GAME DAY Tiges v Lions
- Thread starter Mr T.
- Start date
All the so called experts don't give us a hope, which I believe puts all the pressure on them. I actually feel confident we can win strangely enough. #gotiges
Mr Stat's lol got a excuse everytime they get beaten whinger big time.
I'm really surprised 0/12 'experts' tipped Richmond on AFL.com.
I get that we are underdogs,
but no chance?
could be a world first
'nobody gives reigning B2B champs a chance'
Im starting to think Dusty kicks 11 and Brisbane kick the lowest score in history, in a flogging

i don't think we'll win but... we have a lot of things in our favour. They have a couple of outs (Gardiner is the guy that takes Dusty when he goes forward, so that will hurt them), our strong record in Brisbane. 1 loss in 10 years against them, their style of play suits us, a couple of kids will get some confidence from last week.
I reckon Richmond at the line is easy money.

Makes us well matched....we have beaten one good team and lost to three others in the 8.
Hopefully we get the 4points an no injuries, however with so many out for both teams I don’t think will learn much for September
Only 2 reasons people aren’t on board is the QF loss last year, and probably our injury list.
this place has become a 2nd home for us.
No Neale playing either
Agree and our injury lists aren't that different.
We are without Prestia, Edwards, Cotchin, Bolton and Lambert out of our best 22. Our forward line and defence are basically full strength but midfield underdone.
They are without Neale, Berry, Lester and Gardiner. The latter 2 aren't big names but are really important players for the Lions. They generally take the more mobile tall and the next taller opponent. They would have taken Jack and Dusty.
If we can match them in the midfield (particularly around clearances) then we will run them all the way as I think our forward line can stretch their under done backline but we need to move the ball and get seperation inside forward 50 like we did against the Dogs. Reckon Lynch will need to almost play a decoy role and free the forward 50 up for Jack and Dusty. Do that and we win.
Our backline matches up well against their forward line generally.
