Preview Round 12 2020, North Melbourne vs Brisbane Lions, Metricon Stadium, Saturday August 15 2:35pm

[Hollow Knight]

There might understandably be some pearl clutching about playing Charlie but it’s important to know there is no structural damage. Just a matter of playing through some pain which he obviously is backing himself to do.

 

[jackess]

Fair enough

Dizzy said he completed the main session with no issues and he mustnt have pulled up sore.

 

[Tom14]

Lester played in the scratch match last week and is available for selection:

 

[M Malice]

Fage's mentioned Lester and Hinge as possible Rich replacements, would love to see Hinge get another crack.

 

[Tom14]

No Ben Brown (as expected):

Sums up our key forwards gameplan perfectly.

 

[Sherrinator]

Just a win will do but a percentage booster would be nice

We have a bit of percentage to make up between us and Port. When we win, it’s usually by a few goals, when we lose, it’s by a bunch.

 

[Elixuh]

If there was even an inkling of doubt re Charlie they wouldn’t be playing him against the kangas.

It would be mostly bruising as opposed to structural, but I need to see Coleman play badly.

100%, perfect game against a side struggling with form and injuries to blood Coleman. Can't help but feel there is no plan B if we get a few serious injuries.

 

[bungalow_bill]

We can't take any team lightly. What if North get on a run - unlikely but possible - and Charlie is the difference between winning and losing.

 

[Dalions]

I don’t need to, but I would like to.

 

[Benchpress]

0 chance of a Skinner return? May or may not need him for my supercoach

 

[Paul Mac]

mcstay 3 + goals this game i am predicting and punting

In the wet?

In the wet?

Good at ground level so why not?

 

[Mighty Lions]

Sums up our key forwards gameplan perfectly.

Thats not the first time he has mentioned how good our KPF's are and also describing what their roles are each week. I guess nothing more can be said to help some of our BF posters/readers understand what a KPF's role really is in the day of modern footy.

I think most are coming around. Journos seem a bit slower

Especially the 22 year old role playing KPF of ours who is also top 10 in the Coleman

 

[jackess]

Not sure the game will be much of a spectacle due to the opposition and weather.

I hope we keep them to 3-4 goals

 

[davemc_lions]

Not to say I was not happy Hippy had a great game last week and McStay had a blinder a month ago.
Be good if they could do both.. Although I am greedy
We have a lot of avenues to goal.. we get caught out more by teams that pick off our bombs that do not make the ground
Or those who run it fast out of HB

Or you should change what you deem having a blinder or a great game

And we must be one of the best teams at repeated forward entries

Sounds like Polec has been dropped again. Shame. They might replace him with someone who actually tries to tackle and probably on 600K less.

Yeah 27 on big bucks but can't get a game at his 3rd club, he should be in Oceans 11.

The Seagulls on the surface of the MCG apply more pressure to opposition players than Polec. Really ordinary player on huge pay.
