Barry Hall v Swans

[Go Swannies]

It will be a strange run to the GF if we get there. We have to go through Baz and hope he plays 2010 finals like the 2006 GF, not 2005. And we have to hope that Schneids goes missing in finals again - rather than play as he did in the Saints Prelim in 2005.

Indeed!

And if we meet the Saints in two weeks then Roosy will be up against his old partner: Ross Lyons! I wonder if ex swan Dempster will be in their side? It could be Mummy Vs Jolly in the GF!

upper cut

I hope that the Rhesus Monkey gives big bad Potato Head a Rump Staker style uppercut?

Anyone think that maybe the Bulldogs were foxing cos they had a few injuries and just decided to throw the game against Collingwood in preparation for this week ala Fremantle against Hawthorn in Launceston?

hmmmm.... That is distinct possibility, given that Rodney Eade seemed a bit more philosophical, almost blas?, than angry about the loss the other night. Very out of character. I thought he was just shell shocked. But why would you rob yourselves of a chance of a week off to rest those same injured players? (that is unless Eade figured he did not have a chance against the collywobbles anyway)

In my opinion the only hope the Dogs had to win the flag was to somehow beat the Pies and get a week off to try and rest some of their multitude of injured/carrying niggles players. Even if they beat us this week, there is no way imo that they can carry their injury toll (As well as Johnson, who frankly is a shadow of his former self) and win the flag.

The way that the sports people on Prime Ch.7 were talking tonight the Dogs are going to be lucky to field a team. It seems that every 2nd player is carrying an injury of some kind.Trying to lull us into a false sence of security I wonder?

They were just talking about our game on AFL 360 and i think David King had a very good point. He said that our game had been a very brutal game and produced some stats to back him up and that gives the dogs some hope. I reckon he's on the money!

Does anyone reckon this could be Bazza's last year? If he has decided to retire and the dogs are behind on the scoreboard, he may blow another foo-foo valve in the fourth, decide go out in a blaze of glory and start swinging.

I dont think he will go out with a blaze of fists. Even though he left on bad terms I think he holds the playing group in high regard.
