    Some ripper games this weekend

    The dogs to get the better of the the Cats

    We'll beat the Swans in a tight tussle

    Freo have their tails up after accounting for us last week and will beat the Lions. Suits us better if they do as well

    Geelong are going under the radar a little bit.

    They have made a few changes to youth and player roles: 

    • de Koning is doing a great job at FB which has freed up Tom Stewart who is doing a sterling job as a mid-fielder, rebounder or behind the ball.  Still able to play The General.
    • Stengle is a really damaging small forward.  Great kick i50 and kicks plenty of goals.
    • Holmes is injured but coming on in his second year.
    • They are getting better at switching between their 'control' and their 'territory' game plans.

    Scott is doing a lot of experimenting with player positions and ball movement to ready for September.

    They will undoubtedly make the top 8 and most probably the top 4 so no harm done if they win this or not.  I'd rather not see the Bulldogs in the top 8.

    Feel ill to tip Geelong to win...

    It looks like Freo will have a weakened team vs Lions this week with injuries to some key players.

    • Taberner who kicked two goals before being subbed out for half the game
    • Walters who was damaging buzzing around the fwd line
    • Chapman a key tall defender who took 14 marks and gained 436 mtrs.

    That game may not give us any clearer picture of the top teams than last week did.

    Tonights game will tell us a lot about where the Dogs are in 2022, if they beat the Cats i think it's fair to consider them a finals threat, if they don't maybe not

    If Dogs lose tonight, they'll be 6-6 and probably have to go 9-1 in the last 10 games  to finish top 4, and thus have any genuine hope of winning the flag this year. No team has ever snuck into the top 4 with 14 wins.

    Even if they win, they'll still have to go 8-2 to make top 4 with Melbourne, Brisbane (away), St Kilda, Fremantle, Sydney (away) and Geelong (away).

    I'm ruling out the Dogs to win the 2022 premiership.

    Honestly no idea who wins tonight. Danger still out but the dogs are so inconsistent.

    Under the roof, I think Cameron and Hawkins will be the difference and the Cats will win

    Dogs just don't look mentally switched on this year

    Cats by 1pt

    Already better than she who should not be named

    Jeelong may have one of the worst midfields in the comp but I'll still lean towards tipping them tonight

    Think one of the two sides will win by 10 goals just not sure which one

    Think Geelong have won 14 of the last 17 against the Dogs, thats a fair record.

    I hope the Dogs win on the pure basis even though we smashed them last year in the finals Geelong are still a bunch of flogs.

    The dogs, a team who are famous for being quick and moving the ball quickly, are looking slow and unclean while the cats, a team many were concerned about being too slow, look quick and slick.

    The Dogs have to be the most mentally weak team around. So much talent but zero application

    Doggies looking a rabble so far. Little system, poor skills, low energy. It is early in the match so anything can happen, but what happened to their highly celebrated midfield?

    • 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?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      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.
