Coming back after a tough game in Sydney they might be due for a let down
I give ourselves a fighting chance if we bring endeavor like we did today
We need to show that we can back it up

I got ahead of myself after the Gold Coast win, so I won't jump the gun after a respectable loss. But yes, next week will be a good test, particularly against a local rival also in a rebuild phase.

I don't think he will play next week though, and our achilles heel is still our lack of goals. To only kick 11 goals and still nearly win was an awesome effort, but we would need to kick at least 16 goals at Etihad next week to stand a chance, and I don't see where our goals will come from.

Re: We will beat the Bulldogs next week!!!!!!!!!!!!
And the other 8 goals? Maybe Hickey rests forward and kicks 2, that's 10. Membrey 1 probably. Count Lonie for one as well.
Our problem is, and always has been, that our mids don't kick (enough) goals. I suspect Schneider will be dropped after the misses today, and Saad won't be recalled. I am dubious about the possibility of Nick returning; 3 weeks with a calf seems risky.
In the past season and a bit we have kicked 16 goals twice and fifteen goals twice, managing the century only twice. Can't see us matching the Bulldogs for scoring power on the back of that.

Are we playing them at their home ground or ours?
As ex-president Peter Summers said:
“If we are going to be a contender, we may as well plan to win the bloody thing.”

Keep backing them in CW. You'll get it right eventually. Unfortunately I think the six day break will count against some of the young guys.

Re: We will beat the Bulldogs next week!!!!!!!!!!!!
They are already a very good side whereas we are just starting to improve. if we play like yesterday we're not without a chance I guess.
To tell you the truth, I'd be delighted if we can bring the same competitive effort, win, lose or draw

It's the Dish Lickers home game.
Expect their mascot to throw dog food at ours.
But we get FREE entry as Saints members, so if we come in decent numbers we will hurt them in the hip pocket also.

And secondly, I think turning up actually helps them financially, even if it's free entry.

Whoops my bad you are correct. Probably why we won't hear masses of publicity from our club re the offer
I don't want them to win a flag before us. So I don't like to see them do well when we aren't.

I don't want to see any team win a flag before us, but some will. I won't mind if the premiers in two years time wear red white and blue.

Much rather see a struggling club win a flag than the others, I'm sure most dogs fans would be the same.
