Autopsy AFL 2024 First Elimination Final - Lions v Blues Sat Sept 7th 7:30pm EST (Gabba) - Teams in OP

[Irish BlueBagger]

With some of the injured players back we'll get up for this one. Blues by a goal or two or three.

 

[Malifice]

We're stumbling into this match, punch drunk and down in confidence.

Brisbane win it for mine.

 

[bungalow_bill]

Carlton by 130 points

Agreed

Blues 42 G 7 B - 259
Lions 2 G 117 B - 129

Lions by 33 behinds

You'd think it's an easy kill for the Lions, but in last years prelim the Blues jumped them at home, I can see that happening again. Lion's need to be reasonably accurate too. Lions by 32 but they need to be on from the start.

Only thing that's an easy kill for the lions is their fans hopes of accurate goal kicking.

Yeah if Daniher and Hipwood especially don't improve in that department dunno if they ever will. I can't think of any Lions player let alone forward who is a reliable dead eye in front of goal, who, even when say 40 directly in front, you think they'll probably kick it.

If the Lions or Bulldogs were actually accurate they'd be clear 1 and 2 in the comp.

Oh easy. We could of easily finished top this year.

At their best (which we haven’t seen for a while) they can serve it right up to Brisbane and make this a good game.

By “serve it up” do you mean beat them?

As in round 0?

 

[irish]

blues play a slather of half fit players they wont have a bench by 3qtr time and its all over lions by 24

 

[Billy ray]

stop songs after goals, brisbane fwds have become selfish as they wanna hear their own song

 

[rye]

Brissy will be nervous!

Their form is patchy - looked very average at home V Essendon & previous games.

Lost their game against us at the Gabba this year.

Carlton with a few handy inns will benefit from a week to freshen up - Curnow, McKay, Williams, McGovern, Martin, Boyd, Cerra.

Could Docherty play since doing his ACL v Brisbane Round zero? Reports are he’s been in full training.

The Blues will need to balance their ins, hopefully keeping some of the kids we’ve been playing who just crack in.

Lord, Binns & Moir have been a revelation.

Which of moir's 8 disposals this year convinced you he was a revelation?

You will find out if he plays - with those coming back he may not.

He’s played 2 AFL games that you’ve noticed & a whole season in the 2’s as a first year player.

A lovely one touch player with amazing ability to kick a goal.

Moir is a very unique beast, he should never be dropped imo

Would have been a very high draft pick if not for a bad hip in his draft year

60m with either foot, doesn't have a preference

I'm tipping he's the sub again

He adds an X factor.

Needs to build his tank over the next couple of year - after which, watch out!

Have spent some time watching his junior highlights which are lots of fun

Annoyed that we didn't pick him up

Moir will be in .
Owies will be out suspended
Motlop out
Lewis Young out
Pittonet will be out if TDK is fit
Durdin will be out
And maybe Jack Carroll out

What is with that song? Do Brisbane supporters like it? Extremely awkward in my opinion.

Strange old response to a post where I was talking you guys up.

Would have thought it was obvious I was saying that at your best you’d be right in this game rather than one that was played 6 months ago and has very little bearing now.

In any case, of course a description like “serve it up to Brisbane” would include potentially winning.

 

[magpie_marty]

Will the Lions capitulate with finals pressure?
I expect a lot of Carlton people will attend the game.

So who else comes in wise one?

Charlie, Harry, Williams, TDK
Cerra and Boyd won't be ready. Hopefully they've learnt their lesson with Martin and won't select him either.
Doc may be a surprise inclusion as the sub
