Love that Does it exist as a Gif that I can send to my bulldogs mate

Premiership Merchandising is big money. Tigers in 2017 got around 3 times what the Buldogs pulled in after their win in 2016. I'd pay good money for a replay with alternate commentary and analysis by the coach and players. Like the extras that often came with DVD's. Let's hope that I'm still interested come Monday

Nope Moomba signs I think

Wonderful photo Took me a while to orientate but it's the intersection of Bourke and Swanston looking up towards William Street. My guess is 1960/61 from the cars. I wonder if the Tivoli had become a cinema by then.(Can just be seen in the left foreground).

spot on both of our finals so far probably should have been over at half time or very soon therafter but we gave the other team a sniff. Forecast conditions for Perth are excellent. With the game time at 5:15pm Perth time it should be around 22 degrees with a mild breeze. Oh to have a 7 goal to 1 first quarter and then just a ten point better margin for quarters 2 and 3 is my dream leaving the fourth quarter to be watched in the glorious cloak of victory.

so who won the most team votes

Free kick Bulldogs... what else did one expect

Parish...... reminds you this is not the best but merely the best against the team they played that day

did you expect it to be otherwise... the good thing is that is why we "should" win next Saturday

remind me of how all the non competing players are present in Perth ?? Anastasia strikes again western style with ............. Sorry i'm losing it with these border closures

I like Clayton's classic look If he does win nothing worse than being in the camel safari suit

TBH I had forgotten it was on after having spent most of the day looking at the nuances (or lack thereof) of Dan's plan. Good luck young Oliver but I expect he may have too many team mates pulling votes off him. It will be sweet if we top the team votes. Not sure if we have done that since the glory days. Lots Peter Moore did it for us. In the old days players from lesser clubs were often favoured as they had less competition from team mates. Not sure why that has turned around but I suppose the game does not allow individual dominance like it once did.

Have always said that every second or third year it should be played interstate. In normal times it would make for a fantastic week of fun and celebrations. Weather in Melbourne is suitably depressing next Saturday. I'm so mixed over what a win might mean. It will be welcome but hollow I think.

It remains unclear how severe his injury is and if there was structural damage that could potentially rule him out of the season decider in seven days’ time. If Spargo was unable to play next Saturday, it could open up the door for speedster Jayden Hunt to be recalled and play as a forward. Alternatively, recent injury substitute James Jordon could be used as a half-forward and Hunt the sub.

Was thinking of this game and also the 1988 game yesterday. Both over by quarter time. Have never watched them in full. Amazing that the 2000 Essendon team never won another GF. They were... unfortunately for us... awesome. Time for better memories. PS if we win I think there would be demand for a replay with multiple soundtracks. Imagine Gawn describing what he was thinking etc or Goodwin doing analysis

Imagine if the Dallas Cowboys tried that

If he isn't in the senior team he's an expensive Casey player. Would miss him but probably makes sense if he's back up at best.

this is starting to read like a normal nervous gameday thread. Relax people and enjoy the game. Reallity is that in the GF we wont be as good as last night and nor will Bulldogs have a run like tonight

Dogs are snarling Had forgotten how bad Port's gameplan was... looks like Geelong but worse

1. Gawn 2.Petracca 3. Viney 4 .Oliver 5. Harmes 6. Brown

where have they been hiding that well done Dees

England v India Fifth Test just called off due to support staff member for the Indian team testing positive. The official result may show who runs cricket.

Hoping for a rerun of the 2000 PF against North Go Dees

absolutely correct but what politician wants to be seen as adding to the risk even if the risk is miniscule. Many Malaysians work in Singapore due to better wages. When coming back from Singpaore to Malaysia they have to hotel quarantine for 14 days which most can't afford. This is depite Singapore having 50 odd cases a day and Malaysia having twenty thousand. The world has gone mad. Apparently none of the recent Afghani arrivals have tested positive

would you pay $700k for TMac? He's not going anywhere unless he takes a 2 x $500k deal
