      The 17,527 AFL journos need to write about something.

        They're all writing about how the dogs are playing with themselves.
        Seriously, I've never seen such biased coverage, ever.
        Wanker Carey AFL.com is just gushing about how easily the doggies are going to win... it just a question of by how much.
        Had to turn it off. He's a dickhead and we have a no-dickhead policy in place.
        Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
        Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

          I'm loving the Dog-fest. So many expectations on those young shoulders. Of course they'll win it - they've got here haven't they?

            Just seen footage of the Bulldogs training session today in front of their adoring fans. Makes me kinda glad I'm not a toothbrush salesman in Footscray.

              Yes, it doesn't seem like the scarf has been lucky so far, does it?

                Yeah, but somebody must be making a fortune selling bulldog pups.

                  While it's true the Swannies have been the better team for the majority of the season, they need to play the best footy on the day to win. I'm not hyping myself up, especially after the 2014 GF. The Bulldogs were good enough to make the GF and as such should be respected. The Swans absolutely must bring their manic pressure like the previous two games to suffocate the run of the Dogs.

                    It's not pretty is it? Some of this lot make the Collingwood cheer squad look positively urbane.

                      Did you see the photo of Reid boarding the plane?

                        I would assume all of the listed players for the swans would be going to Melbourne not just the 25 that get named. Granted the non named players may fly seperately

                            The Bulldogs didn't fluke it

                            They deserved to be there and they made GWS fall to their feet when GWS had a 14 pt leed in the 4th qtr !!!

                            For me It will come down to injuries

                            Ie
                            no Macca
                            no AA
                            no mills

                            Kennedy and Parker with reasonable bandaging after last game was a real concern re lateral movement vs the nimble midfield in general athletic doggies 22

                            If we loose a player or two early due to a soft tissue issue (that they have brought into the game) we wil be in serious trouble

                                If the Doogs pull off their remarkable Fairytale from 7th, I will certainly stay to applaud them....
                                They will want it so very very badly.... And I actually feel for them.
                                At least they won it once, Cronulla have never tasted it.

                                Horse and his boys want it just as much.
                                Do they want to return to Sydney with no flag in 2014 AND 2016.....
