Title: Anyone see Tuesday night as a danger game?
Post by: Hard Roar Tiger on April 22, 2018, 08:06:12 AM
On paper, it’s a 100% watch out.
Hogan has a great record on Rance
Their pace matches ours on paper
They’ve actually had the wood on us these past few years

On the flip, I loved our pressure against the Lions, coupled with our run for 3 and a bit quarters v the Hawks see this combination as being too good for their best

 Not too worried. Our game is so much better than it was 12 months ago. Just come to play and we should be good

True. It's a season defining game for the Dees tho. Lost on Tuesday night and they are well are truly staring down the barrel of a failed year.
Conversely, if we win, it's a great indicator of our credentials as a player in this season's comp

Definitely a danger game. The Demons have been criticised all week for being mentally soft. Expect a very physical approach by the Demons.

We'll be hard to play against.  Pressure will be enormous.  Good luck to them if they can beat us .

Remember last time we played a man short . Todd Elton masquerading as an AFL footballer.

I thought Melbourne were deplorable against the Hawks.

Then I watched the Hawks in their first qtr against the Roos.

No idea what to make of anyone's form at the moment.

To be fair they were 2 rotations down for essentially 3 quarters.

It's been a round of mostly upsets or near-upsets so far. The start is going to be important as the Dees will be all revved up because they were poor last week and they always treat us as their Grand Final ::). In the ressies today they jumped out of the blocks.

Tuesday is an opportunity to go top of the ladder  ( during a h&a season ) for the first time in 23 years .

Still cannot see how you can get all fired up before this game with all the pre game ANZAC stuff on

Bit of a danger game for me.

Don't think Hogan really has the wood on Rance though. He 'beat' him once that I can remember? Took maybe two contested grabs and booted two goals when directly on Rance, otherwise was playing on someone else?


Still good odds in our favour...

Some teams seem to match up better on other teams.

Port v Sydney is a good example.

I think Melbourne do match up well against us for some reason.

I still think they are mentally fragile and we have to bring the pressure to exploit that and it should be a fairly comfortable win.

It is now. Not so much because of the Dees but rather our outs.
