DubDee 26,674 Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 2 days until the game i was hoping for more time before I have to watch the Dees play again 1 Quote
Wrecker45 3,381 Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 We will win this and change the tragectory of the season. Small grounds suit us, until we adapt to the 6-6-6 rule. We were better on smaller grounds last year before the AFL changed the rules and unfairly lessened our recruitment strategy of competitive beasts. 7 Quote
La Dee-vina Comedia 17,136 Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 As a rule, I really dislike Thursday night football. I hope this week I can make an exception. Quote

If this was at the G It would be a certain loss, but I have a feeling the SCG will suit us due to lack of open space. They are only slightly quicker than us if at all so pace won't destroy us like Essendon did. 1 Quote
The Stigga 1,097 Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 We'll win this. Smaller ground, one day extra break. McVeigh a big loss. Hayward as well, makes them need to go to Buddy more. Let the system go... just play and enjoy. 2 1 Quote
JV7 2,375 Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 Went looking for the odds with betting agencies absolutely staggered to see most have the odds around the mark or Swans $1.75 to Dees $2.10. I was hoping for some $3 plus value on us. My feelings before each game has come to fruition this year but I’m confident of a win this week... Maybe more hoping because I’ll be up there 1 1 Quote

beelzebub 23,392 Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 I'm not sure any ground particularly suits us especially a smaller ground against very quick opposition. Just imagine ( painful as it is ) just how quickly Sydney can go coast to coast on their beloved turf ( non-lawn, paddock ) ?? From extended kickins..quick flick to Buddy... goodnight Irene. This is a monumental blood bath in the making.Fun days ahead. Quote
Lucifers Hero 40,716 Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 Not sure why folks think SCG is a 'small ground': 155m L x 136m W. As a reminder: Round 2, 2019 @ gmha: 170m L x 115m W. We lost by 80 points. It is the wider grounds that trouble us because opp spread wide and stretch our defences on the outside. SCG has more room for this play than gmha had. If we can't win on a ground that is 115m wide I can't see it happening on one that is 20m wider. 1 1 Quote

Forest Demon 4,681 Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 I think we will win this one on the smaller ground, but then lose to St Kilda at the G next week. Quote

Jaded No More 68,976 Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 I have a feeling I’ll be crying into my wine by quarter time as Buddy kicks his 17th goal. 3 Quote
