this will not be a cake walk doggies lets focus,assuming its a cooler night their big fwds will thrive on it so good defence and a smart kicking game should see the dogs home

 

[Bulldog Force]

Assuming the Rabbitohs play anything like they did last night, we'll be in for a big fight.

 

[Timmah]

No chance of a flogging this week. Souths' forward pack finally showed a bit of mettle last night - I think it'll be a gritty low-scorer like last Easter Monday. Hopefully the rain has settled down by then 'cuz we can expect a bumper crowd.

 

[Different kind of Rabbit]

I reckon this should be a cracker of a match. I always look forward to when we play the Doggies.

 

[Bulldogs_4_Life]

This is what I hate - when we are expected to win and have such high expectations. When our backs are against the wall and when we're expected to loose, that's when we perform really well.

 

[ByRd]

Going to be a tough game, we need to consolidate that win against the roosters and come out firing against the rabbits.

Wonder who will replace Halatau in the line up??

Williams, Morrin, Browne, Conrad....

 

[Bulldog Force]

Logic says that we should smash the Rabbitohs 70+ given that they were hammered by the Roosters and we hammered the Roosters... but I seriously doubt we'll humiliate any other team this year more than the Roosters.

 

[gsweeper]

Just a question about this game. Last year I was able to bundle my easter show tickets with the footy tickets, is the same thing happening this year?

 

[Bulldogs_4_Life]

Is Monday a public holiday? I hope work doesn't call me in.

 

[Timmah]

team lists in.

Monday is a public holiday

 

[Bulldogs_4_Life]

Great to see Danny finally get a chance in the top grade. Well deserved. Good to see Green keep his spot, too.

 

[gsweeper]

damn, is Halatau out long term?

 

[Timmah]

He reinjured his ankle. Not sure of the prognosis.

 

[Bulldogs_4_Life]

He didn't re-injure his ankle, he did a medial ligament in his knee but apparently just a strain and not a tear.

 

[Bulldog Force]

Ok so why have Green and Stagg been switched?

 

[Bulldogs_4_Life]

I actually re-watched the game against the Roosters (a couple of times ) and Green did play second row and Stagg lock despite both being named otherwise in the pre-game.

 

[Ridders]

Really looking forward to this one.

Beating the "Pride of League" is always fun.
