Gold Coast don't have a proper ruckman today. This Chris Burgess fella who is named as ruck doesnt even get any hitouts and the kid Graham gets 10-12 per game. Just what the hell are they playing at? Grundy will get 80 hit outs today.

How good would it be if this horrific song is filling the MCG air in a few hours.

Not just one.. hopefully Jones and Melksham have shockers too if they play. We have way better players ready to come in for them. This is our year for the flag, all passengers must be weeded out by the halfway mark of the season.

Edited as nobody will get the reference (too highbrow for you serfs).

Naughtons set shot in the last quarter was one of the worst ever. Kept looking up at the scoreboard. Not sure what he was distracted by but shows how mentally weak the Dogs are. Will be very disappointing if we lose to such a soft overrated outfit.

Even if our midfield is beaten by Norths which is highly unlikely, our unstoppable backline would repel everything anyway. This should be identical to the VFL game, a 100+ point walk in the park.

And as for the soft Dogs, how much of their 157% came from their 130 point pounding of a listless North under the Telstra dome roof? The best 3 teams in the comp are Melbourne, Port and Richmond in that order.

Every time Josh Bruce got near the ball did anyone else think "I cant believe this guy kicked 10 goals in a game?" That's how bad North Melbourne are by the way. Ben Brown should be aiming to kick 15 on Sunday.

wrong topic

Yup. We have beaten Sydney once since 2011 and twice since 2006. The only team left that still owns our souls, and beat us yet again last season when we were in the finals hunt.

We will be 7-0 top of the ladder with the best % come Sunday afternoon. I am already looking to next weeks game, Saturday night at the MCG vs the Swans who would love to burst our bubble. They have been a bit wobbly the last two weeks but if they can beat Geelong tomorrow they will be up and about. #takingittwoweeksatatime

I guess I must be drunk again (I'm not).. why are you guys saying we need to improve our % to overtake the Dogs on the ladder.. we will have 7 wins and they will have 6. Percentage wont matter.

Margin irrelevant, we would be a game clear

The media will again tell us all week how unstoppable the mighty Dogs are. They love to fellate them.

Struggling against a Dusty-less Richmond, lol. Doggie pretenders. They may win but we are officially the best team in the league.

Dogs are soft as butter.

What a crap game. The Dogs are nothing to fear thats for sure.

Dogs can thank us for last week, they are copying us and there is a huge gap in possession between the two teams.

Ok thought we played them at the G. Might be a big shootout that night

Have the Dogs ever played in the wet? If it rains when we play them we will belt them.

Please win this by 100 Doggies, Richmond can bugger off forever thanks

Can someone show me on the club website where the stats are? They used to be easy to find a few years ago, now I am not even sure they are on there at all. Lucky there are plenty of way better sites for stats but how how insane is it that something like that wouldn't be on there,. Unfortunately all clubs are forced to use the horrendous Telstra afl.com layout. They should be able to run their own independent sites with their own design.

Who needs Ugle Hagan when you have Handgun Hannan, eh?

Are they going to snub him for the AA team like they did to May last season? He should be a lock.

Gold Coast beating the Pies at the MCG would have to mean the end of Buckley. It would be a perfect round if Freo, Sydney and the Dogs won.
