    Who's pumped for Friday night

    I'd say we all are on here. It is so good to finally get a Friday night match which will be watched by a large number of people and really put our club out there. I'm just hoping that we have a great win and get back on top of the heap. Will put the game day thread up tomorrow.

    Should be fun to watch us under the bright lights, even if we are undermanned.

    Still contemplating whether or not to go.

    I'm not pumped, I'm as nervous as f#ck. And fearing the worst in true Bulldog spirit.
    The curse is dead.

    Yes I can understand that too chef. I'm pumped but weary at the same time.

    I'm really pumped. Friday night, one v two, the old enemy.

    It doesn't get much bigger for a home and away match.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

    Win = great weekend

    Got my reserved seat ready to go and a few mates who are coming along, too.

    Cannot. Wait.

    Re: Who's pumped for Friday night

    This game reminds me of when we played Essendon in 1999. Two top four teams based in Victoria playing each other on a Friday night. The Bombers were severly undermanned on that occasion and were written off during the week (sound familiar)? Essendon ended up getting over the line by four points despite having Hird, Lloyd and Fletcher not on the ground when the final siren sounded. Hopefully the undermanned team comes away with the points on this occasion too.

    Re: Who's pumped for Friday night

    I look at at like this. We beat Norf by 23 points last year. Sure we have a few out but how much improvement does Dad's army have in them from last year compared to the natural skill and strength development of youth? Also, I reckon Scott will be easy to work out for Bevo. Their game plan is lazy relying on high scoring and high risk footy. Their back line couldn't catch a cold. Limit supply, create a contest against their tall forwards and Picken = Harvey and they're cooked.

    We'll be top of the ladder on Friday night and I'll have to bump the 2016 Premiership Thread.

    I'm nervous but going to the game anyway. Nothing better than beating Norf.
