The Bulldogs win tonight

[jadtiger]

Melbourne is weird this season and the Dogs vs melbourne game was really weird.

I tuned in when it was 20/6 (or 8) and thought the Dogs were gone.

But I looked at the Completion rate for Melbourne and then it was 60%, UNheard of with that team.

Likewise Melbourne had 52 missed tackles.

It is certainly a storm well down on the efforts of the last 20+ years

Which shows us loosing to them.

Look clearly Jerome Hugues changed them into a scoring side, but the Bulldogs showed that they were beatable.

Our defense was crap. Total lack of effort from us and we usually turn up against Melbourne.

Plenty of rain over the next few days will favour the dogs. It will be a slog and that is one of the only things they are good at

You reckon ? I thought it would favour our forwards if they can play like they did early in the season …i think if the Tigers win it will be like a 18-14 type score …i don’t think the Tigers have more than 20 points in them right now min any conditions .,.

Rain favors us, we have a dominant forward pack and can grind them down, They don't have a lot of speed and neither do we, so the rain is not going to slow either of us down too much. It will also make those hospital passes Galvin keeps throwing even more difficult to catch.

have to agree with TheEnz rain should be ok for us , we can out muscle them and Galvins passes could cause them head ache, he just lets them rip and in the wet that’s dangerous , grind the game down to our game plan , wet weather calls for plenty of bombs and some grubbers , kick to corners on both sides of the field , last night soo blues kicked off very time to exact spot and bombed pretty much same spot and qld just took it in their stride , we need to move it around with kicks bomb both sides and grubbed both sides , line speed will win this game , team who keeps the other team pinned wins , Tigers 22 dogs 14

From memory last year the Dogs had a few ordinary games in the wet

It pissed down the day we belted them didn’t it?

If we can't get up for this game considering recent history with the dogs, it could be season done.
