Game Day Round 9, 2023 - Brisbane Lions vs. Essendon

[ZoBlitz]

Think both sides have had 10 changes or so since our game last year at the Gabba...

 

[Mr Ripper]

Hoping for a low-stress affair. Get 6 goals up early, then really click into gear.

[BrisVegasDru]

Go you mighty Lions, a big win over the Bombers is a portent of a premiership era!

Nice of you to cheer him on but I don't think Mighty Lions plays footy.

 

[Clarkythelion]

In Fagan we trust.

Will be heading down to the match from my farm, looking forward to a good crowd and good atmosphere, lots of singing after many Lions goals. a comfortable 6 goal win will do all I want to see is the Lions defensive efforts and pressure around the field continue.

 

[MSB ROYS]

Go Lions!

having a quiet game goals wise last night, this is a big chance for Charlie to catch up. If the game itself looks won early, that's what's going to keep me entertained.

I always thought it was ""No way, get..."

Anyway, first time I heard this was at a party in around 1982 and it's become a quintessential part of Australian 'culture'. Just looked up and the song was released in 1977. How time flies.

Nice of you to cheer him on but I don't think Mighty Lions plays footy.

Suspect he used to, rarer than the Loch Ness Monster around here lately..

 

[M Malice]

Lllllllllllliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnssssssssss!

It's a Lions landslide at the Gabba tonight... Lions by 85, Charlie kicks another 7.

Absolutely - we are making the trip down tonight, but staying at the in-laws in Hawthorne tonight. As Ripper said, hoping for an enjoyable low stress game and would love to see the Joe and Charlie combo kick a lazy 10 b/w them and the Playne Train to continue beasting his opponents.

Go Lions!

 

[Milux]

Can't stop the nerves. Round 1 still has me on edge. Never a guarantee. Just hoping we can keep our form going.

So close! More like 8-9 depending on whether you include the sub.

Since last time they met -

BRISBANE
In: Zorko, Berry, Andrews, Coleman, Dunkley McKenna, Gunston, Ashcroft, Wilmot
Out: Lyons, Adams, Fort, Robinson, Tunstill, Cockatoo, Fullarton, Madden, Michael, Mathieson (Sub-Unused)

ESSENDON
In: Redman, Perkins, McDonald-Tip, Weideman, Setterfield, Davey Jnr, Menzie, Baldwin
Out: Wright, Ridley, Laverde, Guelfi, Kelly, Jones, D'Ambrosio, Ham (Sub-Used)

Missing from both games:
Rich, Gardiner, Parish, Stewart


I think the weight of our ins vs their outs is pretty significant.

Also remember hearing that in bar when I lived in the USA. Whenever it played, everyone stopped what they were doing and sang that famous reply!

hopefully it wont be too wet. safe trip

 

[Dalions]

About the only highlight of last years game, hopefully there are many more after tonight game.

 

[Viceregal]

Lions to win by whatever amount Essendon crumbles under our pressure by!

 

[bungalow_bill]

I always get a bit concerned when we are this confident of a win.
