Changes v Bombers

[Next Waiting]

One that dismantled ours in Q4 of Round 5 last year.

How quickly people forget. If Gawn was their ruckman they'd be diabolical to play against. Mind you if my aunty had balls she'd be my uncle.

 

[Rash]

Port smashed bombers last week and we are a better team than Port especially in the midfield.

Would be disappointed if we won by anything less than 10 goals.

your not better than port, your midfield may be better, but not your team holistically.

 

[bullish23]

My guess is Sanders will be the sub.

Keep the lid on lad. I rate Port, but let’s be real here - your wins have come against dogshit teams, as have the Dogs. Nobody can honestly say who is better right now

Hope not

It's a silly discussion given we haven't played each other this season.
One thing I can be sure of though is that our midfield will rate theirs. As much as we like to pump up our own, their midfield bettered ours twice last season.

My guess is Sanders will be the sub.

There are 9 defenders listed - Jones, JOD, Buku, Richards, Williams, JJ, Bramble, Duryea & Dale

We only ever play 7 defenders. Assuming Williams plays wing, one of Dale or Bramble will be the sub. The only exception to this would be if Bevo moved one of those two to the wing but given neither have spent a single minute there this season, that would be unlikely.

Hard to say at this point of the season.

All I can say with any confidence is this was a ripper game:

 

[cherrypie]

Richmond, Sydney, Collingwood and Port supporters all on one page in a Bulldogs thread regarding a game against Essendon. Get them a GPS

 

[go the dogs]

Dale will be sub

 

[hutchy31]

Anyone know if there will be walk up GA tickets? Was going to take my boys and a couple of their mates at short notice but no availability on Ticketmaster.

Gia talking to Libba Bont and VDM in the middle before the game.

I would start Macrae next week and define a role for him.l hope he can still impact.
Daniel needs to regain confidence at Footscrays.Its shot atm.
Bramble stays ,either JJ or Duryea go out.
O'Donnell must come in.
Get Buku on the tackling machine.Employ a rugby coach. As missed tackles cost games.So do silly free kicks. Otherwise his intercept marking is Easton Wood like.
Sanders needs re setting or fine tuning in VFL and Garcia is ready to go.
Out Daniel Duryea Sanders
In O'Donnell , Garcia, Arty as sub

Regarding our defence from the kick in - which is none, i think we should just hand the ball to am opposition player on the wing cause thats where it always end up.

English to ff. Lobb in to ruck. Marra to chf. Darcy swapping with Lobb, Marra and English off the bench.

Naughton to chb. Play only one of JOD or Khamis at BP. Stick with Khamis for now unless Saints field triple towers.

Drop Dale, Williams. Libba out injured.

So, out Dale, Williams, JOD, Libba (inj).

In Garcia, Lobb, Harmes, Clarke. Baker to sub.

B Duryea, Jones, Khamis
Hb Richards, Naughton, Johanissen
C Bramble, Garcia, Sanders
Hf Weightman, Ugle-Hagen, Vandermeer
F West, English, Clarke
R Lobb, Bontempelli. Treloar
I Darcy, Harmes, Macrae, Gallagher
Sub Baker.

Apologies are due to VDM. What he lacks in skills, he makes up for in at least having a go. More than can be said for some of his team mates last week.
