If there's one side unlikely to expose our lack of key talls it's the bulldogs.

That said they have a plethora of medium sized forwards who are super damaging and a fast, skilled midfield that should enjoy Subiaco so it will be an exciting game in much the same way the Round 1 game was - with the benefit of hindsight it was one of the games of the year, overlooked at the time since it was considered a battle between a couple of 2015s expected minnow sides. Now they're playing for top 4 positions

I remember watching that round 1 game and thought man these two sides are good. Little did I know how right I was.

It's a somewhat popular meme.

Yet another big game, but then again if you want to be counted as a serious contender you have to keep playing and winning them.

Looking forward to see how much both sides have improved since Round 1. Dogs are probably the closest to a second team I support.

How can you lose something you don't have?

Oh, there are ways:

 

[Procrastinator35]

Should be a ripper....Go Dogs GO!

 

[Keys]

Should be a ripper....Go Dogs GO!

Go Port Power

 

[Procrastinator35]

Go Port Power

Wrong thread & you could have at least conjured a commensurate & relevant google image....Are you trying to imitate Fremantles' effort?

 

[FootyJunkie]

Worried about this one. Need to win one of the next two to lock top 4, and I dont want to have to go to Adelaide needing to win it to finish 4th.

top 4? pfft... it's top 2 we need to aim for

Can the dogs Backline contain the wce forward line?

Serious spread of goalkickers

 

[WCEswift]

In Brad Sheppard we trust.

Could ask the same question going the other way.

Wouldn't be surprised to see a seriously high scoring shootout.

Unfortunately what could be a good game will be ruined by a red clash jumper which has only ever drawn insipid uninspired performances from its wearers. Congrats on your home QF.

FFS I do. I would love nothing more than to go to Adelaide needing a win to make top 4.
**** I would give it to all my Crows "Tex is better than JK mates" flog campaigners.
**** them and the scooter they rode in on. Smash them at home and enjoy their salty tears.
Are you ****in with us or do you go for Freo?

Swans: GWS, saints & gc
Dogs: wc, North, brisbane

Swans should easily beat the Saints and gc. The dogs should beat north and Brisbane on form.

Next weekend will decide the top 4. Swans win, dogs loose Swans will finish 4.dogs win, I'd top them for the top 4. Will be a great weekend of footy.

Not sure if it's the most critical game of the last few weeks. Based on what I saw today, Eagles should win.

Dogs going well, but Eagles at home in this sort of form? I'll take West Coast.

Doggies have had a good run lately but of their eight wins from last nine, they were all against non-top eight teams. They'll get spanked.

 

[fidstar]

The Eagles played Hawks last week. That was a much bigger game.

 

[The_Flying_Egg]

Doggies have had a good run lately but of their eight wins from last nine, they were all against non-top eight teams. They'll get spanked.

The last 3 wins have been by an average of over 80 points ... regardless of opposition you can't do much more than that

Now you know what Eagles supporters had to put up with for so long.

 

[jod23]

The Dogs are good.

We are better and at home.

I expect victory.

 

[JADED]

Looking back to round 1 - Cripps 5 goals + McGovern also played very well. Both wont be out there this week.
Dogs rampaging, but so are we on our home deck.
We've stood up well in all our "big test" games v Richmond, Sydney, Hawks & Freo.
West Coast by 28.
