They just have one of 'those' rivaliries, and it brings them into another gear.
Re: Can we have a thread about other results...
Bombers losing to Adelaide, Freo to WCE will all help....be nice if the Dogs could do us a favour and beat North...but doubt it.

Re: Can we have a thread about other results...
SainterK, I knew you were optimistic, but let's be clear: The Bulldogs will be lucky to win any more games for the rest of the season. You might as well hope that GWS gets up and does us a favour.
It's all about the Bombers and Freo losing from here on in, WCE winning the sandgroper derby is imperative, and not the gimmie that it would have been a few weeks ago.
That Swans match has all but broke my optimism for this year, but a win tomorrow might revive it.

Only chance Dogs have is that if it's open free wheeling stuff that North like to play, but I know it's almost completely unlikely.

Same here. A lot of Dawks softcocks went missing tonight - Mitchell, Lewis, ravioli. Shoe makers or whatever his name is a huge liability in their defense.Austinnn wrote:Disagree entirely.Cairnsman wrote:Our very best is so far from the standard that the Hawks and Cats produced tonight.

Our best stacks up, maybe our ability to play backs to the wall is questionable but our best is still good enough to beat most.Austinnn wrote:Disagree entirely.Cairnsman wrote:Our very best is so far from the standard that the Hawks and Cats produced tonight.

They did rip them up early in the season but North are better now. Still can happen if you take anyone lightly.

Re: Can we have a thread about other results...
I don't bother watching a lot of games when we aren't involved, but that game last night showed why we still have the greatest game on earth. I had the hawks to win by 4, but cheered that kick through. Geelong deserve to play finals. If we can beat Collingwood, we will as well. Best game I've seen since we beat the cats in 09. Their mental fortitude is on a different level to ours and anyone else. Great team. Damn them.

Re: Can we have a thread about other results...
Finals games also put teams into another gear and that was what that was last night. It was finals quality and intensity and both those teams have got what it takes to produce that type of football in the finals.

Even if we beat Collingwood tonight it still won't mean we will be flag contenders. North beat us late in the season in 2009 but did anyone think North were capable of winning the flag that year. I still don't rate the Cats chances come September, they were lucky last night that they caught the Hawks napping in the first quarter. That won't happen to them again. It will be very good for the Hawks to have that wake up call this close to September.

Don't care if our game doesn't live up to the hype, let our win be incredibly one sided...it will have to do.

Re: Can we have a thread about other results...
Did my tips Thursday night as usual. Tipped Dawks by 8 pts, thought they were in good form and could break the curse as I call it.
Saved all my tips, went out of the tipping site.
Paused...thought for a moment.
Went back in and changed it to the Cats by 8 pts.
Such is the power of this hoodoo...

Re: Can we have a thread about other results...
Freo controlling the game. Looking like a win for them. Let us hope not.
With Cats losing last night it is getting more and more difficult make the 8. There are now a lot of ifs that have to go our way, and footy does tend to be a % game
Cats now look to be a lock after their two last wins and better form that they are now in, compared to the indifferent form that they ere in.
Freo does play North though (the one that loses may open the door for us), as well as Pies and Crows.
