You'd be hard pressed to find any Lions supporter who wouldn't prefer the game to be played at the G. Seems like the only party who wants it at Marvel is the AFL.
Moved Thread Nick Daicos or Will Ashcroft?

100%
Will be epic when 1 (or each) wins a Brownlow. Very real possibility a handful of these kids are elites and Brownlow medalists over the next 10 years.

Yeah it’s bewildering stuff because if the season pans out as it should, the AFL could get close to 80k, if not more, in Round 23 for this particular clash.
It will have huge implications and will go as far as deciding home finals in the first week.

Very high praises for Naicos on AFL 360 last night.

Just watched that. Big praises. Loved the footage around his one-two handballs.
People here honestly don’t understand footy if they think they’re cheap one-twos. When he does it, more often than not, he is creating a scoring opportunity from it. The footage they showed on 360 validated that.

80k might be a stretch but Lions fans have been getting out in numbers for Melbourne games.
I’d say 70k would be easily achievable. Baffled, absolutely baffled why it’s at Marvel.

71k against the Swans and 66k against the Crows early.
If it’s Round 23, both are in the top 4, it’s the eve of September, it would definitely get high 70s and potentially crack 80k IMO.
Excitement would be at high levels at that stage of the year for both club’s supporters.
I've never understood why anyone thinks. Brownlow makes a difference to anything.
It literally makes no sense at all.

You don’t like stats, and you don’t like Brownlow medals. Tell us what else riles you up.

Ashcroft wins in the hair department. It’s majestic.
Blonde players get more Brownlow votes.
In all seriousness there are Pies supporters who think they're a walk in for the flag but after tonight they might struggle to make the Grand Final.

60 year old men all over the country would be reminiscing of better days when looking at that head of hair.
That's misrepresenting me.
You're not making the final. Oh well. Maybe next year? Bad luck Daicos.

What a strange thread. I haven't heard anyone ever compare Ashcrofts output thusfar to Daicos. Daicos has clearly done more.

Most under used tool in footy to be fair. There can be so much benefit out of creating that extra space and extra 10 or so metres a team can gain to get over the back.
