Have tipped Jeelong tonight, but it’s line ball

i could change it a few times during the day!

 

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.

Crows

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


Sitting at home with covid,I thought I'd watch some vfl.  One of the blokes has an English accent commentating the Geelong game!

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?

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.

  • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

    What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.
