Surely, the temperature will drop by the time the game starts🙄

 
 

Can't believe some of the above posts.

People actually go to the footy and don't drink booze!!!

I just opened a Shiraz to help recover from the shock.

    Predicted to be between 27-30 at bounce time.

    Those hot sessions out at Casey over summer May just come in handy

    Lucky the numbers are big on that team sheet.

    Bulldogs have named their 4 head monster in the starting 22.

    But their bench looks very pedestrian:  J.Johannisen 39 J.Bruce 17 O.Baker 13 M.Hannan 29  

    Their sub from listed emergencies:  B.Khamis 24 H.Crozier 9 T.McLean 16 J.Sweet 41  unless Beveridge does one of his last minute switcheroos!

    Gee whiz Tomlinson. Last I saw he couldn't turn, jump or push. Naughton will have an absolute field day. 

    Disappointing they didn't go D Turner.

    • Shocked 1

    So Tommo in… ok then. What are the matchups given Doggies are playing 4 talls? 

    You could have lined Turner up on Darcy, kids played like 2 games. 

    Petty takes JUH

    Tommo Naughton 

    Lever to Darcy

    Gawndy on Lobb

    We really need to dominate midfield and not allow clean clearances to the Doggies otherwise it will be a goal fest. 
     

    Also read May has a hammy not a calf. did anyone else see that?

    Is it still four on the bench plus the sub or three plus the sub this year?

    4+1

    Here we go, Tommo!

    lol

    I will be rooting for him.

    Like that forward line as listed.

    Not sure about that selection or the reasoning but will love to be proven wrong

    Really not a fan of Tomlinson here but if Baker is in their 22 their depth must be struggling

    Thanks.  I guess Jordon would be the favourite for the sub position.

    We really need to dominate midfield and not allow clean clearances to the Doggies otherwise it will be a goal fest. 

    Lever trying to reach Darcy's hands, Tomlinson trying to keep up with Naughtons acceleration off the mark, Gawndy on Lobb while potentially losing him at the defence ruck contest with anyone from WB potentially in the ruck, English floating Forward to cause mayhem. If we lose, it will be because of confusion! And if we win it might also be because of confusion :laugh:

    Bulldogs love pace. That’s how they beat us at Docklands last year.  I think they see us as beatable again with forwards and pace.  Tough one with 4 of our best 12 players.

    I’m going for this outcome, D17. ❤️💙

    Love the optimisim, but I'm sitting here staring at the team line-up just announced and  heroic will be the word for sure defensive-wise if we get up.

    It won't be for lack of trying though.   Trac and Clarrie will see to that.

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
