Game Day It's game day...........AGAIN! North V Lions - Ninja Stadium

[Frank Thring]

So we take on the Brisbane Lions today down in sunny Hobart. Well, this will be fun.

The unsettling feeling that a 100 point plus blowout may occur or we could be put in a sterling performance and have another honourable loss. If we don't halve the contests then we are in serious trouble because their midfield is big, quick and dispose the ball like surgeons. We need to tag Zorko because he will get nearly 40 possessions if we don't give him due attention. Neale the same so I would like to see these two get serious attention.

Looking at both teams on paper, they have quality all over the field with their defence tall and agile and their forward line small and quick. What could go wrong?

I fear for today so roll out the big elephant before the game and clutch your rosary beads as this could be one hell of a ride.

Probably the most disinterested in a game since 1986.

Won’t see any of it due to Mothers Day commitments

Brissy have the best list in the comp imo, just killers all over the ground.

Still, I smell an upset. Cmon Shinboners!

The only reason I'm awake now on bigfooty is because I'm on call for work.

Totally not because I'm addicted to North and checking if there was a game day thread.

 

[DuckYeah]

129 points. Be down 9 goals to 1 in the first quarter, midfield will be unaccountable, defence will be destroyed.

It’s not unusual for an up and coming team to knock off a premiership contender. Seen it happen many times over the years. The boys have had a good break so should be well rested.

Happy Mother's Day; let's hope we don't get the mother of all hidings

Damn, why didn't I think of this line for the OP.

Now Duck, tell me the truth, do you think we're a chance?

This game will break us, we will then go on and lose next week too

Was watching a Korean movie channel last night and up popped Ben Hur with the indomitable Frank Thring.

Gotta be an omen, Brisbane by 47, not 86.

Assuming that this is the game day thread (no threadmark so it is difficult to be certain).

Anyway, assuming that this is the game day thread, go north! I know you can do it. Well, I hope you can.

Anyway, that's it.

Mods are meant to take control of GD threads so maybe they can tag it up.

Bears don’t like going to Tassie

We can win this

I booked my week away in GC17 to coincide with this game. I figured QLD was the best location to view this game.

No injuries please. That's all that matters.

Luckily, gasometer didn't notice or he would have...


Actually, he probably did but like the rest of us when it comes to footy, quietly just went about his business...



Go north.
