Preview Changes: R18 v Brisbane

[Cincinnatus]

The fact you can get 1.65 for the Crows to win means im going to win myself a car this weekend.

60+ for sure, possibly even 100.

Its going to get us 105%+ and closing the gap on our rivals.

Hype.

So the 2 favourites for the rising star face off Saturday night. Rayner V Doedee. Unlikey to play on each other but should be some interesting clashes during the match.

Jaidyn Stephenson and Tommy would be the 2 faves I would have thought

Im doubling down here! Crows by 60+

I know everyone is terrified of the big bad Lions, but I think we will belt the living piss out of them!

Well, I disagree, this will not be at all easy on their home deck, they beat the Hawks in Tassie which isn't often achieved and flogged Freo over there which is never an easy assignment, and their % is far superior to all the other teams in the bottom 6 which would indicate they don't get beat by 60 points too often nowadays.

No monster forwards for the lions, this is the sort of game I'd like to see Talia play a bit looser and look to get more intercept marks.

McStay will play forward. Big O also rotates through the forward line creating havoc for defenders

 

[Golumless]

If not our strongest lineup for the year, it's damn well close to it.

Mind you, this is truly a danger game regardless. Brisbane are hot right now.

Just the once I think -thrashed by Richmond at the G

We also benefit from getting even speedier in our forward half with Shooter in for Tex. Compare this team with the one from 2 weeks ago and the difference in speed is ridiculous. The only problem i can see is if we don't structure up as well on field with el Capitan not playing.

There’s a crazy difference in speed and pressure between this team as named and our side against the Tigers. As well as Hampton being appalling that night we had slow-poke Poholke running around as some kind of ‘small forward’ impersonator.

Betts, Knight, Gallucci and Murphy are a fantastic bunch to have rolling through the front 50.

I’m not looking forward to Mackay replacing Gallucci or Murphy in a couple of weeks because the selectors love him.

Thats fine, you could be right. I've just got that feeling the Crows are about to hit the vein of form that can tear through any side and put up some big BIG scores. Like the one they had for the majority of last year.

I just have a feeling that Brisbane are gonna be the team thats in the way when we hit that formline and we are going to see something special!

 

[secondary]

Now it’s 70+... (Sorry it’s really hard to stop once you’ve gone all in!)

I'm with you, we will flog the lions.
And I'm usually a pessimist.

 

[Thegibbsgamble]

With the return of mgovern and Talia. With Smith and walkers inclusion, imminent.

I like your thinking!

Do we normally name/take four emergencies?
From memory isn't it normally three?

All games are danger games. We’re in a horribly awful position on the ladder compared to our capability. Nearly need to win every quarter from here on end given our p00% too.

There's just a underlying energy about the group now. Like they've had the shackles removed and are playing free again! Barring Richmond at the G, I would probably be confident against any opponent this week if i'm honest!

If we can only get 13 wins and need percentage and other results to make the eight this is the game to push the foot down and win back some percentage.

Get the win early then pile in the score in the second half. That has to be the mindset. Take the game on from the first bounce.

At this point, percentage doesn't matter. We aren't realistically making it up.

It means we need to practically win every game and I am much more worried about this one then Melbourne/Port/Carlton.

I saw something saying Yolmen was the only travelling emergency.
