And the rest.

So Lazza if this is Melbourne's grand final each year, why did we beat them by over 50 points last year?? Yes I agree don't underestimate our second most bitter enemy, but also pay our lads the due respect they deserve and have some belief.

And Melbourne's grand final each year why did we beat them by over 50 points last year is Lazza if this.

Seriously, we should win this. Our narrow victory in round 2 actually makes me more confident. No chance of complacency this time around. You would hope.

Lazza, I would think most people are just taking the piss. Really, we should perform at a better standard than as compared last time, and yes, Melbourne a better than they have been in the past.

But, the Bulldogs are better side than the Dees, as are Carlton, as Hawthorn etc, as are Freo - if we bring the same intensity to this match as we would against a top side, then with all things considered equal we should win easily.

However, as we all know, this doesn't always happen. Let's just hope the boys decide to make Melbourne's 'grand final' a misery (like we did last year).

This may very well be Melbourne's "grand final" but if we can't get over them on Monday not sure what chance we have if we actually make it to the real thing against an opponent the quality of Geelong.

But don't worry we'll win.

Even the christmas window isn't big enough for that Lazza

LOL!!!

Hope so dude. Any win will take the gloss of their fans snow trips this weekend!! Nothing like a win against the dees to stick it up the snobs!
I always said we would win but not by the crazy margins predicted here

I HAVE lost a bit of weight lately!! And Myers in Bendigo has a huge window!! Bring it on!! NO WAY KNOWN will Collingwood win by over 100 points.

^ You never know!
The boys were on for 3 quarters last week - If we can do that again the D's will struggle to contain the damage!

I missed our first clash this season so looking forward to this!

Thanks DaVe.

Now that the teams are out we know that Johnno is not playing (he got injured early in the game against the Dees last time & was doing very well until he hurt his knee - & is an important miss for us then & now I beleive)

Their backline is pretty good. Frawley is a beaut as is Grimes. However IMO Davey, Pettard & Green are the players we really need to watch & of course Sylvia if he does play.

[DaVe86]

petterd is out so that is a huge bonus for us. As is McDonald. I reckon Nathan Jones and Sylvia are in doubt as well. Jones did his hammy last week so will struggle to get up

I can't see how this is a danger game for us. I'm expecting nothing less than a six goal win, to be honest. If we're any good, we'll beat them by 10 goals
