Preview Changes vs The Lions

[stefoid]

What is our focus, tactically, for the brisbane game?

What we really need is another week of attacking practice under heavy defensive pressure, but I doubt Brisbane will bring it.

 

[FoochPackage]

Dont think Bevo will rest that many
Maybe one bloke

I didnt think bevo would do alot of things he has done this year. So who knows really

Nah, North are resting up, they will be mauled by the Tigers.

Atrocious.

"Speaking before the Kangaroos released their statement on Thursday morning, AFL football operations manager Mark Evans said the League was comfortable with teams resting players as long as they weren't seeking to manipulate aspects of the competition.

"It goes to heart of why they're doing it … I get that if they're doing it because it improves their chance of success," he told Radio Sport National."

""If they think [a rest] aids their success and it's not about changing draft order or manipulating something like that – and they're open about it – then I think we understand that." "

What is it Evans? It is clearly in part about ensuring they get to play in Melbourne. Absolute joke.

IMO best thing we can do is put the foot to the peddle from first bounce and put the game away ASAP then just look to play bruise free football.

As long as we win.

If Richmond win, Adelaide win but we lose.

Then we are playing in Adelaide for finals which would be a nightmare.

This. Bev needs to be hammering home this message. We must win. We don't want to be at the mercy of the footy gods because we don't have a great relationship with them.

Zero chance of that happening.

I like it! We know that Bev said he wouldn't talk finals until it was mathematically certain we would make it. Does that mean he'll talk top four until it's mathematically impossible?

Abby is up in Queensland with baby Milla so String will be playing! Now Bont give me some sorta sign I'll be seeing you live for the first time

Zero chance we would be playing finals according to some posters last year

Using dogs by 40+ as the 'we smash the lions', William Hill has this as a $176 chance.

$1.76 or $176?

 

[JTCWBFC]

$1.76 or $176?

Including Suns to beat swans and Roos to beat tigers $176

Do you know for sure Bont is playing VD? Ultimate footy grand final related. Dahl?

Yeah but Im not one of them, so zero chance of us getting top 4 still.

Ok Ill be more accurate if thats the way you like it.

We have a 0.0000000000000000000001% of getting top 4.

 

[Testekill]

Not suggesting for him to come in, but what where people's thoughts on Cordy's match in the VFL, I thought he was very good, in the best 2-3

He seems to be playing in the backline more

Yeah, Ayce did pretty well in defense except for the period where he was thrown on Daw while Roberts was off hurt.

We have a 0.0000000000000000000001% of getting top 4.

Actually if we're going to pedants - it's 0.568181818% chance based off those $176 odds.

Yeah, considering that Norf is going the ol' stack the deck against yourself by resting a dozen people maneuver.

Dogs wont be resting the young guns according to a friend in the afl
Bevo wants them with hot condition game tempo to adjust to spring weather

We need to win by about 60 points and GC by 30 plus. Richmond can beat North but by no more than about 12 points.

Not true. Those are the odds the sporting agencies offer to rip us off, so you cant base the true probability on that.
