We don’t deserve finals! Need to stew on it over Summer and make some big changes... Starting with the footy department! 

Dogs are more deserving because they beat us. And beat us well...! 

 

This match will be over at 1/4 time. Dockers have nothing to play for. Bulldogs don’t rollover. They know what’s at stake and they’ll get the job done. 

we can’t cry over spilt milk. We had our chance and well and truly blew it. 

A win for the Dockers will cost them draft order. 

 

If the Dockers were that desperate to win they probably would’ve rolled the dice on an injured Walters.

Dogs should be winning this one quite easily and if they do lose then they should be considered as mentally soft as us.


well they say it comes in three's

The Huntracc affair, Bennell throwing an all nighter and we all know what comes next.

What a underwhelming season by this club

 

If Freo had beaten the Dogs yesterday and we were playing today then our fate would be in our own hands. Teams always rely on the results of other games for ladder position - it's a sporting league. Should the Dogs lose and we haven't cheated then we deserve to play in the finals - stating otherwise is just odd. We are currently a mid-table team - whether we play in the finals or not doesn't alter how we've performed until this point in the season. You can still complain all you want. 

Yeah not really understanding this dribble about how we don't deserve to play finals. 

We beat st kilda, pies & giants all finals contenders or there abouts. Lost by under a kick to two 4 four teams. And just had a poor showing against Freo and Sydney. (Freo since have shown a lot of teams how much they are clicking) 

The dogs for [censored] sake lost to the blues by 10 goals looked no where near it against pies and saints however have snuck a decent ground out win against the Eagles and played well against us. 

Saints are the same had some horrible losses including norf, the Eagles B team at the Gabba , Freo, but again they have also had some great wins port and Richmond spring to mind. 

Who ever is in the 8 tonight deserves to be there.

We’re all doomed. So many misery guts on here.  Hunt trac nothing to see there. Bennell yet to know full facts.  Don’t deserve finals. (Nor do dogs if they lose.  Final 7 required).

We’ll know within 10 minutes whether we’re a chance. Bulldogs don’t fail to take their chances like we do. They’ll end up winning by 50 plus like a Granny that’s over after halftime.  

I distinctly remember dogs blowing a chance v wc a few weeks back

I didn't realise that Walters was out injured. That makes it pretty hard for the Dockers.

The Dogs have had the dream draw staying, and playing at the GC for most of their games.

They have met weakened sides like in the Eagles game, without Nic Nat, Yeo, Cripps, Shuey, Hurn, Redden and others. Against the Eagles they were also 3 of their 6 goals from soft frees and beat them by a dodgy goal line call,  in the last score of the game. 

They had the best of the umpiring, allowing them to throw the ball to each other and getting soft frees in front of goal in many games and yes I watched most of them.

They hardly travelled. Now for the Cairns game they were allowed to go up early unlike us who were forced to go on the day, being our 3rd interstate game in 9 days.

Is all of that an excuse for us, no, but it sure was a help to the Dogs.

Hope they get smashed today, so we can again be the travelling team in the finals, to add to our leader record for this year in games travelled away from home or from our temporary home.

BTW, if we fluke it and get in, I actually think we can beat the Eagles in Perth, as they are not at their best and have a few injuries as well.

End of rant.

It's a very strange attitude to have "don't deserve finals", especially in a season were everyone has played each other once. If you make it you obviously deserve it because you've performed better than the clubs beneath.

Do I need to post our fixture? If one team doesn't 'deserve' to play finals compared to another team on the same points then there it is in plain text. Who wants to see St Kilda's or the back half of Collingwood's fixture as well?

They also lost to Collingwood, st Kilda and carlton by a combined total of 142 points. Not sure if your logic really adds up. 

 

The game is not far from starting. I 've downed a couple of stubbies and just opened a Shiraz.

I feel strangely listless, lethargic - almost uncaring.

I'll watch of course but I'm not confident. A sense of doom and inevitability pervades The Manor.

As soon as a Doggies win becomes obvious I'll quietly get [censored] and reflect on opportunities lost.

No and they are not coming off a 4 day break since Alice Springs and 3 games in 9 days. Nor is it pouring and blowing a gale.

And not a single 4-day turnaround, either.

I'm saving a proper chart for after the season so there's no sour grapes but I have a hunch that not many teams have won this year off 4-day breaks unless the opponent was also on 4 days.

Nobody could look at our season and think 'oh, well, they had it soft so they don't really deserve where they finished'.

Except possibly one of our throwing a sook-session.

Geelong did it once. They also have twelve blokes who have played more games than anyone on our list bar Jones. 

All I can say is come on Hogan, dont let us down.

Dogs aren’t more deserving than us if they don’t make finals. You have to win games of footy and if we win enough games to make the 8 no one else deserves it more.

I’m talking about the Dees and Dogs! We were both playing for a finals spot when we played each other... They beat us hands down. If we beat them that day it would be us playing finals!

To be fair I was pretty hot that day they drove from Brisbane to Gold Coast.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
