The bulldogs love an ambush and we are always susceptible to one. Bulldogs by 12

 

[The unknown]

Dogs by plenty

 

[Vic Mackey]

We should win. Missing a few troops but our 1/7/9 are a lot classier then the Dogs.

 

[Ron's_Mate]

Was it last year or the year before when the Dogs were having a bad year, we were favourites, and Kieran Foran playing on one leg led them to a comprehensive win over us?

Believe it or not, both

theyve won at least 3 in a row against us and every time we've gone into the game in reasonable form and they've gone in like busteds.

 

[Mario chalmers]

I'd hope ET comes in to fill Twal's role and that Shawn Blore gets the nod to replace Musgrove and then starts from the bench. There is no point rushing back any of Lawrence, Seyfarth or Clark who have not contributed.

I have no idea who plays left wing but its going to be problematic moving forward.

 

[The Charlatan]

We should win this one comfortably. So Dogs 13+

I like it, but I think Luciano is injured so I imagine Lawrence would come in for him.

 

[Tigerm]

Us by 12 (we don't seem to be able to put cricket scores on opposition) BJ MoM.

I know Taylor does a job but when we're short on troops do we want a concussion merchant out there?

 

[The unknown]

Strong rumour Blore making his debut this game

Need to stick it to the dogs for 80 mins because they don’t give up. We have the more talented team but they are all heart

That's where the captain has to take responsibility to ensure we stay on the path.

More chance of pigs flying than Mbye inspiring his team mates. I believe Aloiai should be our Captain, tbh

 

[The Charlatan]

No matter what happens this week, Mbye does not move from centre under any circumstance.

 

[Vozzy]

The pass from Mbye to Jennings shows he would actually still be a better 5/8 then centre. It was the first time he played with confidence and his goal kicking matched as well.

 

[Fordy20]

It was a decent game from Mbye on the weekend. He'll be at centre for the rest of the year, but it might be a decent option for next year when Momo comes back.

 

[WA Tiger]

No matter what happens this week, Mbye does not move from centre under any circumstance.

Soon as Mbye moved from centre to wing his defence fell off a cliff...lucky for their 2nd disallowed try for foot on the line or he would have had a trifecta for conceding 3 consecutive try’s 1...should have held Feldt up then pushed him out when Feldt was obviously going to catch the ball. 2...He couldn’t even fall on a ball in lead up to 8 point try and 3...with the disallowed try he left HIS man the opposite winger and try scorer unmarked...
