    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

    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: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
