Preview Round 11 - Hawthorn v Brisbane 1.10pm Sunday -Marvel

[ZoBlitz]

Gameday thread is up.

 

[Sherrinator]

Bailey has been pretty poor prior to injury. Needs to learn defensive accountability. Hate how the team gets messed with when a comfortable player is available.

 

[martinson]

Brain and Reville will be best 22 sooner or later. I see Brain's not in the team so hopefully they keep playing Reville.

Early flight tomorrow morning, should be a great weekend filled with footy, musicals and fine dining, flying back late Sunday.

I am hoping for a happy ending to the weekend frivolities on Sunday afternoon, catch you fine people on the other side of victory.

Lllllllllllllliiiiiiiiiiiiiooooooonnnnnnnnnnsssssssss!

Does anyone know if gunners is coming off a training block? I’m not usually a proponent for it but I think we need to tag gunners.

My rule of thumb is don’t lose to what you know. And we know gunners is a gun.

[Section 5]

I thought they may go a tall ruck relief player like Fort or Smith but i did not think Ryan would get the nod.
So, i am going against what most think will happen with the sub and would run with this side.

B: D.Zorko, J.Payne, R.Lester

HB: D.Wilmot, H.Andrews, C.McKenna

C: J.Fletcher, H.McCluggage, B.Reville

HF: C.Cameron, L.Morris, C.Rayner

F: K.Lohmann, J.Daniher, J.Berry (F/M)

FOLL: O.McInerney, J.Dunkley, L.Neale

I/C: C.Ah-Chee (F/W), Z.Bailey (F/M), N.Answerth (D), H.Sharp (W)

Sub: B.Ryan

 

[Gadzorks]

Yeah I do. Ryan is from Barwon Heads so you don’t think people would know already that he is debuting for the Lions this week?

Dang it. I forgot the wink.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Dang it. I forgot the wink.

You need to work on your flirting skills. Never forget the wink

 

[buttermuffs]

If Sharp is sub you suspect that means Berry would go back to wing which is a lose lose as far as I can see.

Bruuuuuuce has struggled to play a full game out so I suspect they might be managing him a bit if he ends up sub.

The problem with Bailey back is that our working wing rotation of Fletcher/Sharp/Reville gets thrown out of whack and unless Answerth or Wilmot goes to the wing then Berry would have to go back.

It sucks but Bailey is a good player just throws the nice balance we had at it the window.

 

[Dalions]

Game and a half out of top 4 if we can get a win tomorrow.

 

[Grasshopper17]

Game and a half out of top 4 if we can get a win tomorrow.

IF!

Then again, a sceptical look at the ladder reveals that the way it currently stands, we haven't beaten anyone in the top 8. In fact we are 0-5 against those teams. Really makes you wonder if the last 12 quarters of decent form is simply a false dawn...

When was the last time Hawks came to the Gabba ?

Really should bin this idea of ressies-form-is-a-good-indicator-of-how-the-seniors-will-go after the Gold Coast fiasco three weeks ago, but jeez, I was really encouraged by Box Hill's awfulness today.
