Preview Round 24, 2023: Brisbane v St.Kilda - Gabba, Saturday 26th August, 4:35PM AEST

[Plugger35]

Hayes will know that a big performance against Brisbane could get him a gig for the first final and he's our secret weapon, only we know how good he is.

Most opposition supporters don't rate him or even know who he is, hopefully he can fire tomorrow and give us another finals option to play up forward.

If he can help us beat Brisbane and get us a home final it will be hard to drop him.

The thought of you highly aroused, bollock naked in Bourke St. Melbourne, being tasered by cops as Sharman walks by...suddenly makes me both laugh and throw up a little.
Don't change dude, you cop it in here a bit, but it's easy entertainment value for low brow appreciative humourists like myself

I know really well it can be a fine line between laughter and vomiting and I'm the first to admit the sight of my excessively hairy naked body can force even the most balanced of people to fall either side of that line.

Most important game for the year, we take down Brisbane & we are more then a chance to advance to a preliminary final, remember beating them 1 week out from finals will build that belief & put doubt in the minds of Brisbane.

It would also send a shiver to all other sides, this is totally different to a normal mid season win as all sides would be winding up for finals.

Expect Ross to be treating this as an elimination final, could not have a better scenario then this we win & we are well & truely in the mix.

We're the danger.

Chris Scott said Geelong were the danger but we destroyed them and ended their season like we did to Richmond the week before, we're dangerous af

 

[NextYearPlease]

According to Champion Data. Mitch Owens is the #1 contested possession player between the 50s (in general play) in the competition.

On a Tuesday, in a month with two full moons.

If we win the midfield we are a different beast - everything comes together

Contested possessions in the middle of the ground are pretty important lol

He's a Jack, born and marked by fate to play for the Saints. Same size pretty much as Battle though.

Very weird

Last game for the Bombers and could find out where Parish is heading in the next couple weeks - to re-commit to the Bombers would be a mistake imo

For some reason if you are drafted in your mid 20s people don't rate you - Hayes has the physical presence and talent to really turn a game , just unlucky he did his knee in when he did.

 

[Bertha]

possibly the wrong thread, but someone should tell Essendon they've got too many wins to start tanking now, bahahaha, fallen apart!

Not a likeable team, inflicted plenty of pain on us in the recent era so apart from playing the Magpies back into form it's another well deserved shellacking.

This would be as useful to Collingwood as an extra training session during a bye weekend - trying to get my 3 year old to bed is more challenging than playing the bombers right now

 

[George]

Interesting some are building this game up. Personally couldn't give a stuff what happens bar injuries. Likely we finish 6th anyway and get the home final. Melbourne are beating Sydney over there.

Magpies have not been great the past few weeks.
Not sure playing witches hats is going to play them into form. I’m sure they’d much rather have had more of a competitive game going into finals.

God I hope ur right - but realistically he has only played a few games, coming back from an ACL and hasn’t played senior footy for what 16 months- big ask!

 

[CaptainRisky]

Hayes is firing on 3 cylinders???

Kicking 6 in the ressies??

Well how about you tell us how many he will kick tomorrow,

Think Brisbane have won 29 of last 32 games in Brisbane - fortress - big ask but if we push them I think that would be a fantastic effort without King.

ps don’t reckon Fagan‘s up to it - should have been sacked last year. Ps have it on very good authority you can forget the Uncle Arthur persona - has a very ordinary relationship with many players - no father figure!

Yeah I know we shouldn't expect too much from him after a long injury layoff but he is the sort of guy that could make an impact for us straight away.

RTB wouldn't be giving him a shot tomorrow if he didn't think he could make an impact and in finals, it's up to him now to push his case to play finals.

 

[Jackbenimble]

Robarta is still open?

Amazing, I used to do some damage at that place circa 2003ish. What a time to be alive. Fitzroy Street was pumping back then. Robarta, a few slices of Archies pizza with the sour cream wedges at 3am. Good times.

Roberta! Yessss!

The memories/ or lack of, just came oozing back

They are a confidence team, when going they believe they are the best (based on results as well). Think the early season Pies are back now. Shame Tippas last game is going to be a 15 goal smashing.

Yep, he's in a vortex with his posting style.

Let's hope BOTH Scott's are proven to be bellends by the completion of R24.

Talk that Gresh might be going to the Bombers. Someone should tell him to look at their last two games.
