Huge out!

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

Still prefer Grundy in the team, happy Tomlinson is back in.

If we are serious we win easily.

[DubDee 21,030]

*Sound of 40+ bets being placed

[layzie 29,269]

Joel Smith for 2 goals

Anything less than a forty point win will not suffice.

Big day for Max. Boys need to get it done.

Plus with a few teams going into finals with a lot of wins behind them, we need some form as well.

Hopefully Smith and Jvr work well together.

Why?

They beat Collingwood two weeks ago and the Dogs last week. They beat Brisbane earlier in the year, too. 

I think we should win by 40+ if we play at or near our best but I am not going to be too glum if we win by less, because the win is incredibly important.

If you don’t turn up today and choose to watch on tv instead (and you’re in Melbourne obviously), then shame on you. Final home game of the year. In the race for top 4. Captain Max playing his 200th. Weather is mild. 
Don’t be the sort of Melbourne supporter everyone laughs about. Turn up, make noise, and let’s bury those Hawks!

When are people on this forum going to finally understand that being able to attend games is a privilege, not a display of commitment? I would love nothing more than to be there today, but I will have to watch from home, for  reasons I don’t owe anybody here an explanation. Stick your “shame” up your [censored].

The correct phrase is queue in Iraq. 

Theyre waiting for their  Australian student visas .

I was obviously referring to people who CAN come today but CHOOSE not to.

I hear you but mainly because I hate Hawthorn and we are by far a better team. Plus I think we will see our mids shine bright today.

Ps you were right about Carlton.

Doh.

Our jumper today looks like Fitzroy Of old.

Pretty sure @Jaded No More is referring to those who have the ability to go but just choose not to. 

For those who have the means to attend, please attend.

Let’s just say I prefer your phrasing.

Maybe the hawks win last week wasn’t that great.

dogs are a rabble

Just watched the VFL and Grundy looks like a broken player at the moment. Looks to have zero confidence in himself.

[sisso 2,388]

Happy if we just get the 4 points but a comfortable win would be nice for the heart after the last few weeks

[layzie 29,269]

Just win baby. No other expectations

Yep, just want that top four spot and move on from there.
