Preview Round 10, 2025 Brisbane Lions v Narrm

[Nathan Barley]

Kiddy and McKenna for Bez and Fort

 

[Nathan Barley]

Looks like we're getting more of Dizzy as a forward

 

[Dalions]

Gardiner gets a reprieve

 

[Perrip]

Kiddy and McKenna for Bez and Fort

My hype for Coleman returning has been ruined by Dizzy being in the team still. Big O better be right to go against Gawn otherwise we're screwed

 

[Harris Specter]

Unsure as to why we’re still going with Gardiner as a forward instead of rewarding strong VFL form from Gallop.

True!
Good luck Kiddy, I do feel this year we are lacking another good ball user out of the back half which Kiddy will provide and it will allow Fletcher to move further afield and provide good ball use into the forward line.

I don’t watch enough VFL to comment, but had seen in the stats that Gallop had been quiet in a few games. Might be a case of going with the known output in Gardiner versus the unknown youngster. That said, I agree it would be good to see someone with more effective forward craft, like Gallop given a go.

Coleman and McKenna in are good inclusions though.

Dizz might take a mark and kick a couple of goals one of these days which will ensure his spot for the rest of the year.

You know when you say something like that it's liable to happen

 

[Squizz89]

No Gallop debut judging by there not being an announcement of it yet.

Someone went off way too early with the squad release last night. He was originally listed as in, with a piece after it about Kiddy possibly playing his first game in 15 months too. It disappeared as quickly as it was released so have no idea what happened there. Oh well maybe next week. Or Dizz kicks a bag and we don’t need to worry .

 

[Section 5]

 

[martinson]

We must be confident of Oscar being 100% because if he doesn't see it out don't know who rucks.

I suppose he did play over a quarter with a broken shoulder last year so maybe a back niggle is nothing.

If Dizz kicks a bag the people who really need to worry are the Melbourne back 6.

 

[Saucery]

Gardiner sub.

BRISBANE

In: K.Coleman, C.McKenna
Out: J.Berry (concussion), D.Fort (omitted)

R9 sub: Darcy Gardiner

 

[Section 5]

The question still remains who the ruck relief is.

Dunkley, Gardiner, Hippy or Morris

Personally, i would go Dunkley but really have no idea what Fagan will have planned.
Gardiner (ACL) may have put his hand up as he is now borderline selection.

Hippy is best placed to actually do a reasonable job around the ground but i just would not risk him.
Forward of 50 would be okay though

R9 sub: Darcy Gardiner

We tried Dizz as sub once.

 

[Saucery]

I guess if Oscar does get injured Gardiner could play a negating role on Gawn around the ground. As lethal pointed out the ruck role is as much about wrestling as jumping these days. Or he could relieve Payne and the big fella could get the role, Dizz can play just about any role really.

Oscar is going to be so juiced up he'll ruck all game

[Saucery]

Last week

Opps, disregard everything I said, as usual

 

[Saucery]

Out of interest has anyone played a lockdown player on Gawn before?

 

[Big Sauce 21]

McKenna will be sub with that team selection.

 

[Lets Roar like '44]

Gawn will get 55 hit outs and 25 touches, like every other time we play them. Why would that change now?

 

[LoganMorrisFan]

This is clearly a Harris to FF type selection, Fages is finally starting to believe

 

[Section 5]

Oscar is going to be so juiced up he'll ruck all game

Who knows, last year his TOG v Witts was 98% but both he and Gawn don't go over 90% much.

This year Oscars highest is 87% also v Witts
Gawns highest this year is 90% v Eagles
