Will we be wearing navy blue or white?

Should be Blue as there's no dark/navy blue in Lions guernsey.

 

[simioni11]

will VISY Park be showing the game ?

 

[jimsta10]

Seem to remember Martin looked extremely dangerous through the middle at his best at GC, he can do it.

Need him forward mostly though.

was against the doggies a couple of years back. dont think he'll be rotated there with the depth we already have.

 

[morningbrown]

Out: Bam Bam, Cunners
In: Martin, Harry

Simple as that I reckon.

 

[Bundy Bear Bogan]

Update: thanks to fellow posters my tickets are sorted if we get lucky in the morning.

Thank you so much to you awesome people. You know who you are. Fingers crossed we get the win so you can go in a couple of weeks!!

Wick. To confirm . Did you source them elsewhere or would you like our code?

 

[Show_Me_The_Money]

Essendon, Demons was qualifying final which we never should of lost. We have now made up for it

Didn't sit well with me that Fox Footy replayed that 2000 qualifying final all week in the lead up. At least we should get the 2000 semi vs Lions this week.....as well as 2009.

 

[Dadda Dave]

Its helps the Pies mostly.

GWS have less time to recover/regroup.

Pies get the extra day off before the GF (if they win).

I think the Kmart team will beat the filth..

 

[kreuze_missile]

Rd 14 onwards.

When harry plays, Charlie averages 3.9 goals (median 3.0) and our score percentage for the match averages 153% (median 169%).

Without Harry, Charlie averages 2.6 (median 2.0) and the team score percentage average is 137% (median 122%).

Looking forward to having him (& Martin) back in the side.

Million dollar decoy.

Kidding.. he does so much work up the ground.

 

[DollarsandSense]

5:15pm has got to be the worst timeslot ever ngl

It’s actually really good for up here. Sun will be dropping behind the stand. Won’t be too dewy.

 

[Show_Me_The_Money]

Watching the replay last night, Fog was involved in pretty much every goal after quarter time bar the winner. 7 score involvements all goals. One horrendous turnover in the third quarter when most players made errors. He's going nowhere.

 

[Canyouhearthedrums]

How are flights to Brisbane on that Friday night, Saturday morning.

Ate the they putting on extras. they seem gone.

2k return on Virgin currently

2k return on Virgin currently

Should be Blue as there's no dark/navy blue in Lions guernsey.

Blue jumper white shorts would be good if we must do something.

 

[jimsta10]

Those are school holiday prices...

 

[Kramer1]

Acutually I thought Pitto beat Gawn on the night, and as for the question of where he was when Gawn brain faded and touched the winning Melbourne goal, if you watch the vision, you will see Pitto right there, where he should be. Might even have touched it first.

Stats are not the only measure of a game.

Of course he was there...he had 30 plus seconds to get there. It's where any ruck in the competition would be.

 

[Matty411]

Wondering if we need a Melbourne venue to watch this game

ferrisb you would be a great organiser

Each state could do the same

I'll organise the QLD one. Thinking the Gabba might be good?

Pregame venue to meet BF peeps

 

[I bleed Blue]

Charlie and Cripps are still yet to play their massive games this finals series.

Rkn Charlie will be so keen to stamp himself on this game.

Hopefully he kicks a bag and drags us to a win single handed

 

[TheArchitect]

Everyone acting like this Brisbane team isn't the same team as the last four years is perfect for us.

They hate finals. The only reason they're through to a prelim is because they played a team that crawled to September.

He's definitely due.

 

[gbatman]

Fog had his had on the ball at crucial times through the the half forward line…his hands were extremely clean and had score involvements in at least 2 goals and direct assists in another 2.

He goes through the middle as well and attends CB

He’s a role player to a tee but I think with his tackling pressure he provides a vital forward line cog

His tackling pressure is the big reason he has played so many games.

 

[sweethoney]

Just a random thought... you're a Victorian, and you don't barrack for Carlton or Collingwood and you hate them both, who do you barrack for this weekend? Lions and Giants? But is that what you want at the G at the GF? Certainly you'd want a Carlton v Collingwood GF because you know the house would be rocking...? But that means you'd have to want them to win this week... Maybe you just pick the one Vic side you hate the most and hope they win this weekend and then lose to the non-Victorian side in the GF.
Oh, it's a good time to be a Blue...

As Isaac smith said on the footy show yesterday everyone’s cheering for Carlton

How good would that be!

 

[tarczonandjane]

For what it’s worth, we were navy blue guernseys and white shorts v the Lions at the Gabba in round 21 last year.

It’s a funny twist of fate, but we look to be shaping up against the three teams that did us over in the final three rounds of last year. Marking them off, one by one…

 

[Kramer1]

Charlie and Cripps are still yet to play their massive games this finals series.

Cripps just out muscled and out played two of the best going around with a supposedly cracked rib.

Don't think we could want for too much more.
