Need to decide whether I'm flying to Adelaide by the end of the day, but assuming I'm not, where in Melbourne is best to watch it? Never been to libbas pub before, will it be packed?

Port and Collingwood both beat Adelaide and Richmond nearly did too

And that collingwood match was especially instructive because the Pies pressure broke Adelaide completely. Crows tried matching it for a quarter and then gassed out and just couldn't keep up for the remaining 3 quarters

this is a match though where Crows will 100% have the better more accurate kickers

Missing easy set shots or getting into the forward 50 20 times but only scoring 5% of times is not going to go down well against a team with Crows' accuracy and good kicking

Hey Guys,

Planning on doing a convoy with a few friends and our little ones! Just wondering if anyone has seen the categories for tickets so we can try and get tickets in the same area?

Does anyone think it’s possible that the club will go back to our original Sons of the Scray song any time in the future? I’d love to see it. Our current song just seems so uninspired and lacks the classic nature of our original.

R.west is a great midfield option.

R.Lobb needs to prove goal kicking ability or put him in defence.

I think khamis has proven goal accuracy and could be way better utilised as a forward. Defensively will 100% need more height against geelong or adeleide.

Matt kenedy was going off. Hopefully libba can fill his shoes next week.

Josh dolan could & should probably be replaced by oskar baker.

Bont looks completely dialed and even more motivated after having his baby.

Luke kennedy has a fantastic tackling ability for his amount of games.

Sando, freij, hynes all great. They keep being there when we need a release. Keep hunting in packs.

Arty jones could really be anything. Loved watching his growth. Loving his enthusiam an effort even more.

JOD, he really just needs another key defender to share the load.

Richards, hes is geniunley the talisman of this new bulldogs high intensity, high pressure penetrating game style. Keep leading the way.

We saw some horrifying fumbles and awful passes tonight but these two players really stood out to me

I have arty jones signed game worn boots :)

Pies supporter who's been on the beers admittedly.

Can't hate you people even when you make me cry a bit.

GL against the cats / crows!! I'll be barracking.

#sidebyside or something.

Matt Kennedy the king!! Shame he got concussed. I also have a feeling Arty Jones is gonna get a blazer next season! Suffer pies! THANK YOU DOGGIES!!!!

New favourite second team. You got us into the top 6 and now beat Collingwood who if we played would’ve for sure beat us. I hope Melbourne win so we play them instead of you and you continue your streak. DOGGIE DOGGIE DOGGIE BARK BARK BARK.

Great game! Imagine how much we would have won by if we had Daicos in our team instead of Bont too

Really rate your side, especially the Bont. Would love to see you guys go deep into the finals. Good luck.

Update: Ticket has found a home

Was going to the game but ended up getting sick so can't get there. Might as well let another dogs fan have the ticket.

You would be sitting next to my partner so here's the criteria:

1. No Creeps
2. You aren't someone who is going to spend 2 hours yelling at the umpires and our players.

Cross-posting the preview article for tonight's final against the pies.

Team announced, Timmy and Naughts in. Lachy Carmichael omitted.

Team is looking strong.

If you know you know.

Right lads 👍 North supporter here 😭 right behind the boys for the Pies game , should be a cracker Friday night , hopefully a big crowd , I'm expecting 90 K plus , not sure if Libba is injured or not , hopefully he plays

Could this become a chain of moves for us? I really like Timmy as person and he's good around the ground, but I can see this domino falling in a way that works...

English follows Rudi Ellis to NSW, but we extract pick 7 plus change for a contracted All Australian.

Pick 7 becomes the high pick Port needs for their Cochrane issues that Geelong can't match, plus our natural first rounder is higher, so we force the Butters deal to go our way.

Then we tap Briggs on the shoulder (sorry Richmond) to see how he'd like to be rucking for Bont, Butters and Richards in a premiership side (plus some of the cash we don't pay English) - at no trade cost to us.

Then Butts, also a free agent, might be up for a lockdown defender role in a side with a midfield like that, he shouldn't be overworked! We probably lose Khamis, but this might give us better balance for similar cash.

As crazy as it sounds, with two free agents in that mix who are only on 'reasonable' money, we might even have something left over in both picks and TPP at the end of it!

I’m sure everyone is sick of hearing about this but it needs to be said.

This guy is moving home to be around his family where he grew up a dogs supporter, has an opportunity to play with best bulldog of all time who clearly wants to play with him and we have clearly been building to go at him 2/3 years… what hope do we have of landing a star player through FA or Trade if we can’t get Zak?

If we just carry over the pressure we've had these past two weeks we are probably going to be the Pies, they're awash with injuries and their defence has been rough

but dont be surprised if we kick ourselves out of the game

basically what im saying guys is im betting the house on Bulldogs
