Top of the Ladder?

[Swooper1987 2,724]

Finishing top is overrated.  Last side to win the flag finishing first after the H&A was Hawthorn in 2013.  The next two were from 2nd and 3rd, the Bulldogs in 2016 were 7th after H&A; the only year the Tigers were first was 2018 when they dropped the prelim. The great Brisbane side never finished on top either.  I'll happily take 2nd, 3rd or 4th after round 23.

So long as we are on the “right side” of MCG finals it doesn’t matter. If finishing 4th means we end up playing Port in Adelaide, then I rather finish 1st.

I'd take Top 4 and not have to play an interstate final

We are only a 1/3rd into the year, however I will be ecstatic when we finish top 4.

Go Dee’s.!!!!!!!!

Not this week.

Dogs to beat Richmond handily. What would we need to beat NM by to pick up 25% points.

I just had to put this here. 

Sometimes it awesome to be wrong, right?

Yup.

We have beaten Sydney once since 2011 and twice since 2006.   The only team left that still owns our souls, and beat us yet again last season when we were in the finals hunt.

One of those was an absolute belting at the MCG when roos was their coach and admitted he had no answers that day

These stats are a sad reminder of both how [censored] we have been and how old I am. So cheers.

We are top of the ladder and that is all....top and unbeaten.

Even 6 months ago this position was unthinkable, the stuff only the true believers would ever dare to dream. Well its happened and here we are, and we are the envy of the league. I think some of you just need to sit back chill and enjoy it while its here. We have gone a long way to reestablish ourselves as a powerhouse of the league once again along with the chance to build a huge membership base. Appreciate the club, the coach and the players who have worked their guts out to get us here.

Go Dees.

[Diamond_Jim 11,673]

Seven rounds in

Undefeated and atop the ladder

Sure.. it's not the endgame but hell it's nice

Just enjoy....

It's a pity that supporters cannot experience the Northey days when everyone was welcome in the change rooms.

Heady days and so much fun

PS... cannot remember ladies being allowed but cannot think why not.

this rapper has waited a while, he raps about Dees being top of the ladder lol

[Dame Gaga 2,453]

Think of the children. At the Hawthorn game I saw the joy in their faces when their team was winning and kicking goals. I feel so happy for them as well. We need this success for new generations of supporters.

[Pates 9,536]

I would expect we will have a fade at some point this year so ultimately I'm just stoked that whatever has come at us so far this season we have risen above it. A lot of footy to be played but being top of the table at this point is a great feeling.

Mate think about all us mid 30s supporters who have not seen us do anything but suck for basically our entire life.

I am genuinely in foreign territory here. 

[640MD 2,743]

This time

we are on top legitimately 

Last time a bit of an accident 

7 wins. 7 games PDG in my view

enjoy the view from up here, been a while.
