Game Day Rd 23 Tigers v Lions - Reasonably large final H & A game day thread

[Baloo]

Any news on grimes ?

None. We're Optimustic he'll play

Here’s today’s official TAF (Terminal Area Forecast) for Melb today everyone
For those that need help reading it, and I’m assuming most of you haha, it basically means this..
Currently a light westerly breeze and partly cloudy
Between 8am and 9am, the wind is tending more sth westerly with the odd passing shower
From 4pm, the wind will be a lighter southerly, no showers, and still only a bit of cloud about...
It won’t get past about 10degrees, but basically it’s gonns be bloody cold later on..

So, in a nutshell, should be relatively dry for the game, not much wind, but damn cold.
Now my question today for all you knowledge thirsty gurus out there...
What’s the meaning of the 9999 on the forecast?

The first person to find me in the MRC today with the correct answer gets a free beer!
Cheers,
Go Tigers!

Jane Bunn couldn’t have done a better job

One thing Brisbane seemed to have tried in recent seasons , is over the top cheap shots on dusty , lots of off the ball stuff , more so when we have played them up there,

Maybe now they are a better team , they are above that

Dusty tends to turn it on against the Lions, be nice to see him blitz them again today.

Haha...thanks eddazol
I must admit that a bit of Jane Bunn was going thru my mind when typing it.....but I could never compete with her commentary.

Just looking out the window now, it’s pretty much as per the TAF (but no real rain yet).....

Reckon we will have a caddyjack performance today.

 

[fastin bulbous]

Ive asked the Mods to merger. Then again it might be a good day to trial splitting Game Day threads into 2. Feral Darksiders moaning in one, Realists in another.

I believe the un - realists deserve equal representation

 

[TigerPort]

Maybe a third for the Hindsighters?

Wouldn't a hindsight one start immediately after the game finishes?

 

[Don’t Argue]

Haha...thanks eddazol

Don’t worry about the weather Jetboy. How about flying us all up to Brisbane!!
Are you with Tiger airlines?

Haha......that would be appropriate, however I’m with the leagues official carrier....and I’d love to fly everyone to Brissie, but that would mean that I’d be working, hence no frothies......so yeah, nah! Lol

 

[Jetboy]

visibility is good .. maybe from an aeroplane

Haha.....close to the mark Taz, but how good?.......a beer awaits at the MRC to the one that gets it right....today only, and in person

 

[spook]

Haha.....close to the mark Taz, but how good?.......a beer awaits at the MRC to the one that gets it right....today only, and in person

10km or more

 

[Jetboy]

10km or more

Give the man a cigar.......make that a beer......good one Spook, the beer is yours if you catch me at the MRC today

 

[kiwitiger]

May be wrong but cant help but feel us needing the win more than brisbane should be the difference today ,

I mean for them what is better, first or second ? you could toss a coin on that one ,

But for us , the difference between winning and losing is far more significant

 

[TigerForce]

And a weather report thanks.

All schizo. Fine and sunny with clouds and possible showers. Still air, no breeze. Can't work out if it's too cold to wear t-shirt and shorts or too warm to wear a jumper and pants.

 

[kiwitiger]

If we do get any rain, I dont think it will be much , light and not too frequent

 

[Tigerfan]

Can we avoid a repeat of last weeks first quarter please?

 

[eddazol]

Haha......that would be appropriate, however I’m with the leagues official carrier....and I’d love to fly everyone to Brissie, but that would mean that I’d be working, hence no frothies......so yeah, nah! Lol

It could be a mad rush for flights to Brisbane in a fortnight.

 

[Tigerfan]

Brisbane away from Gabba

Have beaten

Port -Adelaide
St Kilda - marvel
North - marvel
Giants - Sydney
Hawks -.tasmania
Gold Coast - Metricon

Have lost to

Essendon (mcg)
Carlton (marvel)
Western bulldogs (Ballarat)
Fremantle (Perth)

None of those teams are exactly having their best year. Those losses say to me that they are gettable.
