  1. What they are saying about Melbourne’s win over Crows Why does Tom Sparrow look more like Todd Viney than Jack Viney? Melbourne's clash jumper looks really nice I wish the media hadn't got stuck into Melbourne They're getting a bit of teamwork back into their game. Really wish van Rooyen had lasted one more pick in his draft After the dozens of throws Melbourne have got away with they ping an Adelaide player for that? Melbourne's game style often makes for ordinary games What they are saying about Max Gawn's marking around the game has returned after it became a bit inconsistent. Need to take that away from him Oscar needs to go with Gawn and neutralise him Would it make sense to bring Fort back in to double team Gawn? Just get both of them to rotate often and just smash into him I don’t know if Oscar has it in him to play mean and nasty Gawn is possibly the best ruckman of this century (I think I am starting to have him ahead of Cox) and Gawn is in good form again Oscar quite often starts really well against Gawn and Gawn has mentioned before that Oscar is one of the hardest Rucks for him to play against but Gawn usually wins the battle because he can lasts a whole game. And always finishes much stronger Reality is Gawn is a champion player and Oscar , for all that we love him, is an average one All I see is Gawn running in to attack the ball and Oscar trying to react to him, which is so not good with Melb. midfield I can see this game panning out anything from a big Demons win to a narrow Lions win, we need to bring the heat for all 4 quarters or we will get smashed Everything else Ben Brown serves as the Dees big tall forward and has posed problems for us in the past There is little point hoping Rayner can step up in the midfield this Thursday. The last time we played Melbourne in Rd.18, 2023, Rayner had a paltry 8 disposals, managing only 3 in the first half. That game he attended 4 centre bounces and managed 0 clearances for the game. He also failed to hold a mark. This sort of clutch, big occasion game in Melbourne is precisely the sort of game that Rayner goes missing in It's very satisfying beating Melbourne - they play a horrible style of football but are hard to win against I reckon Fritsch is a very smart player and would love to have him at the Lions. Despite everyone I speak to seeming to have some sort of dislike for him for a variety of reasons And my two favourites . . . But the big question I think every Lions fan is wondering...will the dees inject the deadly Schacheattack into the side to dominate us. We will have to wait and see Let’s hope Fagan isn’t playing the whale song and burning the relaxing aromatic oils at half time this week. His ability to put a team to sleep or not keep them on their toes is becoming legendary. Can’t afford the Traditional In-game Nap Time this week. #TINT
  2. HTF has Stanley played 200 games?
  3. Tim Kelly, Josh Caddy, Greg Williams, Adrian Fletcher, Phil Baker, Doug Wade.
  4. Pulling the trigger quickly on Bevo DD. He had 'em in a granny two and a bit years ago.
  5. He was in the magoos last week.
  6. You answered a different question to the one I posed. I stand by my claim.
  7. In the last 50 years, provide one instance when the VFL/AFL favored us?
  8. He's an honest plodder is JJ. I remember someone on here predicted he was the next Pendleberry (or someone similar). I almost choked on my Cornies that morning.
  9. Why did they get rid of their first jumper - the one they wore when they first entered the comp?
  10. Mindless footballer.
  11. I've just spent an hour readying this thread. Outside of the Deez's two wins in the last seven dayz, this has been the best hour of my week.
  12. Absolutely gold @Biffen. I wish I had the talent to write this type of stuff.
  13. You don't need a tape measure Brian. It's about 1 and a half inches.
  14. For me, Brad Scott and 'climax' is an oxymora, but I take your point @Demonsterative
  15. I take your point @Ethan Tremblay. But what I also see is a guy who delegates well and trusts his lieutenants and players.
  16. And all I hear from Essenscum supporters is that they have big Cox.
  17. And Brayshaw.
  18. How nauseating is Taylor - six times a quarter telling us how ^&*(ing marvelous gather round is?
  19. According to Roo-Shoot-ooh, Port are on the verge of having the greatest midfield of all time
  20. You know the Bummers are really battling when Gresham is their best player.
  21. If nothing else, Port's performance tonight, against average oppo it must be said, makes our win over them all the more meritorious.
  22. I'm calling Judd McVee 'dirty' - as in 'dirt cheap'. Could get confusing with Marty back at the Club though.
  23. As I understand it, they had more 'assistance' in 2005/06 than any other club. Hand back the 2006 flag and draft assistance will be considered - after which the answer will be GAGF.
  24. A new GG. Really? Is it Max? Daisy perhaps?
