Would expect the Dogs to withdraw a couple at least from today's game as insurance. Six day break and an injured Roughead.

Would think Minson or Campbell will come out. Maybe Jong or another mid as well.

    At least one of the rucks i would have thought, it really depends how much they think playing today would set them back next weekend, obviously they'd love to win today and next week as well

    Bloody hope so. I reckon the win last night would have given the young pups today an extra ticker.

    Will be a very close game today.

    Man I can't tell you how excited I am for this game. My brother in 10 years of football has never played in a Grand Final, and nothing on this level. He is absolutely beaming with anticipation (which is rare for him, he's usually very humble and docile off the field) Whatever the result it's gonna be a huge day!

    Who is your brother?

    All those weeks of traipsing down to Casey. 

    All that time spent walking round the outer.

    All those match day reports from KC and the D'landers. 

    All those egg and bacon rolls.

    It all comes down to this......

    Oh nice. A lot of people on here want the Dees to draft him, myself included.  Go Scorps.

    Hope he's ok. He will be missed, but I'm also kind of glad that he's not being put at further risk of aggravating last week's injury.

    The Dogs went in against Collingwood massive underdogs with the bookies, much like their senior side over the last 3 weeks.

    Unfortunately I expect the Dogs will run over the top of Scorps, the Dogs were just clinical last week against Collingwood.

    Ugh! Got friends coming over to show off their new baby at 2.00 ?

    Delayed recording it is. To check scores or not? Hmm

    For a VFL game, there are quite a lot of Doggies supporters on the train coming in from eastern subs. 

    Hope they go home with tails between legs.

    Can't they text you a photo like normal people. And then you have to say 'what a beautiful baby' even if it looks like it stepped out of Deliverance.

    I would love to nail their masts to the wall - without anaesthetic

    Well I got that wrong. We lose Salem and they go in as selected. They are stronger than the team that beat the Pies last week by 20 goals. This will be tough.

    More hipster sheep like behaviour then? Bulldogs should have 60000 members if this many people like them.

    Mike Brady looking a bit older than I last saw him just walked past. He's going to sing "One Day in September". I guess he can't do that on AFL Grand Final Day.

    Not sure why the Casey boys are in white shorts seeing that the Scorpions finished on top.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
