of hope and life itself. Thank eff it's someone other than us for once.
DeeSpencer 26,667 Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 Geez some peculiar matches tonight. Thought Brisbane were going to kill it this year, Collingwood would be pathetic and Bulldogs would threaten Saints for the spoon. Wrong on all counts. Luke Beveridge is proving that former Melbourne players make the best coaches. The Dogs are electrifying to watch and are running and making as good decisions like a top 8 side. The Eagles are letting them and they don't have the talls or probably the midfield grunt, but they are doing beautifully.
Demon Jack 7,194 Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 Brisbane a chance here...would cap off a perfect day if they could take down a full strength Collingwood.
Moneider96 1,045 Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 oh man...Brisbane is going to win (7 goals in a row, down by 10 points)...what a round...
pantaloons 2,019 Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 There are some toilet teams I'm looking forward to beating this year.
Wiseblood 24,637 Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 I dislike the Dogs, but Bontempelli is going to be some player. Absolute gun.
dees189227 12,509 Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 west coast have been straight kickers tonight only 14-2 but it looks like they will lose that one. Tom Boyd only 1 goal. Nic Nat no marks but has the 2 goals and 15 possies. sorry cant help it. But I will take watts game today over his. wow the dogs and the dees in the 8.
daisycutter 30,004 Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 we're still second on the ladder.........doggies by 10

'Tom Boyd only 1 goal' Yep, i would take Jesse Hogan over Tom Boyd and Patton any day of the week.
SaberFang 7,151 Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 Stringer an absolute gun too... hard not to be frustrated.
Moneider96 1,045 Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 man, it sucks i can't watch the GWS game. I hope they're as crap as last year. Go Sainters! injure as many players as you can.
DeeSpencer 26,667 Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 'Tom Boyd only 1 goal' Yep, i would take Jesse Hogan over Tom Boyd and Patton any day of the week. Jesse Hogan only 2 goals? Patton is a gun but injuries have wrecked him for now. Boyd is a man mountain who will struggle for a while but end up dominant. We didn't have to choose between the two and at 1 mil per year we weren't ever in the market for Boyd! I'm just thankful we have our man. Let the Dogs enjoy Boyd and Stringer, we can do well with Hogan, Watts, Vandenberg and co. I'm jealous about Bont! But even if they weren't at their best yesterday I'm still pretty happy with Tyson and Salem!
Hulett Packard III 166 Posted April 5, 2015 Posted April 5, 2015 Looking forward to the GWS v Saints game today. Hope it's tough and hard with plenty of physical clashes so the Giants have trouble recovering over their six day break.
What 18,810 Posted April 5, 2015 Author Posted April 5, 2015 Looking forward to the GWS v Saints game today. Hope it's tough and hard with plenty of physical clashes so the Giants have trouble recovering over their six day break. Hopefully Scully gets through. Dont want him to miss next weeks game and the chance to meet Vanders, Viney, Angus and Hogan up close and personal.
ignition. 1,478 Posted April 5, 2015 Posted April 5, 2015 Without coming across as condescending (video of kids), I remember seeing this upon Roos' arrival and thinking geez I hope he can teach us to do that. I certainly saw the spread yesterday and it was a delight to watch.
RalphiusMaximus 6,112 Posted April 5, 2015 Posted April 5, 2015 Jesse Hogan only 2 goals? Patton is a gun but injuries have wrecked him for now. Boyd is a man mountain who will struggle for a while but end up dominant. We didn't have to choose between the two and at 1 mil per year we weren't ever in the market for Boyd! I'm just thankful we have our man. Let the Dogs enjoy Boyd and Stringer, we can do well with Hogan, Watts, Vandenberg and co. I'm jealous about Bont! But even if they weren't at their best yesterday I'm still pretty happy with Tyson and Salem! I went and watched the doggies game with one of their supporters after our win. It was a really entertaining, open game. Neither side had great defence so the ball was going coast to coast a hell of a lot. Bont was actually really quiet, especially in the first half where he only had 4 touches. Boyd looks a year or so behind Hogan, but he took a really nice contested mark for his one goal. He looks like he'll be a real handful one on one. I think they need to bring in one more big forward to make it all work. Stringer needs to be the third tall down there and neither Redpath nor Crameri are good enough to warrant the better defenders. On Stringer, I would think all those bemoaning the choice of Toumpas would mention him more often. The guy is an absolute gun.
ucanchoose 1,816 Posted April 5, 2015 Posted April 5, 2015 I cannot stand North Melbourne. I hope they get well and truly pumped today
dees189227 12,509 Posted April 5, 2015 Posted April 5, 2015 I hope the saints get up today. But im looking forward to tomorrow to see how Frawley goes against hawkins and Clark,
RalphiusMaximus 6,112 Posted April 5, 2015 Posted April 5, 2015 Treloar, Shiel and Green are tearing it up against the Saints. There's another mid who seems to be a bit quiet though.
SaberFang 7,151 Posted April 5, 2015 Posted April 5, 2015 Saints are just a basketcase. GWS will blow this open in the second half. Would've thought everyone learned not to push out experience at the expense of youth after what happened to us.
