      Adelaide are pretty bad. Just no fight or spirit it seems.
      TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.

        Adelaide are currently offering up teams a platter of confidence and percentage boosting to any team that can firmly remind them they are no good. Oh man are they no good.

        When we get them we need to hit them hard and early. Batter their feeble, slow midfield. I'm talking a 50 points to none Ballaratesque first quarter job to brutally crush their spirits. Get Bruce a ten goal haul to ease his troubled mind. Their defence is probably their best line so it's actually a pretty good challenge to try to atone and use inside 50 dominance to play our forwardline into some semblance of system and form.

        I think more than any other year, this year is about momentum, confidence, and wellbeing. West Coast and Richmond were pretty awful until they scrapped an ugly one and things snowballed from there. I don't think Port are actually anywhere near a 'game clear on top good' but are feeling pretty damn good about things and are doing enough to get it done.

            Yeah the Adelaide game has all the hallmarks of a typical bulldogs loss.

              I just want to deal with the upcoming Brisbane game, which I'm taking the family to.
              If the Dogs and Lions kick for goal like they did this round, its gonna be the most frustrating game to watch.

                    I still love beating them, but wasn't to be this year.

                      True. I suppose the concept remains relevant, buy the talk was premature.

                        But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

                          Gutsy win from Collingwood. They should have been miles ahead at half time
                          Sydney couldn’t sustain allowing a team that much territory and win .

                            How do the Saints manufacture so many Joe the Gooses each game?
                            Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

                              I have no idea. They always seem to have 1-2 extra players at every contest around the ground. It’s like they’re playing 19v18.

                              Max King is such a threat thought that he’s drawing an extra defender or two each contest

                                GC are a much improved side. Next year they will be even better.
