Yes they are, Melbourne also have Petracca and Oliver.

They have more depth in their midfield atm.

When he does it certainly lifts the team.

Weather looks okay for tonight. Maybe some rain but that’s expected after the game has finished.

Did the Dees go a smaller forward line because they were expecting wet weather?

Call me crazy but I think we have a shot at this.

Seems to be a round of surprise results so far.

Expecting Dev Smith to lift his game tonight and contribute to the score board…he needs to lift and he’s due for a decent hit out.

Dees are gettable if we’re switched on.

It took them to the last quarter to put away Hawks, North, Carlton, Swans and GWS (and GWS lost Davis, De Boer and Cogniglio during the game). And have lost to Crows and Pies.

But they have beaten Cats, Doggies, Lions and Tigers.

It will take our best. Last week, we had a number of players down on their usual form (but still got the win). Won’t have the same luxury tonight.

If Jake can back up from last week we are every chance. Need to take our chances and put some scoreboard pressure on early. Jake 25 possessions 4 goals and bombers by 47 points.

Not disagreeing but good teams often pull away in the last from lesser teams. I don’t see that as a type of weakness

Can’t wait to freeze my ■■■■ off tonight at the bombers super spreader event watching Dee’s do us by 70 points - being escorted out by police at 3 qtr time…followed by a 3 month lockdown.

I reckon you might have that all about right apart from bombers losing.

I’m really pumped for tonight.

Perfect conditions for footy

Not expecting to win, but pretty certain we’ll make it uncomfortable for the Dees.

Gawn Vs Draper

Oliver Vs Parish

Maybe Ridley to Fritzch

Should just be a ripping contest.

You are far from crazy.

Our forwards need to work as hard as they ever have to lock the ball in the 50.

If the ball goes out too easy without pressure our defenders will be under extreme pressure!

I hope BZT stands up again in the contest and really has a v. good game.

He’s gonna get a real surprise when Drapers big Salami enters stage right.
