Autopsy Round 7 2024 - GWS Giants vs Brisbane Lions, Thursday 25 April, 7.30 pm AEST @ Manuka Oval

[Giant Strides]

Game day. A chilly dawn this morning at the War Memorial, turning into a beautiful sunny day in the capital. However, expect tonight to get cool for this game. I daresay neither side will really relish those conditions, but it's the performance that will be telling. Which side can bounce back from last week's defeat? Hopefully, despite the outs, it will be GWS. To do so, the midfield must stand up, in both the contest and team defence. Without Sam Taylor

, we're leaving too much for the defenders to do if they have to combat a lot of ball coming in.

Congrats to Darcy Jones on your debut, and also to Jack Buckley for 50 games.

C'mon Giants, let's make Manuka a fortress and get a strong win tonight!

Time to bounce back. Kick some pussy ass.

It promises to be an exciting game. We have never ever beaten the Lions in the two games we have played at Manuka, although the market has us as slight favourites tonight.

Really looking forward to the atmosphere of the first ever night Anzac Day match for us in the Capital - there was a previous Anzac Day AFL match in Canberra, but that game against Gold Coast during 2015 and started at 1730.

 

[Land of the Giants]

It's going to be about 7 degrees by the last quarter.

to have a monster. He’s been a bit quiet, but his last 4-6 games last year, he was taking over…

I reckon there's a good chance he'll make a good showing for his fan club in Canberra.

I really want Briggs to have a big game. He's been struggling the last couple of matches, but with McInerney out and Darcy Fort in the ruck, this a great opportunity for him to dominate and get back into some good form. Would really help our midfield too.

Really hope Darcy jones doesn’t start sub. I reckon he is going to be good for us.

However I get the feeling he will play a full game if Daniels doesn’t get up and will be sub to cover him if he doesn’t make it though.

Will be about 7 degrees by the time the match finishes - good day to wear the Giants jumper I got for Christmas

I thought that after Callum Brown’s “debut” as a sub, where he didn’t end up playing a game, our club now plays debutants in the starting 22?

Some doubt on his knee, I would guess.
