Brisbane

[JUDDanaut]

I know you probably all wanna laugh at me but i feel that we will beat the Brisbane lions on Saturday at Subiaco. This is because i feel we didnt really lose the Port game just the fact of our skill levels was the case and our inaccuarte kicking at goal. If this week we gather the troops, raise our skills levels etc. we can quite convincly defeat the premiers on our home turf with 40 000 supporters behind us.
Thoughts?









GO EAGLES

well i think that we can win. we have the skills it's just a question of our execution.

once again the danger men will be brisbanes forwards. lynch is supposedly coming over. if he does i will tip him to kick 7 on q lynch. brown can potentially kick a bag with west coast having nobody to play on him. in addition to these two we are probably going to face leppitsch running around forward.

our best chance will be to beat them in the midfield and don't let it get down there. one thing is for sure i can see another 200+ point shoot out.

It will get ugly IMO. Brisbane must feel that they owe you mob a couple hence Aker's comments earlier in the year and the fact that Lynch is coming.

Glad it is your mob and not ours.

im expecting another close shootout, in the 140's

I've got a feeling we'll win, even without Gardy.

Cox is pretty close to him in terms of general ruckwork, but obviouisbly doesn't have the around the ground presence Gardy has. But we are still good enough to break even.

As good as Brown is, he's the perfect type of CHF for Lynch to come up against. Glass will be back this week I reckon - don't know whether Lynch is playing or not. Carroll may be gone.

I think we'll get up, but once again its gonna be a close one.

 

[Altum Volantes]

Not confident.

Just can't see how we'll win.

But who knows..

(For the record I haven't tipped the Eagles this year, so I'm not too far off the mark most of the time.)

Im not overly confident. In our favour is that were at home and we have been pretty good against Brisbane in recent times. Against us is that Gardiner is out and Lynch is coming over with Brown.

Looks to be another shootout. They have all been shootouts, will we be on the right side of one this time? I dont know.
