Bulldogs by 20

 

[thommo4pm]

This could be tough for the Dogs.
They should win, but Canberra may well have found some confidence last night....in saying that Brisbane may as well have not bothered showing up.

 

[Timmah]

I hope Canberra's inability to play outside Bruce continues, but I wouldn't count on it. They'll have plenty of confidence after kicking the Broncos in the guts.

 

[Rovelli]

Raiders have been very sorry away from home this season. They'll have to really lift to be in with a chance.

The Bulldogs' second-half performance today was much better and perhaps they are back on track. Would be a brave man to tip against the Bulldogs.

 

[Bulldogs_4_Life]

I'll stick with a Bulldogs win by 20, same as dogz08.

But in saying that, the Raiders are coming off a HUGE win and their confidence will be sky high. Especially with nothing to loose now they're out of the finals.

 

[VictorTheViking]

Corresponding game last year was 58-18 to us if im not mistaken....

Having said that, I hope they don't go into the game over confident, should be a good game regardless

 

[dogz08]

Every team put 50 on us last year lol

 

[Bulldogs_4_Life]

ROFL. What has that got to do with anything? Corresponding game last year means diddly squat buddy.

 

[jimmythehand]

yeah but you had the lean, mean, green machine in Colin Best playing for you last year who scored, what, 23 tries in that game? No such luxury this year ...

 

[[FKN-SIK]]

The Raiders are always a worry for me. We should win but I wouldn't take them lightly.

 

[skeepe]

The Raiders have won 75% of the games they've played at ANZ stadium, the best record at the ground of all teams in the NRL. They've only lost 3 times, although 2 of those losses have come against the Bulldogs.

 

[jpaciocco91]

Dogs should win this easy.
Canberra could produce an upset but I doubt it.

 

[Raider_69]

We've been pretty good in recent times against the dogs. And we've got a strong record at ANZ stadium, but there is a reason why the dogs are 2nd in the comp. And they'll rightly go in as massive favourites.
I think the dogs will win by 12-14 but if the Raiders turn up and play to their potential, we'll win comfortably. I just dont think we are able to do that back to back weeks at this stage of our progression.

ROFL. What has that got to do with anything? Corresponding game last year means diddly squat buddy.

I was just mentioning the corresponding game...idiot, christ, your club has a decent season and all of a sudden your king of the forums?

 

[Timmah]

You mentioning last year's result of 58-18 is about as valid as us reminding you of the 52-4 shellacking we handed you the year before that. I think that's his point.

 

[Bulldogs_4_Life]

I was just mentioning the corresponding game...idiot, christ, your club has a decent season and all of a sudden your king of the forums?

But what the hell is the point?

Trees are green. Tennis is a sport. Babies come from vaginas. Honestly, what's the relevance? I don't mean to be a prick but geez.

 

[skeepe]

Seems like the Bulldogs are a bit touchy about their previous form.

 

[Timmah]

Really? Victor's back went up too skeepe, or are you too lacking in bias to see that? :sarcasm:

Now for some real info:

I'm coming up to Sydney for this one, should be a cracker. I just can't see us losing for some reason.
