Game Day Preliminary Final, 2024 - Geelong vs. Brisbane Lions

[vic_LION]

Just win please

 

[Lazza16]

Is it too early to head to the MCG?

Depends on what time the Royal Hotel in Punt Rd opens

 

[Ceebee]

I know we all want a win here, but I want another epic game for the history books.

Hey fellas, can we have another come from behind classic? This time make it a 50 points in a rear comeback with an after the siren one point win.
Not asking much really.

No , couldn’t handle that .

Oh great FOOTY GODS, we call on you to throw your might behind the BRISBANE LIONS today. Give them the power of self belief and the ability to turn it on for a full four quarters. Bless our centre clearance rate, our pressure inside forward 50, our kicking for goal and our ownership of the corridor. Cast a pox on Geelong and send them the way of Carlton and GWS.

We beseech you FOOTBALL GODS, with offerings of liniment, Juicy Fruit, sweat and tears. Be with us today!

I think Fages is a PK kinda guy. But I like the sentiments!

[harvester]

Go Lions!!!!!!!!!

 

[Nuggo]

Just don't do a Port. Bring the Heat!

 

[3KZ is Football]

Geelong will FEEL THE PAIN!

 

[LoganMorrisFan]

I'm so bloody nervous

 

[GOTHELIONS16]

Up too bloody early, hyped up for it tonight, head off for some pickups and then to the airport for 6.05am flight in an hour or so, 6 rabid Lions supporters in our little group.

Come on boys lets get the job done.

You better hope it’s close, or someone’s going to fall asleep in the crowd tonight.

 

[Bucking Beads]

I feel concerned that you feel positive about a result. Hehe

I haven’t even started on the beers yet either

“I’m a coach who trusts my players, I’ve done that since the day I arrived, and I think that can take you far. And the time to trust them sometimes is when they’re not going all that well - It’s probably the time to do it.”

I'll be happy whatever the outcome today. We've achieved far more as a team than I expected we would this year after our horror start to the season. But f*** it would feel good for Geelong to be the team we beat to make it into another granny.

 

[braddsey]

This is in today’s Age. We beat them in every key statistic. We finished the H&A 9.7% better than Geelong (34 points less in attack, but 181 points better in defence).
Please let out boys take their chances and kick goals we should kick. Do that and the game is ours.

 

[FAIRANDBALANCED]

Rayner, Bailey, Berry and Hipwood. If they play well, you win.

Don't let last week be our grandfinal. Don't let last week be our grandfinal.Don't let last week be our grandfinal.

Since cancer I have 2-3 drinks at home games. Never drink outside that.

Tonight will likely be an exception. I need a crutch to get through this.

They are great to watch after the event but incredibly stressful live .

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Reaching the prelim has already exceeded my expectations after our start to the season and our injuries. It's been an incredible effort with half a defence all year but you won't hear that from the usual commentators.

 

[notliondown]

How fast is milk?

It’s pasteurized before you know it.

So this is it? This is how you want to be remembered? This is your legacy? Really? Milk?

I fear you may have taken Fages analogy of dancing on thin ice just that one step too far...

If you are lucky you will have 1 more week to redeem yourself. I suggest you go away and have a good hard look at yourself in the meantime.

So hopefully a nice swan dinner for our carnivore mascot next week.

For this week let's just put on our big cat pants and send the kitties meowing back to Kardinia Park to lick their wounds and dream they were us.

Hopefully everyone with flights there are no issues and can LIIIIIIOOOOOOONNNNSSSSS for our young men this evening

Supposedly "chaos at Melb airport" due to roadworks happening in and around airport. Great timing as usual, being school holidays and most importantly for Lions fans flying in to get to MCG on time....told to allow extra half hour travel to and from.

In HUN the other day
