Hawthorn and Bulldogs clash - Friday night

Re: Hawthorn and Bulldogs clash - Friday night

A huge stage for us. Friday night finals footy against what most would see as a hot favourite to win, and possibly give the Cats a shake. I can't wait to see how things go, the supporters heading in, the atmosphere and all that.

I think mostly the Dogs fans will be anxious this finals series, unlike the Hawks who will be right on the wagon making a lot of noise but I'd expect a win to really wake the fans up on our sideand we'll be in for a hell of a ride.

Exciting times, regardless of form, we're there and therefore we're a chance to do something special.

Bloody typical. The Wreckery play in Melbourne that night and I've got tickets to go.





Bugger!

If its at the Corner hotel you have no problem even if its a 8.10 game start.
Final bands start about 11 -11:30.

Re: Hawthorn and Bulldogs clash - Friday night

Looks like Hawthorn are resting Crawford this week. We should do the same, ie rest a few.

I'm really hoping that its Friday night, I have work on Saturday and Sunday and I'm not good with asking people to take my shifts...in fact I've never done it.

It looks a lock for Friday, but even so, if you've never done it surely they'd understand. It's a Dale Morris gloving Buddy thing

Yeah, I would ask, I would just leave out the footy part...I can't miss Dale playing on Franklin, or a final for that matter. I was in New Zealand for the Collingwood final (against my will), so there's no way I'd miss a final again.

How does everyone think we will go in a night final at the MCG?

Actually when was the last time we played on Friday night at the 'G'?

Dont want to sound defeatist/negative, but just got to love how the AFL gives us a Friday night game @ the G (abeait its not our 'home' game) when we havent played one there all season...

The last night final there was against West Coast when it was hot and windy and we lost by less than a goal - a game we should have won.

Its not a done deal yet and maybe the AFL will prefer Geelong v North

Re: Hawthorn and Bulldogs clash - Friday night

I think Friday night would be perfect fixturing and makes a lot of sense

It is likely to be a cracking game pitting the two most likely challengers to Geelong - so its the perfect show piece for the AFL

Win or Lose we will have plenty of time to prepare for our next game

Re: Hawthorn and Bulldogs clash - Friday night

Friday night games tend to make or break the weekend.

Hopefully it is Friday night so I can back up on Sunday to see Mooroolbark U18's, 2nd's and Seniors play off in the EFL Third Division Grand Final.

They also tend to give you a weekend.

That game was at TD.

I think it would be back in 06 in round 8 or 9 vs Collingwood, Murf did his knee that night and we got beat by 5 goals.

I'm pretty sure that was TD, unless my memory's worse than I thought
