Whispering_Jack 31,368 Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 If there's a single lesson to be learned from this round so far, it's that you should never rely on the results of other games. You have to get the job done yourself. 19

You have to get the job done yourself. If the team hasn't learned that lesson after the Round 23 debacle last season it will be so deflating for the supporters. Finals are non negotiable from here. We will find out in the next 4 games if we have finally taken the next step. The biggest month of footy for this club in a long, long time. It all starts today. 8
DeezNuts 624 Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 Yep, just woke up, the nerves kicking in already. Time to make a statement- go dees! 4
BigFez 1,491 Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 Can look at the weekend's results two ways. Scary as hell because we can still easily miss the 8, or as a massive opportunity to rise up the ladder. Go dees! 1
Dee Zephyr 19,311 Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 Let’s get the job done today Dees and set up the last 3 weeks. We have a taste for it now. No fuss, no frills. Just win. Make other teams worry about us for a change. All the best Vanders and well done Bernie on your 100th in Red and Blue. 2
Straight Sets Simon 23,113 Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 Perfect weather is forecast, should be a great crowd and a percentage-boosting flogging.

The Third Eye 288 Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 Let's not get ahead of ourselves. Objective should be to win every quarter - one quarter at a time. 3

—coach— 3,496 Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 This thread is already sounding the same as the game day thread prior to every game we should have won by ten goals but managed to loose in typical Melbourne fashion! Having said that, am taking my 5yo to the game with the expectation that her flag waving arm will get tired from the 25+ goals we will kick and the most nervous I will get at 3/4 time will be wondering if we will win by 15 or 20 goals ?? 5
Mondê 525 Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 We are a 15 goal better side on paper, their midfield is utter trash, Jarrod Witts is their captain, and we have a top 4 spot up for grabs. Watch us get rolled. 1 1
low flying Robbo 979 Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 We need to have a huge percentage booster today to keep us the top of the group on the same points 1
Gorgoroth 13,220 Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 If they are in it at 3/4 time then they will truly believe, need to blast them in the first quarter and make them despondent and go through the motions. 2
Gator 18,053 Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 It has been an incredible round. One that should make the dopes running the AFL think twice about radical changes, such as an 18 metre goal square. 5 2
Gator 18,053 Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 (edited) Win today and we get to roll that top eight team (Sydney next week) people carry on about. A misnomer though, as every team in the top eight is vulnerable and, in my view, ordinary by historic standards. Edited August 4, 2018 by ProDee 1

It’s funny how reactionary the media are. early every season we see high scoring free flowing games, then by about round 5 every coach ever has tightened things up defensively with the result games become tough lower scoring contests, then towards the end of the season, everything opens up again and you get ripping contests like the ones this weekend 4
SPC 3,596 Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 Need % today, got a feeling 1 of our last 3 we will get a smacking

Nor being humble and admit the coaches are working it out themselves and backing out of the changes. Go Dees let's grab this opportunity by the short and curlies
jane02 3,795 Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 (edited) Can’t wait for this afternoon. I will be there - Go Dees ❤️? Edited August 5, 2018 by jane02 None
