Preview 2018 1st Qualifying Final: Richmond v Hawthorn, 6 September 2018, 7.20pm @ MCG

[Dixie Flatline]

If my calculations are correct we are locked in fourth and play Richmond at the MCG probably on a Friday night.

Changes and preview in here.

Your calculations are not correct. If Brisbane beat West Coast by enough we could play the Pies

You know what? I actually wrote Richmond/Collingwood first and then deleted Collingwood from the header.

My brother supports the pies, I would love nothing more than for us to propel ourselves to a prelim by beating them!

Yea by my calcs lions win by ~ 3G + And there could be a shuffle with wc drop to 4th

 

[Flukey!]

I wonder if Sicily will be right to go?
If fit, surely he comes in but tough choice as to who goes out after tonight's effort.
Our young guys have been supreme.

 

[Billyc]

I want the Pies. Go Brisbane!

So many quality inclusions to come in.

Sicily is playing for Box Hill next week by all accounts, so should get a run and be ready for the Tigers the following week. Frawley should be back if he was 50/50 for this week. Question mark still over Birchall's inclusion to the senior line up but it's hard to say no to quality like him. Will Ceglar come into the side?

So excited! It's been so long since we last played finals!

 

[Flag08]

In: Chip, Siss, Cegs
Out: Brand, Mirra, Shoe.

Is Cyril still on the list? #JustSaying

 

[Pessimistic]

Sicily plays BH Hawks next week. Still has the arm protector on

 

[local hack]

Doesn’t matter who we play, need to beat tigers at some stage to take the silverware.
Sicily and Frawley come in
Mirra and Brand (stiff).
Does Ceglar come in for Shoe?

 

[UAWM]

Not sure about this, if Brisbane win by any margin its Hawthorn v Collingwood

Thought Brand was actually pretty good tonight. I feel like he gets more confidence the more games he plays in a row.

 

[LRobbo]

Bring them on.
They have only got over the line the last 3 times at the G. We are best equipped to beat them in my opinion. Big ask but I think i we’ve got the mixture of grunt and class to do it.

The Tom Lynch Cup.

I think it's even less than that if it's a reasonable score.

I think at scores around 70-80 mark 1 goal will do it.

Cyril back??

 

[Mercy Seat]

Ps Birchall won't play this year. You can't go in with undercooked players in finals, and he hasn't played for 2 years. Sic, Frawley, Cegs (maybe) only ins I can see...

 

[Pessimistic]

Will bevo tell Clarko how to beat Richmond?

Only wildcard is Mitch Lewis He could be ready

Lewis CJ. Brand. Nash. Pitto Some upside even overlooking schoey and O’Brien

 

[WWSD]

Where is all this talk about Birchall being ruled out for the finals coming from?

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Either way, it will be Silk's 200th game for the Hawks and would be good if we can celebrate with a win.

Thought Brand was actually pretty good tonight. I feel like he gets more confidence the more games he plays in a row.

I would really like to like to him #23. Tried his but off tonight, turns it over a bit too much. Who do you think Sicily and Frawley come in for?
