On the Couch reporter last night said Rich is expected to only miss 1-2 weeks by the brisbane lions after the scans results. Have you guys heard the same?

Allison is a good size ( 6'4" in the old) could be a third tall fwd optionSounds like Matho has had a minor hamstring issue. Not sure they would bring in someone who hasn't been on the park. Can't see any need to drop Bell for this week given there are two forced changes anyway. I thought before the St Kilda game we were a tall short and that applies equally to this week. Although he doesn't play key position, it is probably another argument in favour of Allison or even the Big O. Cutler seems the obvious inclusion up forward with a few positional changes.
Not tragic, just loyal. Yes the long trip home after a loss can be a downer. By the way, when we play at Geelong, which seems to be every year these days, that's about the same round trip for some of us travelling from Melbourne.Am I a Footy/Lions tragic, or what?
Going away as of tomorrow for the Easter weekend.
Planning to drive the hour and a half back to the Gabba to watch the game on the weekend and then drive back after the game.
I hope they put in a good performance, or else it will be a long, sad trip back after the game.

And on the way back you tell 'em to heat the pies and cool the tinnies.That's exactly what I'm doing as well. Partner is not happy, as we're down at Coomera with 15 others, and quickly driving back to the Gabba at around 4pm. How great would it be for a thrilling win by the Lions

Over the years Lions fans have been conditioned to expect the worst when we here 'indefinite' or 'week by week' assessment!On the Couch reporter last night said Rich is expected to only miss 1-2 weeks by the brisbane lions after the scans results. Have you guys heard the same?

Yep I am Camping too. Cant miss the first Lions home game though.Doing the same from camping at Rathdowney this weekend. No doubt those around me at the ground will enjoy the stench of showering in the creek and campfire remnants.
Bring back Easter Thursday!
I'm doing something similar. Not expecting a win but looking forward a solid effort (fingers crossed)Am I a Footy/Lions tragic, or what?

So being my first ever Gabba game, where should we go for pre/post-game drinks? We are staying near the ground. Any other recommendations?
Great initiative by the club, particularly if it is regular feature each week.
Do you think they will do the weekly update each week?
You would have to wonder if he was so effective, why he would be in danger of being dropped.?He had the second higest total of pressure acts of all players in the game mate.
The whole "Bell doesn't use his body" shtick is groupthink from previous years. His spot is by no means safe, but it is for reasons other than him not using his body. He's shown in both the JLT and round 1 his contested work has improved. He was 2 CP off being equal first for the match and 3 clearances off Beams' total.
That call is coming from the glass half empty and lets make sure we have a whipping boy brigadeYou would have to wonder if he was so effective, why he would be in danger of being dropped.?

Our work group used to have a weekly meeting about every two or three weeks.Do you think they will do the weekly update each week?
Let's call these posters for what they are, sado-masochists.FWIW while Bell is definitely the whipping boy for some on here (posting records would show those who harp on him more often than is sane) it's also possible to have a negative opinion of a player that's able to be backed up with well-reasoned arguments (not based off their running style) without it deviating into whipping boy territory, whether that's Bell or Keays or Barrett or others. While some posters go too far one way, throwing away all opposing arguments because "whipping boy" is correspondingly unconstructive.
