Dial up speed

I have checked out a few times because of this.

I lack patience

Flat track bully. I’ll notice when he wins high pressure games or finals for them regularly.

Today seems fast compared to the last week, I noticed a big slowdown starting a few weeeks ago.

Last year the game vs Freo was played in Perth.
We lost this game in the last after leading for 3/4ers
8.2 vs 9.4 3/4 time
15.4 vs 10.7 Final score

Saad got injured in the last.
Midfield dropped their pressure.
Hewett and Cripps played huge games, but rest of midfield, well Lord tagged serong with some success
Last 9 minutes they kicked 4 goals. Phaaaaaaaaarque
Familiar?

Carlton
Out: Motlop, Fogarty, McKay, De Koning, Acres, Durdin, O'Farrell, Pittonet, Hewett, White, Saad, F Young
In: Cerra, Smith, McGovern, Ainsworth, Florent, Kemp, Walsh, Hayward, Newman, Reidy, Dean, Byrne

I think we are a stronger team this year.

I understand why Moir.
He was good last week in periods, and other times a statue.
Likes his cameo in the midfield.
I have a hunch he's the medium sized marking forward to allow Gov to backline, hence no Derksen.

Flynn has been a great lead up forward, ala Betts. He's also got a good kick for goal and passing.
Lets hope Byrne, who also has strong hands like Flynn proves he should have been retained for this game, ahead of Flynn.

Can't allow Brayshaw and Serong to find connnection and synergy.
Lord will go to Serong. No brainer.

Based on what I saw in the VFL last week, I would have played Saad.
Backline doesn't look quick.

Regardless, I have a good feeling about this game.
Freo are favourites, but they didnt impress me last weeek vs Eagles.
I expect a close game. Hopefully, we can win a close one.
Would I put money on us winning? No....but.....anything can happen this week.

Delivered to him on a platter.

Swans dominance over an undermanned WB, allowed the ball movement forward.

Charlie was covered by a HBFer.

Easy night for Sydney. All they had to do was get it forward, whereas the doggies fought hard, even with 2 of their main playmakers carrying injuries, but could not hit the scoreboard at the other end. Add English out, which allowed Grundy to do what he liked, plus some biased umpiring, and the result was a foregone conclusion.

A) Super slow at the moment. It is a Carlton board though, so it was running well for the first half of the week...
B) Why is every other team with a few key injuries 'brave' and 'fighting hard' but for much of last year when several of our key players were out, crickets...??

Not that simple. We didn’t and don’t have a list management issue within KP or ruck areas.
If I were a bulldogs fan, I’d be asking list management questions.

We've had some funny games against Freo over the years...

Aren't the Dogs the tallest team in the league? They've got giants everywhere, just that a ridiculous number of them are injured at the same time.

My partner and I will be getting the Dockers bus to and from the ground
It’s a 3 hour trip
We got the tickets and travel tickets a few weeks ago
If we hadn’t purchased the tickets before the Collingwood game we wouldn’t be going because we have zero respect for this club.
Everyone on this site is entitled to an opinion inference state what they think
We both decided to go
We enjoy the trip
We paid our tickets arranged the dog to be fed by friends etc so let’s go
And I can listen to the Ankle Sore Podcast coming back
Both my partner and I have no respect for this club and feel very different about it this week
It has stooped to new lows and as usual hasn’t taken ownership in handling a very delicate situation poorly

I love the club I have supported for 55 years
I dislike the people who run it
For Voss to deflect and call out the media is the oldest trick in the book and is pathetic
In hindsight we got it wrong and apologise
That’s what should have been said
How hard is it
Because it’s easier to forgive

Why do I feel an upset is on the cards? Probably cause there's zero expectations on us to win. This is usually when we play well

Just for fairness sake, lets wait until the actual details are released before you apportion blame to all involved.

Enjoy the game!

Looking forward to seeing our potential realised.

I don't mind the inclusions. As long as Young plays back and Harry is second ruck. With Freo's size in the front half, I think Young will unfortunately be required behind the ball.
Especially if Cox rests in the front half.
I don't agree with Moir's inclusion but they must have their reasons. It's rewarding laziness and half arsed efforts IMHO.

Hopefully we play a small forward line and McGovern stays forward. Get it in there fast and keep it low. Aim to have minimal intercept marks in our front half. If you're going slowly, kick it along the deck. Favour our smalls and not their talls.

Are you going so you have chance to tell Ollie how stupid he is for having respect for the club? I hope you don’t get that chance.

I wouldn’t bother.

If we win all the whingers will be saying it proves how wrong we were to have EJ as part of the team. If we lose all the whingers will be saying it proves how wrong we were to have EJ as part of the team
