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.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
