    As to whether they are not playing if in blue? Totally discredited

      Expect really bad umpiring to keep Doggies in the contest. I am not one who thinks their mids unbeatable. I think we have just as much talent if not more.

      If we can't beat this mob I think we will have a very long season. They are not even close to a top eight position going on their list. They also have injury worries.

      We need to hit the contest hard and fast. We need to use the ball well. If we don't do that we are cactus. I am looking forward to seeing how Dawson and Blakey fit into our forward set up, not at the same time I would suggest unless Reid or Bud are not resting.

        I won't be too worried if we drop this one, the first game of the season is not a good indicator of whats to come. Round 1 of season 2018 Sydney defeated West Coast in Perth...

          The Bulldogs are so confident in the umpiring, the players are not even training this week.

            Those in blue either will or won’t be playing. Ditto those not in blue. It’s 100% accurate

              Yes and the West Coast played a pretty good team. The Bullies are ordinary. Plus tgry have injuries. I don't worry about first ups against a team that will be top 8 or even top 10 but this mob won't be that far up. Even warming up we should beat them

                It’s a brand new season , we all start from scratch. Definitely not a moral although I think we will win. If they take your attitude in though we will get thumped.

                  Don't you think I know that. They are not the ones with that attitude I am. But then again they ain't that good. They have injuries for a start. Why not have confidence. Dermie once said that the Hawks ALWAYS went into a match thinking they were better than the opposition. They believed they were the best, could beat anyone and they were and did. They were great sides those Hawks sides of the '80's there was a huge rivalry with Essendon.

                  What I' m saying is this is a game we should not lose.

                    I am predicting a big smashing victory.

                    The bulldogs have no rucks, and no big defence men to control our forwards.

                    Even their forward line is pretty thin.

                    This should be an easy win, and a good warm up for Adelaide!

                        And if we lose we'll probably beat flag favourites Crows next week, oh hang on, they're only the flag favourites here in the Adelaide media, not in the real world!

                              'Tis a very tall team selected.

                              I'm not surprised to see Melican named as he has been talked up by the Longmire and McVeigh over the last couple of days, but I think with him and AA (and Reg and Rampe), and then Reid, Buddy and Blakey named (and Sinclair), it just feels like one tall too many.
