      Or maybe the aim to kick at least 1 goal every qtr.. only running at 50% over the past 2 games.

      Isn't it awesome to grouped amongst the 'irrelevant' teams again... back to the good 'ole days!

          I'll be going.

          My brother was happy last week - he is a Magpies supporter and I was disappointed. This week we are coming up against my Mums team the Demons. Hopefully by 4:30pm there abouts on Saturday I'll be the happy one this week.

          Carn the Bulldogs!

              Glad you see yourself as a 'real' supporter.

              I must be an unreal supporter then... Amazing even.

                Did I mention you? You must be feeling guilty. Pretty sure I was generalising.

                  It is a home game so hopefully we can get a decent crowd in. I personally love the Saturday afternoon time slot.

                    Melbourne haven't handled expectation at all in the past, so after a week of past players and media experts declaring them the premiers in waiting, I'm going in optimistic that they get ahead of themselves and we cause an upset.

                    We aren't as bad as we have been the past two weeks. Hoping that the 8 day break for us has freshened a few, and the 6 day break, conditions in NT and travel can flatten the Dees a bit. Interesting that they made no changes after the short break and NT game.

                      Bevo Press Conference:

                      * Hopefully we’ll walk a bit taller with Dale back, he has a physical presence when he plays. He’ll get some pep out of the boys.

                      * We look at fact we were absolute to score for a couple of quarters - why and how were able to. We can be encouraged by that. The alarm bells aren’t ringing just yet, just need to leverage on the good things

                      * Marcus Adams got a deep cork in his calf, so we’ve taken a conservative approach and won’t play VFL this weekend.

                      * We’ll look after Zaine and hopefully he’ll be right after the bye. No concerns, but we just need to take a conservative approach when it comes to concussions.

                        Alarm bells not ringing after the last two weeks... I must have a bad case of high pitched alarm sounding tinnitus.

                          BD, were some words missed here?

                          Makes no sense, to me atleast.
