GAME DAY - Round 22

[Return to Glory 8,213]

Dees by 15 points.

Triple m saying toumpas signed for 2 years

[What 18,810]

Personally, I'll never be 'stoked with a loss'. I'm always disappointed, even when there was no expectation that we'd win. 30 points is a bit easier to handle than 100 though.

True, maybe stoked was the wrong word. But if for example St Kilda were going over to Perth this weekend and took it right up to Freo and lost by less than 30 points, half of Demonland would be saying how amazing their rebuild has been , how easily they leapfrogged us and how awesome their kids are.

Expecting Freo to have some late withdrawals from their side.

Time to give tired players a rest before finals ( Fyfe), yet not be so obvious about it like they did last year!

Good to see the club's backing him in.

[P-man 13,366]

*something positive*

[Little Richard 6,213]

Apparently it's 'Melbourne Day' too. Coincidence or Illuminati?

Good signs.

[Adam The God 29,324]

Reckon we'll get within 4 and if they're not switched on we could snatch a memorable win.

Love your work rtg. You're one dees fan who isn't cloaked in a veil

[Sir Why You Little 36,598]

I can never be pleased with a loss

This is exactly what Roosy meant

[Samael 560]

a repeat of the last 3 weeks - absolutely smashed and embarassed in the first half then a false semi-comeback as the opposition rests on their laurels

just looking at the team sheet ... Garland, Howe, MJones, Michie, Cross, ANB, Garlett, Spencer, OMac, Gawn, Watts, Stretch, Newton and Grimes

That's 14 blokes who are either ineffective kids or seniors who are guilty of some atrocious footy this season. No reasonable person could expect a decent performance out of any of them to be quite blunt.

the line should be around 100 for mine

I expect that they will play their guts out. After Roos comments about negative fans I expect them to bleed this week. Don't actually care about the result but do care about the effort. We are playing a very, very good team but its a team that rarely kills oppositions as Lyons appears to only want to win and they quite often shut down when the game is in their control. I am expecting to be within 5-6 goals at the end. To me, considering the opposition, that would be a good result. Opening a red at the start of the game

[McQueen 17,864]

It's going to be greasy conditions with the odd shower of rain passing through. Can't see it being completely dried out before this arvo.

Expect a scrappy, low scoring game.

I was completely wrong with the above forecast.

I've just got off the field myself from playing Masters footy and it's dry, warm and a little breezy.

Played against Des Headland and Dale Kickett.

We came second.

[praha 11,100]

There's zero chance we'll be within 10 goals. I just hope Hogan kicks a bag.

Good signs.

Melbourne. .indeed anywhere right of WA border means absolutely zilch to the Gropers !!

Melbourne Day....start drinking Melbourne Bitter....and don't stop !!!

[BarnDee 287]

what time does this game start , vic time ??

[JV7 2,348]

Backs against the wall... Inspirational skippers 200th game... Playing a side who's renowned for putting the cue in the rack at this time of year in prep for finals... Still lose by 10+ goals

Do you play in the rep games? I am playing in the over 55 this year and the rep games are brilliant. The lower levels get a bit fair dinkum but the old guys games are fun.

did you get a kick

[DemonOX 8,692]

Tbh I have forgotten what it's like to enjoy watching the footy and supporting a team that plays in the finals. I do miss that feeling.

Footy is such a chore and it shouldn't be.

Walters the only late out for dockers... Grimes sub

Still playing Supers and Master grades.

Grimes the sub

[McQueen 17,864]

did you get a kick

Had it on a string mate.

[Moneider96 1,045]

How many goals do you reckon we will concede in the first quarter?

[jnrmac 19,890]

Grimes the sub

Roos doesn't understand the sub. Pointless having Grimes as the sub.
