That wouldn’t happen.

The Dogs struggled to beat Geelong’s VFL side last night.

It was probably only match fitness of Cat’s younger guys in the last quarter that gave Dogs the win.

They look an unhappy team.

geelong are a shadow of last year.  Why isn't that the narrative in the media.  ?

Dogs absolutelt gettable y by anyone in the 8 in Week 1.

    I would love the Dees to have such a goalkicking key forward.

    If Petty has an injury free season next year, bookmark him kicking 50 plus goals.

    We had to do it in 1990 against Hawthorn. Won both games, but they were brutal and we had nothing else left in the tank. 

    Half true. We had a week off before we played WC at Waverley in the SF due to their draw with Collingwood in the QF in week one and their replay. We should have beaten WC, we let a golden opportunity slip that year.

    Bulldogs arent out of the woods yet.

    GWS must be a huge chance today with Mr Toby right on form and one of the best defence teams. Those Carlton cheats will he lucky to kick 10 goals.

    ##&#%%##  F Carlton.

     

    Stkilda will be praying for a Dees win. If not, Stkilda's run in Sept will crash into a wall in Week1.  Over and out.

    Those 2 games against Hawthorn were all we had. The week off didn’t do anything 

    we lost games mid year that cost us

    Completely agree. The week's delay meant we were not tuned in in the day we played WC. You could tell in the warmup that we were in trouble.

    it’s a joke. If we missed finals after winning the flag they’d be calling for Goodys head

    not to mention the bombers not being dragged over the coals with their massive finals choke and 150pt loss.

    Watching the Port Richmond game. Considering turning the commentary down. Brereton is just so full of himself.

    I don’t mind the coverage having one person as ‘special’ comments, but they just talk way too much. They have a comment on just about every piece of play.

    Real incentive for Carlton to beat GWS so they get the Bulldogs in Week 1. Reckon Carlton will rip the Doggies apart.

    Another point is who would Port rather play next week. 

    They’d rather not play Brisbane in Brisbane.

    Incredibly Port have lost 4 straight up at the GABBA and 5 of their last 6 encounters against Brisbane.

    They don’t match up well against Brisbane.

    And Port are playing like a team that knows it can’t play a week 1 home final, albeit with a small lead.

    Geez Butters and Rozee are going to be an issue for us if we play them in the finals.

    We’ve already lost to them this year directly because of those 2. They weren’t just key contributors, they we’re the difference in round 10.

    Port players are playing like they are scared of copping a pre finals injury.

    Are Port even genuinely trying to win this? They should at least make it look like it.

    Still think we can finish the lions up at The Gabba so oh well..

    Goody wanted us head to head  last time.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
