Round 8: Bring On The Lions

Football Discussion Dustin Fletcher Hangar
21

Out: Winderlich (injured), Jackson Merrett (injured), Zach Merrett (omitted)
In: Bellchambers, Gleeson, Ambrose

 
You have included two talls and dropped no talls.
 
Hopelessly unbalanced.

And what's Mrs Merrett going to think? Her two boys play in a winning side together then both get dropped the following week? It's a bit harsh.
22

Flech has a rest to get over the leather poisoning and miss the trip up to Bris.

 

JC plays back to cover Fletch and Belly comes in. Belly to rotate with Ryder ruck/Full Forward

 

 

Out: Winders, Fletch, Jerrett

In: Belly, Ambrose, Gleeson/Aylett*/Dalgleish

 

*I hope it's Aylett

23

We will win in a dour, low scoring ■■■■■ game let's be honest.


This.
24

Chapman Winders out, Ambrose Orazio in. So what the fark happened to Winderlich? Apparently football’s men of literature don’t see fit to report injuries anymore.

Cooney slide into him and he hyperextended his knee. And no a free kick was not paid.

Well it must've been Winder's fault then. Any idea how bad?

Went down to the rooms to get checked (saw Doc Reid go down soon after).
Re-appeared after 5-10 mins and started jogging up and down the boundary without too much difficulty.
Reidy obviously cleared him of any serious structural damage.
Was standing up singing the song with the lads after the game and looked quite happy.
I'd say he could play this week, but they'll rest him anyway.
Bound to be some soreness in that knee this week.
Thank f*ck he looks OK !
28

Bring Gleeson back in please.

Wtf would you bring Fantasia in? One stand out magoos game - that's it.

32

Brisbane, statistically, have the worst defence in the competition conceding an average of 116 points per game.
I still think we will be lucky to score even half of that next week... especially on a ground like the Gabba. An absolute shambolic & poorly structured forward line the culprit.
Fletcher/Hurley/Hooker/Hibberd will again be the keys IF we win this. Brown will come back and play his best game for the year against us (no surprises... why not just announce your retirement in the next few days as well to go out on a high?) & one of our players better grow some balls this week and stand up to that pig Merrett.
They physically beat us up last year and that was the catalyst of their win. Time to get some mongrel.
We blamed the heat for losing in Perth... no doubt the "stifling Brisbane humidity" (pfft!) will come under the microscope if we find a way to fark this game up.

Not too stifling at the moment. It's cold (for here) and dry. In fact would be considered a beautiful day in Melbourne. Apparently to stay like this for a while.

Absolutely. The weather is usually perfect up there this time of year, temperature wise.
The fact we are playing in the twilight/evening hours even more so.
It won't stop the excuse being used by some though if we can't get the job done.

35

Not at all confident until the real Essendon stands up.

Whilst i dont think RAZ will/should come in, i'd imagine the reason would for some extra run/dare and to include a forward who is actually a forward
37

Hurley’s hair will go crazy with all that humidity.

38

The mentioned we did allot of running early in the week and bomber had them doing competitive drills later, any chance we are in a ‘heavy training phase’ again now that the tough part of the draw is over?

Would you suggest cutting it short em?

40

Bit early…let’s just wait and see how everyone pulled up from the game and how the reserves go.
