Last night, I dreamed I was swimming in an ocean of orange soda. But it was just a Fanta sea.

The Ladder is tight, we need this win and I don't care how, if we can walk away with the points I wont mind sitting at the Gabba tonight even if there is a little rain and it's freezing for Queenslanders. .

I hope we've learnt from the Geelong game earlier in the year and play to the wet conditions smarter.

[MacMum]

We could, we should....but will we?

Now is the time to really start putting these other teams on notice.....get out of our way!

 

[Jivlain]

Where is here?

Just north of Birmingham (the English one)

I am looking at similar skies in Brissy at the moment.

 

[Perrip]

Partly cloudy. Medium chance of showers. Light winds becoming southeasterly 15 to 20 km/h in the middle of the day then becoming light in the evening.

Should be perfect weather for the game

IF Payne plays....38pt win....if not....5pt win.

Did you ask ChatGPT to come up with that one?.

I feel the Lions don't really play that well against the Crows. Not quiet a team that has the wood over us but games have (at least from memory) been rather close. Danger game.

 

[M Malice]

Lions by 12 goals, Charlie with 6 goals.

They take away our strengths by playing very tight, all over the ground.
I am expecting a very tightly
contested game, so our mids once again will need to be up for the fight.

Look if we are ever going to win the whole thing, we need to own it when the pressure is on and tonight gives us an opportunity to make a statement

Go Lions!

Before the bye I'd have said that too. But recently I think the coaching staff have been so much better with our game plans and the team has been pretty good at following them. We've made quick onfield decisions that have been successful, eg subbing Morris. The team also looks like they are enjoying their football again and enjoying the challenge to save the season.

It will be physical, the midfield will have to nut up. I hope Paynes foot is 100%, cos he doesn't go real well carrying a niggle. Crows have a versatile fwd group, the back 6 will need to be on their toes. A little drop in accuracy last week that hopefully improves. They are the only concerns I have with this game. Play tough, play smart and kick straight, that's all that's needed to win this.

It’s a cool 30 degrees and 80% humidity here this morning.

Much needed ice cold coconut milk coffee after a morning jaunt.
