The Tigers are rejuvenated after the departure of Hardwick, but they won't win this game against the Lions at the Gabba. Brisbane by 20 points.

 

[Osho]

Do Tiges have a chance with the equal most i50 against?

Unless MacWalter can make a correction, it could get outa control.

 

[juss]

Brisbane at the Gabba = top 2 quality team.

That's who we're facing this week, and while we've been playing well recently, I don't think we will win. It's usually a high scoring affair with the Lions and we still miss our most dangerous forward in Lynch. Even with him, I'd probably still tip the Lions.

I expect us to compete hard and make it a game under McQualter so it should be a good watch for neutrals too, but the Lions are just too strong a prospect at the Gabba and they don't really lose up there, so I think they win by 15-20 points.

Lions look a worse top 4 prospect than Melbourne who are severely out of form.

So many players stagnating. Should be a 50/50 game.

Is it SFW friend, or do we need to add a warning?

Totally SFW - Unless your boss is a Richmond supporter.

At the Gabba: 7-0
Away from the Gabba: 3-4

They're really 2 different sides, and history going back further than this year shows that too.

At the Gabba you're facing one of the best sides in the comp when you play the Lions, away from there, you're facing a middle ground type team. A look at the overall record doesn't tell the full story, they are such a different team outside of QLD, and more importantly, at the Gabba.

Probably 50/50 in Melbourne, up there they are clear, deserved favourites.

 

[Zevon]

Reckon the Tigers will be competitive but the Lions look like they’re rolling now and they’ve been bulletproof at home all year. Should chalk up another win.

 

[Truetiger]

Not much love for Richmond here very disappointing lol. I really believe we are a chance then again I could be biased.

 

[bato]

This is gonna be a real close one.

 

[dean33]

Have a feeling about this, mini has the team humming, might be in for a special night.

But this will be like a final and in finals, Brisbane at home are pretty average.

They get very tight bottoms and start doing things you wouldn't expect from a experienced team. Often the older guys who are prone to the odd brain fade at crucial moments.

 

[M Malice]

Lions by 50+.

 

[Truetiger]

Lions by 50+.

Over Confident, will be a lot closer than that. Tigers 21 should do it

… or on hallucinogenics.


Richmond supporters gather to discuss their chances this Thursday night at the GABBA. The consensus was that Richmond were “good things.”

[tiger_tough]

Lions should win, but so should have Saints and Freo. Reckon it will be a close one.

 

[Truetiger]

Ahh well its guaranteed then Finals here we come jk lol.

 

[Osho]

I got my stat from here.

"only Richmond and West Coast have conceded more than their (Essendon's) 791 inside 50s for the year – North Melbourne are level."

Footy Fix: The Bombers have a big weakness - and Freo just showed how to exploit it

There's no doubt Essendon have been one of the season's biggest surprise packets. Seen by many as a bottom-four side in a developing year…

Please provide the breakdown of this stat pre and post MacWalter's appointment if you can find it, I've had a dig around with no luck yet.

I don't have it but I'm not worried about total i50s conceded. Scoring shots conceded per i50 is a better metric. For that we're equal 2nd, behind saints.

 

[Toffee Lion]

Richmond is the only team that can play us well at the GABBA consistently.

Lions go in as favourites but the Tigers are certainly in with a good shot, no doubt in my mind.

 

[Zevon]

I reckon you’re in with a shot, it’s just hard tipping against the Lions at home. Think it’ll be closer than many are expecting and won’t be entirely surprised if the Tigers spring an upset even if I’m not tipping it.
