Unofficial Preview GF v Sydney Discussion

[braddsey]

Was it worth watching?

Nope! Where’s the fun in watching Kingy be a reasonable human for a change?

 

[HirdsTheWord]

rooting for you blokes to win it!

go get em!

Rewatching the round 19 game and poor old Joyce was such a liability in the second quarter.

Gets outbodied when he has better position for Amartey to kick the first goal, then over cooks a corridor kick unpressured to create a turnover for the second.

 

[Denno]

Is it just me (and I know it's not much), but do we look a whole lot more calmer than them (or at least, Papley)?

I don't have the full context, but look at him at 1.10. There's baggage there..........

That's actually just him.

He'd be the same for a H/A game.

Really? Looks like there's almost tears.

Not saying that's bad, but surely he doesn't get like that for H&A?

Maybe I don't watch enough of other teams!

 

[Nuggo]

Wonder how the Dew factor will have an influence on the game:

The Dew factor: Suns' stunning record against Swans

Coincidence or not, Stuart Dew's arrival at Gold Coast has heralded an incredible run of success against his former club

Anyone know of Lions friendly pub in Sydney ?
Thinking to go and sit with supporters if possible.

Never heard of one. There's a few Swans ones, but barely even one GWS one.

was speaking to a Swans mate and he mentioned they're opening up SCG for swans supporters to sit and watch on big screen. I'm sure others can go too, that might be the one this weekend.

Thank you. I hope you will support us on Saturday as well.

 

[HirdsTheWord]

Thank you. I hope you will support us on Saturday as well.

yeah, i am going to the game

 

[Clarkythelion]

Agreed. Real cart before the horse areas.

And that's before we get to the fact we should have an Australian act performing on Grand Final day, rather than jetsetting in some foreigner who wouldn't even be able to draw a football (and I actually don't mind some of Katy Perry's stuff).

Ultimately tho I guess Fagan and co are all about minimising distractions etc this week, of which this would be one if we did make a song and dance out of it.

In the pre-game entertainment she will probably sing the song that goes, "I am a tiger, hear me roar or something like that.

There is some suggestions us Lions fans should yell Lions where ever she sings Tiger

Don't shoot the messenger I just what a mate told me.

 

[M Malice]

Got a couple of activities sorted for our GF experience.

Dinner booked at the Royal Derby Hotel Thursday night, by coincidence the Roar Deal is on there that night as well.

Grand Final parade and open training on Friday.

Might do the Lions walk to the MCG from Federation Square on Saturday.

Yeah Henson Park and the SCG will be open but it's looking like rain on Saturday here. All of the AFL pubs here are, quite rightly, Swans supporting pubs. I imagine places like the Vic on the Park would show the AFL GF before the Rugby so it may be more neutral somewhere like that. The Tudor in Redfern is always my go to but they are massive Swans fans (never been there when the Swans are playing)

Watched a the giants final in 2019 at the courthouse in Newtown.

There was more than 5 less than 10 of us in Lions scarves.

About the best you can do

KISS is going to be a hard act to follow, they were fantastic.

Is there an official March from fed square as well or you’re referring to the roar deal one at midday? It’d be good if the club could advertise this to get as many people going at once. I did it last year from the roar deal brunch and it was great atmosphere.

 

[DreadBat5701894]

The Big O has officially been ruled out

I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter
Dancing through the fire
'Cause I am a champion, and you're gonna hear me roar
Louder, louder than a lion
'Cause I am a champion, and you're gonna hear me roar

The chorus already has lion in there - so we should be okay!

Thought they were going melt though.

It's The Roar Deal one I assume, our itinerary is being planned by someone else, I'm just tagging along for the ride.

Anxious for Grasshopper17 to provide quarter by quarter percentage breakdowns for the Royboys in 1899.

Midday.
