DEEDAY: Dockers vs Bulldogs

If I’ve learned anything from 20 years of footy tipping, is never trust Fremantle. Or as they’ve been affectionately dubbed by my friends and I “Failmantle”. 
Hope I’m wrong and Hogan has a blinder to help out his old mates. 
This is definitely not the way I want us to make finals.

    Heave ho Freo!

    Fyfe, Hogan, Brsayshaw, Cerra, Lobb , Tabrener, Mundy, Ryan , Henry, Serong....  too much talent for the fragile Bulldogs.

    Dockers by 24

    Dees to play FINALS

    Warm day here in Cairns, with some wind.  Freo, they have a good record on this ground.

    I would have a touch of confidence if Walters was playing as he can win games off his own boot however cant see it without him.   I think the dogs have a mental steel that we lack but very happy to be proven wrong.

    C'mon lads we know how this is scripted..

    I all honesty I will be shocked if Freo knock off doggies. Anything is possible, but Beveridge has that ability to get the boys up for big occasions. 

    They ain't dropping this one unfortunately.

    I know Freo  are big in Westralia but I always considered them a nonentity  club !

    Now we find ourselves hanging on their coat tails.

    Anyway they are in @Ethan Tremblayterritory so I'll wait on his deeply considered insights and prognostications.

    Will know within the first 10 minutes we aren’t playing finals. 

    But stranger things have happened, so go Doctors!

    Dogs have the required mental fortitude and gumption built in to their make up. 
     

    We’ll all be put out of our misery today.

    It'll either be.

    A close one and go either way. (Dogs if that's the case)
    OR
    The dogs will absolutely smash them by 40+

    Walters out tips it even further in the dogs favour. They are a good side this year imo, and I can’t see them dropping this the way they are playing. But fingers crossed the Dockers at least put them under some pressure and make them earn it.

    Travelled all the way to Melbourne for this game because we could not lose. Sat behind the goal in shock was the longest drive home. 

    Maybe Hogan can be the Modra of 2020. 

    Maybe

    Poor suckers hanging their hats on a Freo upset.

    Dont do it to yourselves.

    There would be many more clubs you'd want in this position other than the notoriously meek mannered Freo. I don't have the highest hope for it and that's perfectly fine, don't think it's possible to be accused of being a negative nancy about a team that isn't even mine but I'm sure some coconut will find a way!

    4 times out of 5 the Dogs win this. But godspeed Freo.

    Geez we sucked that year.

    Yet we made the prelim and grand final either side of it.    Melbourne....

    Dogs have a 5-0 record at Cazaly (all against the Suns though)

    Freo are a much improved side and play a keeping-offs game style that may worry the dogs.

    Freo need to tag the Bont, nullify Daniel and JJ and they’re a good chance.

    I don't see the dogs letting this one slip unfortunately. If they do make it I'll probably cheer them on as my adopted team during the finals.

    Is this MFC SS?

    I dreamed that Footscray made a big recovery in Q4 from 30 points down, and scored a brilliant , after the siren,  angle goal from a dubious  deliberate o.o.b. free to win by a point.

    #freekickbulldogs will be in full effect if Freo get any kind of lead.

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
