Not on the small SCG. It masks our lack of pace.

We need someone who's proven to be able to run out 4 quarters, which Cockatoo hasn't yet. His time will come.
Ok im convinced. Cocky is in.

With the shortened games it's equivalent to 3 quarters.
Don't do that to us. It's not fair anymore.
For the first time in a long time (as far as I can remember) I am finally not scared of the cats. With that said any team with Ablett Danger and selwood running the midfield shouldn't be taken lightly. Plus a team with some serious experience all round the ground such as Geelong.
Geez this should be a belter of a game. Will geelongs all round experience get the job. Or will Brisbane's lightning ball movement and youthfulness run away with it.
Damn whose excited.

The funny thing with Stevens is that he played more game time in round 3 against Carlton than he has in either of his 2 other games:
round 3: 6 disposals from 77% tog
round 4: 17 disposals from 70% tog
round 5: 17 disposals & a goal from 63% tog
So he's playing less each match but having a greater impact - though coming off a 5-day break he may have a rest

Fair, but Steven wasn't likely to get himself injured, either (well, in relation to a football game anyway).
That is a good sign... still was risky throwing him in... we actually lost that game they threw him in so maybe they should not have

I remember last seasons game being a bit of a down the line shootout. Could be the same this week? Although the SCG is a smaller ground than the Gabba so maybe not.
Last years game was the most boring game of afl ive ever seen. Geelong kicked the ball to the boundary every chance we got. As did brisbane. We actually had players break clear of a pack only to handball it backwards to someone still in the pack. Not that we handball much. Players were clearly told to never handball unless thry had no choice. That game is infamous for how boring the strategies employed by the coaches were. You must be thinking of a different match.

He ain't been good at lasting three quarters either.With the shortened games it's equivalent to 3 quarters.
That's what I meant by a down the line shootout. Mark the ball at half back and kick it down the boundary line.
So with shorter boundaries we might see some more side-to-side kicking action while holding the ball up. It should be exciting stuff.

Yep just get Cocky in there, he'd be fitter than Jack Steven was in his first game for us and they persisted with him.
For the first time in a long time (as far as I can remember) I am finally convinced the Lions are top s**t.
Hope the boys have learned from their 2019 Finals campaign. As we know on this board, you don't win premierships in the H+A season...
Well we know that Captain Courageous will be there, I hope Major Motivator puts in an appearance as well.
