Dogs coming off the bye. still smarting from the R5 loss, will have half the starting 18 sitting on Cripps.

Dogs by 2 goals.

Agree, going to be tougher this week, IMO they may sacrifice Bontempelli to tag Cripps at the stoppages and run a similar plan to what Nth did
with Zeibell. Be a good challenge for Teague and its up to our other mids to lift and pick up the slack if Cripps is being held.

Coming off a bye can make a side lose some momentum. Be a little flat on the field in the first quarter by past experience. I hope we can jump them early. If we do anything can happen.  Probably a game we just might miss by a whisker, but I have some added faith this time in this squad. Teague isn’t afraid to make a change on the field during a game to swing a game the other way. He also has no issues accepting faults if he says the wrong things.
This digital world is too much for us insects to understand.

Their bye will be offset by our confidence.

Quote:Analysis from Stats Insider has found that since 2011 — when bye weeks were implemented due to the introduction of the Gold Coast Suns — until 2015, there have been 61 games where a rested side clashed with a team that had to play the week before.

And while the numbers say one thing on the surface, it’s important to look deeper.

In those 61 games, the team coming off a bye has won 36 per cent of the time. But they were only expected to win 42 per cent of the time.

Note : 2016 article....
Finals, then 4 in a row!

I've seen nothing in a very long time to suggest that we can win two games in a row.
Dogs will be seething about last time, they should win easy.
2017-16th
2018-Wooden Spoon
2019-16th
2020-dare to dream? 11th is better than last I suppose
2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time

Based on nothing. They're every bit as ordinary as us....

tells you nothing.

new coach, new team (as good as).

And we beat them very easily last time and they're coming off the bye....and they're ordinary.

Beating the lions was awesome and a great relief. Can't knock it.  Now to see if anything has really changed.
