May I be so bold as to start the thread for tonight's game? I'll be listening to 3AW on line with the replay on ABC Asia Pacific at 10:30pm (Perth time) tonight.
Come on boys, kick more that 14 goals, win and have the final at the TD next week!
Go Blues!!!!!

7 goals in the first quarter, up by 6.5. GO YOU GOOD THING!

What a quarter of footy!!!

Two very different coaching methods

Bulldogs handball at all costs, allowing us to flood back. They handball to a player under pressure. Carlton hardly handball while in the corridor, just get it into the 50 quickly, allowing for one on one situations where defenders will be under a lot of pressure

Livo doing a fine job on Grant

Cory Mcgrath also providing some muscle in at the centre square bounces

Interesting to see Campo playing the same role that Skinny lappin played last year

Thank god for Pagan

Hard at it, skillful and moving the ball quickly. Great quater from the Digby!
Let's nail this game in the second quarter!
Go Blues!

Scored every time we went into the f50 in that 2nd qrt ( doggies 16 f50 entries ). Outscored the doggies that qrt but some of the signs didn't look good, not running as hard, pressure and tackling was off.

Don't forget we have only had a 6 day break compared to 8 days for the doggies.

Still look good, only 2 goals of for having a home final.

Loved Walkers snap that qrt but his kick in the backline was a shocker....

Jorden had a shocker of a qrt, gave away some frees and let Jonston kick a couple.

All signs are good, still have fresh legs on the bench.

Big 3rd qrt coming up.....

Have to leave the broadcast - fingers crossed for a definitive third term! Go Blues!

PJ WAS JUST ON TV, ahaha, wata king, fev took a mark, kicked a goal, and camera man looks right down PJ's throat while hees bowing to Fev.
Go PJ.

Yeh i thought it was him

Scotland having a great game

Livo on fire!

Any news on scores, times, stats etc?

To state the bleeding obvious, a really positive result. Good for the Club's finances, should help membership, it will give the players the reward and experience of playing in a grand final and most importantly, gives players a huge boost of confidence. Kudos to Pagan and the players. An amazing turnaround, given the nadir of a couple years ago.

6 goals 1 in the (dare I say it) Premiership Quarter!

OK, It's official!

The Lid's Off!

Well done Blues, great win, lets make it 4 in a row, and win the whole thing next week. Everyone that can make it, lets get down there, and make it tough for the Eagles players.

Yeah great win by the boys this week. I may end up going next week after all!
