This Game against North is Our Finals Game. The Equation is Simple. Win it & your still in it, Lost it & your out.

Somehow I don't think Saddo was the difference between the teams yesterday....

+1

Next you'll be wanting Pagan back!!

Hadley gives us nothing and I doubt will play seniors this year. Our advantage is speed so why slow us down with him? They wont drop Fisher or Russell as they produced what they've been doing and that's obviously getting a pass mark from the MC. They will look at Fishers upside (at least he is getting shots on goal) and Russell didnt do much wrong and got his customary five tackles in.

The continuing push for Anderson baffles me. He is the second worst kick at the club (I assume Benjamin is still listed...). No chance to play again this year.

Saddington was terrible. He was lucky he didnt have more kicked on him yesterday as his man gave him the slip several times only to go unnoticed. If Bower played a half decent game yesterday he will be back in. I cant find a suitable matchup for Saddington - he is a (very) poor mans Thornton.

In: Bower, Betts
Out: Browne (but Id rather they drop Cloke because he is just too slow for a guy who wins zero hitouts), Saddington

My changes would be:

In
- Bower
- Betts

Out
- Saddington (stiff - but he isn't the future)
- Browne (really like the kid but he has plenty of time on his side)

Sure, I'm like a broken record. But i really would like to wipe the smug flower grins off Shagger's and Boomer's faces.

Maybe Cloke can do just that with his arse.

North this week are playing two talls in their forward line, Thompson and Jones with Hale rucking and pinch hitting forward.
Petrie has been rucking since McIntosh went down but can also drift forward.
So unless Brown plays V Carlton Jamison, Waite, Saddington and Thornton is too top heavy so it's Jamison, Thornton or Saddington out.

i don't normally say things sort of thing, but because he was shite thats why.

white kicked 3 on him and westoff one.

Didn't quite get that comment either. For me Hadley would make a huge difference to our line up. Is a big body who can win the ball and is also skilful and knows how to kick a goal.

Hadley would need another run in the 2s i reckon

IN: Eddie
OUT: Unlucky Browne

I reckon the 3 talls and having another option up forward to go to worked well when they all didn't fly against each other. Fisher looked more comfortable as the 3rd tall also

North our certainly our bogey side. They are hard at it blue coller workers. Always gonna be a tough side to beat.

They are well coached, which not many people accept.

Gonna be tough. I'd love Eddie to come back in.

Giving the Bulldogs a whooping - although the doggies seem to have a habit of taking it easy in the final rounds of a season.

I agree. Common sense.

Going to be very tough, they are playing well today

Dogs kicked 6 out of the last 7 before North snagged the last goal or the 3rd quarter.

North are up by 4 goals.


If the Dogs wintoday, then beat Brisbane next week - and we knock off North, we are in the 8.

With North following up against Geelong the following week.



Next week is the penultimate round of the year for us in terms of finals...

Norf in front by 20 5.5 mins to go

Did you get the 6 mins from Fox or something? They're saying it's the 22nd minute mark.
