Demonland 74,457 Posted July 6, 2023 Posted July 6, 2023 On the one hand it would wipe out an embarrassing record held by the club for 44 years on the other hand the percentage boost it will give Brisbane this season over us might be insurmountable. Having said that I don’t think we’ll be able to catch Brisbane now on wins so percentage may be moot and they’re likely to thrash the Eagles by a lot anyway even if they don’t exceed 190 points. 3 2 3 Quote

Supreme_Demon 4,144 Posted July 6, 2023 Posted July 6, 2023 It would be nice for another team to take on this ignominious record of 190+ points in an AFL game. Imagine the Eagles losing by 200 points! I reckon any loss by over 150+ points will see Adam Simpson sacked. Eagles supporters won't tolerate another humiliating loss. 2 Quote
Demonland 74,457 Posted July 6, 2023 Author Posted July 6, 2023 I have a feeling Brisbane might manage some players this week but still win by 100 plus. 3 Quote
TeamPlayedFine39 8,525 Posted July 6, 2023 Posted July 6, 2023 Never been one for kicking a team whilst they're down but the 1994 Preliminary Final broke my heart as a kid and the 2018 Prelim Final broke it again as an adult. Kick away Lions! 6 2 Quote
Lord Travis 10,819 Posted July 6, 2023 Posted July 6, 2023 On one hand I don’t want Brisbane gaining too much percentage and putting third position on the ladder out of our reach. On the other hand, this is definitely a death ride I can get behind. The Eagles suck and it would be great for them to go a step beyond 186 as the ****test club in the land. 2 Quote

We'll be lucky to make the 8 especially now that Oliver is out of action long term. Lions will almost certainly use this game to manage a few players either omitted or rested for long spells on the bench. Lions win by any margin except 30 goals. Eagles would have to stand around like witches hats for that to happen. Quote
dl4e 5,851 Posted July 6, 2023 Posted July 6, 2023 All I needed to read on a Friday night. I can still remember being at Waverly for that Fitzroy drubbing. Sweet dreams ladies. Quote
Rodney (Balls) Grinter 11,064 Posted July 7, 2023 Posted July 7, 2023 Why stop at 190 points? Becoming the first team to be beaten by the double ton would put it even further in clear air beyond the 186. Also having two losses of that magnitude in the same season and a woeful % would surely see them seen as the worst side in an individual season in the past 20 years. There are a bunch of sides like Carlton and Essendon who have had less sucess than us this century now, so the Eagles being seen as lowly as this would be great. Quote

Chook 15,070 Posted July 8, 2023 Posted July 8, 2023 The Eagles thin veneer of effort has cracked. Here's hoping the lions can run the table now and give us a 200-0 result. Quote
Bring-Back-Powell 15,556 Posted July 8, 2023 Posted July 8, 2023 Lions 44-0 with 4 minutes left to qtr time. Hopefully this is West Coast’s best quarter of the day. Quote
DubDee 26,682 Posted July 8, 2023 Posted July 8, 2023 6 goals in 12 minutes is solid 45 x 4 = 180 Quote
YearOfTheDees 3,266 Posted July 8, 2023 Posted July 8, 2023 I tipped the eagles today. Tipped them into the bin. Quote
Demonland 74,457 Posted July 8, 2023 Author Posted July 8, 2023 Now I just hope West Coast win just to punish the Lions for failing us. 1 1 Quote
