Saturday night v Dogs

kosifantutti23 · Sat 11 Sep 2010 10:58pm

Same preliminary finals as last year.

I reckon we are a major chance if the Doggies start like they did the last two weeks.

St Michele · Sat 11 Sep 2010 11:03pm

Does anyone know what time the game is on?

Has that happened before? You wouldn't think it has.

Hopefully this year we have the comfortable win and Geelong/Collingwood have the arm wrestle as opposed to last year when Geelong had the fairly easier game going into the grand final.

I think its going to be a night game. Probably 5:45 start.

I wish Sydney had have won. I feel nervous playing the dogs for some reason. I'm just so sick of them and their past players and bloody brad johnson! Get over it!

St Michele · Sat 11 Sep 2010 11:07pm

Thanks i am tryign to work ut if I can go and watch the game and get home in time for my daughters 18th .... she is not happy that I want to watch the footy but it is much more fun with all the western saints. Will have to work hard to convince her it can be done

They really aren't playing well as last year however.

I actually wouldn't mind 5.45 but broadcaster and league probably don't agree.

atleast we wont have the Kirk / Roos factor
only the Johnson factor

and rather than 7.45 it should be 7.20 so 5.20 WA time..

you could be at the Party by 8pm Michele.

Yeah you're right. I forgot Saturday night games are usually 1/2 an hour earlier than Friday games.

Would have preferred the roos/kirk factor. So sick of brad johnson - the bulldogs make me want to vomit. As do the commentators and media analysts who rave on about how friggin great he is. Not to mention the love fest from the past players like smith and darcy who just won't go away. They all just make me feel physically ill. C'mon saints and just kill them!

forgot the PM factor too.....................
apparentlyn they had to close one lift off for security tonight- thnkfully the crowd wasn;t big..

I am not. I thought playing him almost cost the Dogs the game tonight. Any pressure and he turns it over...and did so often and badly tonight.

AFL has passed him by.

I hope they pick him next week.

What do you mean I hope they pick him. He will be first picked. That is there only chance to beat us if we can play our best. The only thing with the sainst is that the way we play other sides are always a chance.

Spot on.

A real passenger these days. Aker is right.

If it wasn't for his name and the romance of it all, I don't think a truly honest coach would pick him.

Johnson looked dreadful tonight.

Gotta run of him and hurt them.

I hope Williams is their match up for Riewoldt also.

Could care less if Morris plays...Riewoldt flogs him usually.

I think wed better get angry for this game. So tired of the close ones......time to send a message and really put this mob away.

We have something Sydney didn't have, two key forwards, think Roo and Kosi can rip their defence apart.
Do worry about that this is their third successive prelim, but we lost 3 before we won one.
Also interesting to note that the commentators said both teams we're carrying 4 30+ players each.
Hope we do to them what Hawthorn did to us.

I think he's in trouble too.
Only saving grace may be the push from another player that contributed to it.

Think he is ok

Another swan player was involved in contact....contributing to the collision.

He's in the clear.

The push from Jack, the fact that its the Dogs and its a prelim final against the saints.

No case to answer.
