I’m not too sure about tickets being available as I know of lions members who still couldn’t get seats so I reckon it’s gonna be packed.


On iPhone using BigFooty.com mobile app

I think it had more to do with package seats

 

[Arr0w]

Just sourced 2 tickets to the game. Stoked!

Just hope I'm with the Blues fans and not the Lions... might not make it out otherwise.

Enjoy, give them hell!!

Note, once we win the after party is at Wickzki place

Payne out, Gardiner in for them would be like Weitering out, Durdin in for us.

Structurally they've lost their defensive anchor, and the bloke coming in has next to no recent AFL form to judge him on.

Almost certainly going to change the way their backline structure up and approach the game. If we can get an early jump and kick a few goals through Gardiner's man then it could engender a real cat amongst the pigeons type response that rattles their whole team.

Not quite the same IMO - more like Gov out for Durds - Andrews is their Weitering acting as a defensive anchor.

That said Payne is a big out and hopefully between Harry, Charlie and TDK we can exploit Gardiner and Lester.

 

[Aphrodite]

They're back tomorrow ...

There's a lot been made of McKay in the team but I think he has been in pretty good form when he's been in. The only thing he's not been doing well is finishing but around the ground he's just about been in career best form. He provides value as another strong tall inside 50 target alone, but his around the ground work is very valuable imo.

After win I'm not entirely sure where I'll end up...

If I could put my finger on our resurgence, it would be personnel related. Kemp: Cincotta; Cuningham; Cottrell; Boyd all provided run and pace. Without two of them this week.

Kemp as sub for mine. Can play just about anywhere.

I'd add Martin to the key personnel and therefore it's two in and two out from that group

You need to add Fog and Martin to that group and I agree with you this group have been a huge part of our resurgence.

 

[Monty1978]

l don't believe there are any tickets available at all.
Pretty sure game is a sell-out which you would expect, certainly no online tickets available since early in the week.

Happens all the time in melb as well .. I usually buy my tickets the day before the game . It’s always sold out and then they release bays as the week progresses .. annoys the F out of me they do it .. doesn’t surprise me people are still getting them

On the Brissy board they are saying Gardiner has been playing well in the VFL and should be right to go.

I firmly believe that, with the utmost respect, those who think McKay shouldn't be in our team have no idea what they are talking about.

Vossy's presser ...

What they said: Voss, Blues are ready

Michael Voss says the Blues are ready for whatever the Lions throw at them.

Make it our pre-game song (Love is in the Air) like the Power have 'Never tear us a part'.

I know it's not exactly the 'Haka' to intimidate the opposition but imagine 90,000 people singing it in unison.

Alternatively, Blue (Da Ba Dee) by Eiffel 65

 

[Blue train 28]

Some tough calls made to the team but some good calls . Back the coaches in and the players selected
Jack Payne is a huge out for lions tomorrow night
Mckay and Charlie to combine for 8!
Let’s go blues

Either that, or they're media types trying to create drama.

Seriously trying to paint us as physically vulnerable with that line of questioning.
Against Brisbane?
There’s not a player on an AFL list that would be scared of the Lions. Who’s their enforcer, Zorko?!

 

[thylacine60]

oh god.........

 

[Coops93]

oh god.........

God isn't a media type I'm familiar with, are they pro or anti McKay?
