The Western Bulldogs will be defeated by Richmond this week!

Not sure if I can find it in myself to tip you guys, but surely the doggies are due for a downer.

best of luck to you guys, will be a tough match.
 
I'm actually worried the other way. Dogs might be up as a team but the Smiling Assassin who loves Richmond has been down since his Rd 1 heroics. I think he might be due to play a big one which would spell trouble for us!
Who can we put on him to match his aerial prowess yet stay with him at ground level? Maybe Newman?
Yr thoughts? Hope I'm wrong :hihi

Not Newman. Too loose and can do better service to the team up the ground. They don't have stacks of forward targets so I think somebody like Moore (even Jackson if he can get back in). They'll need the skates on though - although hopefully Johnson's injury will slow him down.

C'mon Tiges. A win here will set a cat among the pigeons. There'd be no "but Freo are crap" excuses. I'm hopeful, but not all that optimistic.
 
Would have though that Moore was a certainty to play on him.
Good closing speed, tall enough.
Please don't put Jake on him!
 
Barracking and tipping are two totally different things Yinnar, but thanks for pointing it out.

The ruck division and our improving defence will lead the way.

I like the way you think. I am starting to get back my irrational optimism before games that we can actually win. It’s a good feeling, I hope it lasts a few weeks before it is crushed again.
 
agree 2. why not? of course the Tigers can, feel as though the tables may have finally turned in Perth, I know it's only Freo but it was a true hammering, been a while since we really put the boot in. Tigers by 17 points over Doggies. Go You Tiges!!!!!!! :clap
