Preview Elimination Final vs Richmond Tigers @ the Gabba, Thu Sep 1 7:20 PM

[BRAB]

Thursday is a pretty tricky timeslot to get to all the way from Nerang

 

[Quested]

I can see a path into the Prelim atleast.
Beat the Tiges at the Gabba, then Sydney in Sydney and then a date with Destiny at the MCG against Geelong.
If we could manage a win there we just need someone else to kick Melbourne out before the Granny.

Was thinking similar, although if Collingwood beat Geelong, we'll take them on and be in the Grand Final

 

[Big Sauce 21]

Win and we'll play the Friday night against Melbourne/Sydney

 

[martinson]

Correct

Yeah.

Some of the things players have told me have been said to them would see the perpetrator barred for life from anywhere these days.

Zorko's been sprung and he's captain . And he's struggling. So it's going to hasten whatever was going to happen anyway.

 

[McIvor]

Thursday night combined with playing Richmond combined with Fagan playing his favourites and not mixing anything up = a humiliating 10 goal loss and 1 and 6 finals record for Fagan.

 

[Tom14]

Reckon we should just forfeit based on what I’m reading.

Come on buddy. Lighten up.

We can win this.

The Tigers aren't that good any more.

Yeah.

What the hell.

I'm unhappy with many things this year and our form's dicey.

But we can win this game no sweat.

Going out this year in one would be a clear indictment ,I'm sure the guys are aware and we'll go a lot better than last week. We need to ,it's a do or die game for us.

Wait is that an option?

Why don't you write to the Lions this week and see if they'll nominate Metricon as our home venue for the EF?

 

[Mr Ripper]

Thursday night football is pure .

 

[McIvor]

Nope, have to bench McStay. He’s got one foot out the door already and has for the last few weeks.

That moment in the first where he didn’t even contest the ball in the ruck and it went straight to a Melbourne goal - that’s a “don’t let the door hit you on the way out” moment. Dude doesn’t care.

Absolutely. He hasn't for over 6 weeks; mad that Fagan keeps selecting him as opposed to someone that would give eveything for this club and then some. Do you honestly reckon Dan's doing that?

Love 2 travel up from Melbourne and still have to work remotely the next day (and not be able to drown my sorrows if we lose)

 

[martinson]

We used the corridor exceptionally well in the first half against them last time.

I winder if they'll give us that luxury again and just back themselves to outrun us and for us to choke.

I'll ask Fagan tomorrow.

Collingwood to BS their way to a grand final

 

[Nunez]

I'm willing to protest outside the club tomorrow and insist our game be moved to a BRAB friendly time. Who's with me?!

 

[Nathan Barley]

What’s wrong with Sunday afternoon?

 

[Elixuh]

I get off my shift at Red Rooster at 3pm so I'm in.

 

[fpm84]

When’s the last time you lost two in a row at the Gabba? I’m tipping years?

Relax, you should have gotten them at the G the other week and you’ll get them at home.

 

[TS13]

must have changed recently, I looked earlier and we were just favourites at I think $1:88 and Tigers $1:92. Maybe the Tiger army has piled in

If anything, probably our own supporter base has jumped on those juicy odds for the Tiges

we're more of a glass half empty cohort here

 

[davemc_lions]

we beat the Tigers by 4 goals we all get our hope back
Then swans will beat Melb and it will disappear in 2 seconds

This bash McStay thing getting is really tiresome and downright childish.

He's been far from our worst over the last many weeks.

It's widely accepted that he's off to the Pies next year but is that a reason to dump on him ad nauseam?

As long as he's wearing a Lions jumper he's got my support. Players going somewhere else under Free Agency is a fact of life in the AFL now.

It's immature to throw the toys out of the cot when these scenarios inventively eventuate

Hes playing bruise free football and in selfpreservation mode and you want to play him. I was critical of Fullarton earlier in the year but seeing him regularly in the reserves, even though he isn't necessarily setting the world on fire, he's cracking in a lot more than Dan is. Secondly, why persist with a set up that isn't working and play the guy that doesn't and wont be here in 1-2 games time?
