LJ traded back to us for a 4th rounder sounds fair

We can win if we play at our best, too many supporters writing this one off before the first bounce of the ball!

About time we turned our poor record again the Swans around, they aren’t THAT terrifying…in a weird way no Max might be a good thing as it will give the midfield a different look that they haven’t seen for a while

Its JVR time

It’s offical we can breathe again 4-6 weeks

We don’t need to win every match either..:halfway point at around 7-5 would be fine as long as we have plenty in the tank for the rest of the season

Please be right and just a medial….even if he’s out until the bye we can cope with that

Agree doesn’t look good but we can’t toss the whole year in….I can think of 3 clubs off the top of my head who won flags when they lost a vital player for the year with an ACL (Port 2004, Bulldogs 2016, Tigers 2019) Let’s hope for the best though

Brutal competition, we’re not just going to waltz through the year without drama…bad night for the boys but we will reload and go again next week

Haven’t been smashed like this in a while…just have to take the L and move on sadly

Gulp

Losing to a team that has Hipwood and Daniher as their key forwards would make me puke…impossible to find two flakier players

Need to bash them up in the midfield, last week they looked soft in there despite the big names they have

Imagine the build up a GF against the Pies though the city would be in a frenzy....much more epic than playing Gold Coast, Freo or even a smaller Vic club

TMac is one of those players that will need to be managed and probably have a couple of games rest throughout the season I don’t think we can expect him to play every week

The punters must like us at $2 as we're currently into $1.80 as favourites with the bookies....not that it means anything in terms of what happens on the field but we do seem to play very well at the Gabba

Definitely wouldn’t risk May for the trip to QLD when Tommo did such a great job…get that calf/hammy 100% right

100% this is a generational team people of my age (45) may not see again so we need at least another flag

Loving our attacking style of footy when we get that run going we look super dangerous like 2021 again

We look more dynamic on the fast break but they are very good in close with those quick hands…be a close contest all night I reckon

Looks windy out there flags whipping around…hopefully doesn’t help their giant forward line

Demons by 3 points in a sphincter tightener

We need early 2021 Tommo ….remember that game Hawkins smashes Maysie in the face and put him out of action, from memory we rolled Tommo onto him he did a great job and we won comfortably

Great to see some new blood in the side best of luck to Judd and Bill!

Luckily the Bulldogs haven't got any tall forwards....wait what?
