    Re: 2021 AFL Finals Series

    I'm worried about a few things Bulldogs related but playing away isn't one of them. When you look at our performances vs the top 8, we are worst at Marvel which is meant to be home.

    - We've beaten Port at AO (then lost at Marvel)
    - Lost to Cats after the siren at their dump
    - Beat the Dees at MCG (after losing at Marvel)
    - Beat Lions in Ballarat
    - Lost to Swans at Marvel
    - Beat GWS in Canberra
    - Lost to Essendon at Marvel

    Don't get me wrong, I'd rather a neutral venue etc but it won't be the thing that kills us.

    Over the lastt 3 years. There's been 3 true home prelims. The sides who had to play in semi then away are 3-0 over home teams with a week's rest.

    *!*!*!*! Buddy is still so lethal inside 50. Such a joy watching pure forward craft.

    Pretty entertaining 1st quarter. Swans transition is super dangerous, Giants midfield still runs very deep. Reckon this one’ll stay pretty close.

    Swans are great to watch and the way GWS have pulled it together after a nightmare start to the year is pretty admirable.

    Also, he's a massive ****hole but geez, Mumford still causes problems for opposition sides. Can we get a big beefy, wrecking ball ruckman one day?

    I am 100% with you on that ruck type (unless of course, we get an allround gun, which I am pretty sure you'd be okay with).

    Would compliment our midfield well + we have 2nd ruck/forward types that would provide a good mix.

    Toby Greene is a POS. But he plays football well.

    Interesting to see how the Swans respond here.

    GWS are playing well, and evenly.

    We knew, but Leon Cameron can seriously coach.

    Bazlenka would struggle to get a gig in that midfield.
