[compact72]

Never thought this would happen so soon

Nervous as hell


Go the doggies

 

[BiggSticks]

Oh boy here we go.. no sleep for me tonight

 

[Dry Rot]

Go get them today Dogs!

Cave their heads in like we did to Ward last weekend.

I'll be there in spirit, while actually attending a Swans mate's BBQ in Sydney as the token bad guy.

And the winner.

 

[In Repair]

Those of us going need to make as much noise as we can!!!!

Go Dogs!!!

 

[Hyflr]

Yesssss, go the Doggies.

 

[Matt Stevic]

Come on Doggies!

 

[samass03]

Let's go doggies

 

[compact72]

Have a nervous feeling that Bev will do something magical

 

[Dav1d]

I'm ready.

Give them hell boys.

 

[giblj]

Oh. My. Bont. It's actually happening.

 

[dogwatch]

I was too young to remember 1954. Too far from Melbourne to hear anything about our 1961 appearance.

But I'll be there today. Cheering. Believing. Maybe even shedding a few tears.

Can't help thinking about all those Bulldog heroes who had sublime skills but never got to play in a Grand Final. And the unsung supporters who turned out year after year in forlorn hope, and never got to see this wonderful day. The wait is over.

Let's do it. This is our time.

Go the Dogs!

 

[Matt Stevic]

Dunkley Normy? We can only hope...

 

[Doggies7]

Can't sleep. Come on Doggies, this is it. Can't wait for the bounce, so nervous...

 

[BRWB]

What a time to be Bulldog. Can't sleep so some ideas which can be smashed...

Cordy to blanket Rampe - has been critical to their rebound

First few minutes - Stringer to start off the back of the square and plough through - they won't catch him. Get him involved.

Hamling on Buddy, Roberts resting ruck, Wood to exploit Richards and help, Moz to help on Bud and blanket McGlynn. Boyd on Papley. JJ Rohan.

Bont - slow starter. Our biggest bodied mid. It's outrageous but just for the first qtr - Use him as a run with on Kennedy who has been pivotal for their quick starts - guys a wrecking ball. (Like Bartel to Hayes?)

Macrae to be accountable for Parker if he is fast enough.

Back the rest of our mids to outrun and destroy them.

Smith to play on McVeigh and hurt him, drag him deep, make him sprint and pressure that calf

Boyd/Rough to run fwd and run their rucks off their legs.

i think Mills and McVeigh are going to be the "if only we didnt" moment. it will only take someone to get tangled in a contested congestion and a stray knee go into a calf or hamstring and they could be one or two down.

Cmon Dogs, i cant wait to get to the G and enjoy the day

Injury troll.
Uncool.

Good luck Doggies fans may the best team win.

 

[100action]

Oh boy

 

[Changaneen]

Go you Dogs. Go. Put that passion on the MCG. Bring it. Dont give in.

Anybody else finding it hard to sleep?

I really never thought we would be here so soon. I joked about it all the time and said that we were due, but didn't think it would actually happen now.

I didn't even realize the time, my heart begun racing when I watched some of the lead up to the Grand Final. My mistake, now I will definitely find it hard to fall asleep.

 

[dergert]

Can't sleep.... Buddy will eat me

 

[ThirdLegUp]

thinking of trying to sleep again... while having a black coffee and eating chicken chips...

This is it folks. This is the day we have dreamed about.

All we wanted was the chance... it has arrived!

 

[giblj]

Remember guys, last time we played them Buddy kicked 5 and Parker, Hannebery and Kennedy all had 30+ and we still won. We can do this.

 

[Ozil]

Avoiding thinking too much about the game.

Just closing my eyes and going in swinging, hoping like hell this team has one more in them. I think they do.
