Preview Rd 11: Changes& Prematch discussion vs Brisbane

[Mav]

Don't give the AFL ideas.

If they merged these teams they'd wind up with a list of 70 and the first 15 picks in 4 drafts.

I'd be all for it if they called themselves the Brisbane Sun Bears. They could wear the Vic State jumper:

Clarke has a bit of the Gibbo's about him. Does alot of things right, but his clanger, turnovers tend to stand out like dog balls.

Yeh exactly - terrible when your clangers are obvious and costly

Like the optimism. I'd say Margetts being a ****head is the one certainty. But cos of how much life this ******* rollercoaster of a team has sucked outta me past few years, i feel we're due for a bad game. Hopefully they prove me wrong.

******* Maggot Margetts is the king of the soft free kick in our defensive 50 and ticky touch wood 50 metre penalty

“These changes are designed to create a greater atmosphere” Come on! Don’t treat us this way! It’s done for one reason and one reason only.... Money! Be honest and just say that. How’s the placement of the 5 bays on lvl 1? Smack bang in the middle of the Brisbane cheer squad. So much for a greater atmosphere. Hate this decision, club has tried it in the past, then followed up with surveys, which results told the club we preferred having full access to level 3 even against teams that draw low crowds.

 

[Horizons_00]

He comes in for Clarke

In: Clean disposal
Out: Sloppy disposal

 

[JD-Roo]

I think I'll still get in early and sit in my "normal" seat on Level 3.

 

[The Filth Wizard]

So pleased for Ahern. Would be easy to throw in the towel but this is a huge moment for him built on determination. Would love to see him make a huge splash this year.

 

[Pykie]

So probably:

Clarke -> Ahern
Durdin -> Daw

 

[Twinkletoes]

Durdin -> Daw

Yep, and BF usually gets it right on the weight of numbers re the expected ins and outs (ignoring the bullshit calls).

 

[Mav]

Indigenous round and hopefully at some stage we'll have center bounce with a midfield of Jed, Jy and Paul!

 

[kirbatron]

Well done to Ahern. What sort of player is he & where is he likely to play?

 

[Heaps of fun]

He's a midfielder but has the skill and poise to play HB.

 

[Pykie]

I was just hoping for a win.

After reading the Lions board, they seem to think we are some kind of percentage booster for them at 1-9.


I hope we bury them by 10 goals now.

Yeah, that's some interesting reading over there.

Sitting 17th and (closely) losing to the team sitting 4th at home, with one win for the season = favourites against 5th at home.

 

[King Corey]

Would be easy to throw in the towel

Well lucky he didn't because..

Would love to see him make a huge splash this year.

..he's going to need it.

[The Nostradamus]

Still think Wright is getting carried and not up to pace

Hopefully he plays well this weekend though

 

[nicko74]

Excuse my ignorance, but how is his endurance?

 

[andana]

Probably start on the bench and have controlled TOG.

 

[Firestarter]

Twits get too much sun and not realise they're not at home this weekend?

 

[Tectonic]

Twits get took much sun and not realise they're not at home this weekend?

Apparently we have no youth and have had an easy draw.
You see when we beat Hawks, Freo away, sydney away and gws we only beat them because they were bad.
I must say though if anybody knows a bad team when they see one its probably Lions fans so who knows maybe they're right.

North by 39.
