I can envisage heaps of off the ball blocking and bumping of Max. They will want to rough him up and bring him back to Stef’s level if they can.

I just don’t get the Angus talk. Deeply invested, about to enter a dynasty type window, plays a critical role in a way no-one else in the comp does it. Gets to be smart, tough, effective and lead every game, stats count regardless. he is worth way more to us than Cerra. If we get a pure wingman, he gets more centre rotations. But atm he plays about 80-100% game time. he is an absolute keeper for me.

They really are blowing bubbles in the bath water. The bit where Bevo comes up with something to crack our system like ‘Batman’ is hilarious. We know our system and back it. If we execute it, then any cute tricks wont change things much. This game will require brilliant execution of our fundamental plan, regardless of what they ‘try’. Massive pressure on the outlet and the ball carrier, dont over commit to contests and roll through Gawn and Jackson as significant differentiators. Port were rubbish, they scraped past the Lions with help, and looked dodgy leading in. Lets see what they bring.

I hope not. This is where the tactics will be worked through that will deliver the win. Lets not give Bevo a leg up!

We are the best team in the competition - advantage us media tyre pumping - advantage them umpires - advantage them we are the best team in the competition - still advantage us. All this talk of ‘how do we stop their midfield’ - like they don't have to stop ours? We have 2 ruckmen to their none (what a guy that looks like officer plod from Noddy and a guy that can hardly jog?). Yes, they have good players, and are the second best team for most of the year. They have to plan to deal with 5 all Australians. if we bring our best, and don't over commit inside the contest, then this will be a ding dong grand final and we should get it done if we are reasonably accurate. Hold the doggies to 10-12 goals, kick 14-18 ourselves.

shows Tim Lane is one of the best callers, and MMM are the absolute worst. Without the vision, their meaningless drivel would be impossible to listen to. Example “Oh! He is taking the p1sz! He is taking the p!ss! Would not tell me wtf is going on. These guys are grandstanding Nufties. BTW, unbelievable and brilliant performance by Max!

I am a victim of the Melbourne lockdown. I doubt the rules will be changed in time for me to even have one other person over, let alone a party. I expect to be sitting alone on the couch watching the game. Without the pandemic, I would probably start Friday and after watching the game at the G, and then celebrating/commiserating hard until some time on Sunday or maybe Monday. I am double vaxxed, and would love to get out and enjoy this special moment, but I will comply with the law at the time.

I hear the allocation is sold out. Hope you got your tickets, bobby.

I remember us beating them at Whitten Oval to make the finals. Garry kicked a bag. Great times. most doggies fans seem ok, although every team has its nuffies. btw, that lady who damaged the Dees property, did she get caught yet? (Speaking of nuffies)

Sideshow did this to Andrew’s in the Brisbane game. It worked a treat.

And whist the panic is high here, I wonder who the doggies fans are worried about? the 5 all Australians? the rising star? kozzie? We can do this, if we stick to our method and bring the pressure.

Wouldn’t even make our emergencies.

I just watched the Garry Lyon interview with Max. OMG, I fair dinkum have tears in my eyes.

Seriously creepy!

I just feel ecstatic after that. Brilliant performance, we pantsed them. Thanks, Dees

Gawd! Like blimpey the lactose intolerant cat….. roll on game time!

Obviously got too close to Hawkins. Apparently he cant help himself.

Video yourself before being too drunk nodding from time to time and looking interested. Play on loop. Drink to excess and recover on the floor if need be. Work From Home indeed!

“Lightning won’t strike twice’ The last time we played at Optus we had to flee the ground for a lightning storm, then gave up a big lead to hang on against the Eagles. No storm warnings tonight. No chance for the old oppo list to get their breath back. Lets get out to a lead and keep ourselves well out of reach. I reckon they will kick 8-10 goals. We will kick 12-16 goals. Our margin will be at worst two goals, at best 8. Go Dees!

I would be careful - we have been told we can share PF barcodes, but as I understand it, GFG are not transferrable. I would wait until we get the email from the club (should we win) that outlines how this will work, and if transfer is allowed.

The media seem to be all over the cats. No real insight into ‘how we win’. All about the forwards for the cats, That rat fella and of course the midfield. They all fail to mention the umpires, how Hawkins is emboldened to injure, or the fact that the Dees are 2-0 and better placed to win this one. In fact, I will go so far as to say if we play 80% of our best or better, we will win. Commentators be damned!

Dally M medallist? WTF?? What work experience Queenslander wrote this?

Be remiss not to have a crack. May just push the price up? we can’t know what else the club has planned - they just don’t leak!

Generally the worst footy related entertainment of the year. Will only be good if a dee wins.

From many wanting Smith out - now teeth gnashing when it is forced upon us! If it comes down to Smith / Hibbard for the win, we are in trouble. Our system down back is more important than our fourth backman selection.
