Game Day Freo v Dogs

[Wetdog]

Anyone else having issues with NBN in Melbourne? My internet provider tells me it is down in some parts.

How am I meant to watch the match?

But where do I go for a mature, objective and accurate commentary of the match which is based in reality?

Better avoid Fox Footy too then

My Kayo has been shithouse the last couple of days. You're not the only one.

Might be a tight one
If Melbourne and Richmond can do it, so can we
Good luck
Go Dogs

DESPITE HAVING THE SECOND BEST RECORD IN THE AFL AND SOME TOUGH INJURIES IF WE DONT WIN THIS WE ARE TOAST


or maybe it’s one of 23 games and it’d be nice to win but let’s see how we go. It’ll definitely be a test, always is.

Reckon the dogs usually give you a pretty good indication of how they’re going to go in the first 5-10 minutes of the match. Reckon we still have the quality to get the job done

Yes his marking is the key to our forward line, but while our midfield is thin, I would LOVE to see Naughton take a few midfield rotations. He’s a vicious tackler with solid leg speed, we’ve got a tall lineup, I’d love to see his body in there destroying people.

let’s say in this game you’d swing Cordy forward, have English forward with Bruce so plenty of marking power still and you’d still have Gardy and Keath as two pillars down back

Cannot kick though and his awareness isn't great on the run. The amount of times he's made the snap decision to play on and either been tackled or been heavily pressured to dispose of it poorly is way too often for me to entertain the idea of him running through the middle. Yes he is ferocious but his kicking will be a liability.

Would expect a comfortable 4 goal win. Interesting if Martin’s inclusion makes much difference to clearances. Will be watching Gardener and Scott closely. Did not rate Ryan’s VFL game a few weeks back and his back in. Would love to see him take a couple of contested marks.

A home game against the bulldogs always brings out the best in Freo. They’ve been the least accurate team all year but they won’t miss tonight.

OMG, I just hope the boys are switched on today and play how they did with Port.

[In doG we Trust]

To start with a positive, at least we're not playing on a Friday night as we did against Richmond & Melbourne. Maybe we just don't like large rating games. Given this is likely to be the reverse, put us down for a commendable 34 point interstate win.

That was no truer than last week..

You do make me laugh, Norm.

Im not sure if that's a compliment.

You can only win one premiership playing Cordy forward. It doesn’t work the second time.

Yeah it was pretty apparent last week

Well make sure that you have the bottom of the TV placed a few inches above your partners' left shoulder!

6.40 on a Sunday night... is this because both WA teams are playing today + it’s a public holiday in Perth tomorrow?

Such a fan friendly time.

 

[Some Idiot]

Why would we not win are 9/2 for a reason. Losing only to the top team and last years premiers. We have beaten GWS and Port on the road both better teams than Freo. Yes we have a few injuries at present but we have good depth.

The injuries are not as big a factor as having to train in Sydney all week and fly in one day before the game while the opposition has completely uninterrupted prep.

God I hate that Perth time slot. You wait all wknd for the footy, get the hopes up we’re a chance of sneaking a win. You’re even prepared to put up with Gerard Healey waxing lyrical for 3 hours over the Perth side. Only then for the home side to kick ten in the first quarter.

Maybe today will be different...

 

[Mantis Toboggan]

Oh my god, it’s just dawned on me that Brereton is going to be commentating on our game.

 

[Hobdog]

Bloody hell, what a painful time slot to be hanging around waiting for
