Selection issue I’ve missed or just a heap a cash for Port?

Hawks very very rarely lose 4 in a row, if ever.

Blame MW. He liked what he saw in China.

It should also be noted that those losses were away from the MCG.

Which means nothing really in the scheme of things except that they will probably beat Essendon.

Big game for the tigs, I'm worried about it. Really need this win.

With our next games away to Port & Geelong & then a "home game" at Etihad V Sydney where we are poo could see us drop right back to the pack in the run home. I'd take 2 wins from that lot right now if I could the way we have been playing.

Doesn't take much cash early in the week for a move like this

Also like Gold Coast
Giants are no chance in Adelaide
Hawks hopefully bounce back.
Ess to beat Tigers, tigers just off a little at the moment, took a long time to shake an awful ST Kilda
Rest of the games as expected



Have you been drinking?

We'll know come the end of the weekend

True. But also I was saying it means nothing if we beat them in Perth as we know where we have to beat them for it to matter.

Umm, have you seen their run home?
Ess x 2, Geel x 2, Port, Syd, Adel, Coll, GWS
Easiest draw ever for a reigning premier - ever?

I meant to this point.
only 2 previous finalists in the first 10 rounds is a gift

Yet if you switched their first half of the season draw around with the second half, there’d be people bleating about their “soft” draw coming into the finals...

oh Benny.. Have you even looked into the reasoning behind the "easiest" draw ever?

We have our annual season opener v Carlton, then our annual ANZAC eve clash with Melbourne which is always followed with a return game v Collingwood due to the similar days break turnaround. We also have our Annual Dreamtime game v Essendon this round which ruled out playing them early in the season.

Is it our fault that 3 of the above 4 didn't make finals last year? If they all had we still would have played them all in the first few rounds. We've had two interstate trips against finalists from last year outside of that.

As the ladder currently sits we've also played 5 of the other 7 teams in the top 8.

As Spargo said have a look at our run home its filled with finalists from last year.

What are the bulldogs paying vs Melb this week? Montys I reckon, get on them. Correction week for Melbourne.
