GRAND FINAL: Melbourne vs Western Bulldogs

[Ted Lasso 19,282]

I can't really see a way we don't have significantly more run in the second half. dogs had a week off, but the 5-6 weeks leading up have been as hard and emotionally draining as they're likely to get. they've certainly done it the hard way. 

they'll be setting themselves to throw a big punch early, and hope we're a little bit off like Port. 

i've said it a few times, if this is close at 1/4 and 1/2 time, it's a Demons premiership. they need to be minimum 5 goals clear and then hang on for dear life

Listening to Kane Cornes this morning from Perth he reckons the general support around town is in the Dees favour against the Doggies 80/20.
 

If that translates even to 70/30 or 60/40 at the game then that’s a huge advantage on top of the fact we’ve already played some massive games at the same ground.

That, the demons being favourite on most tipping boards and that apparently we are getting most of the media attention plays right into Bevo's "us against the world" mantra he has adopted for the finals.

The mantra will be galvanising but I doubt it will get them over the line.  They don't look united or menacing enough.

This little grand final package arrived  at The Manor this morning ( from an anonymous admirer)

It will complement the sweet taste of victory!

When did sauce become “ketchup”?

Didn’t, there is both. Ketchup is thicker.

There’s a lot of talk about targeting Gawn but I hope we are super aggressive on the Bont and English. 

Im sure they will but it will cost them.

Jv wont be happy and Luke Jackson will be free to run around creating havoc,

[leave it to deever 17,511]

Its nice to think we have something of a home ground advantage in Perth.

Played our last game and one a few weeks back v the Eagles so I guess its a little bit more suited to us.

 

[leave it to deever 17,511]

Aside from winning this year, it would be only fair to win back to back flags so most supporters will be able to see us win at the G.

But I get ahead of myself. The dogs will be a tough team to beat.

I hope we jump out of the blocks and kick well at goal. I think Bbb may have a big day supported by Kozzie.

The last time we met was different.

I doubt they will get 14 more frees. Josh Bruce is out. Jv is back to his best. Max has gone turbo mode. Our fwd line is settled.

I want us to own Optus for all time  - only club to ever win a Premiership there

Genius, as a fan I've got a 100% winning record at optus. 3 from 3. Let's hope it is 4 from 4.

I feel sick watching the captains run..

[Bitter but optimistic 22,218]

Players just coming on

Geez.  The theme song.  The players running out.  
The hair on the back of my neck is electric 

What will the real thing be like !!
