Round 23 - Other Games aka the final countdown

[Tames]

Ben Brown a bit unlucky - pipped for the Coleman two years running thanks to Gold Coast's leaky defence. Led for 17 rounds last year - nobody has led for longer without winning.

I cant stand him. Gets more goals from pathetic frees than anyone in the league.

 

[zippadeee]

We were 51 points up against Scumwood with 5 minutes to go and let them kick 3 soft goals to finish the game. I was spewing about it. We smashed them and 32 points did not do it justice.

Now it’s about to cost us top 4 or home final.

Thats the only thing we are really bad at.
Gc we were virtually up 100 at half time and we won by 90.
It should've bern 120+ win
Port the same should've been over 10 goals.

 

[TigerForce]

Their second game at the G all year against a finals opponent and you reckon they'll tank it?

Probably not. Result means nothing to them as they meet us either way at their home and better prepared.

Depends on their strategy, because if they win, they'll meet WC at home. Which ones harder for them? Us or WC?

 

[Stoobes]

I make it 69 (depending on the scoreline). Points difference is 136.

The more we score the worst their points against go so it works against them

 

[zippadeee]

It doesn't matter, 103-40 same deal we'll be ahead by 0.033%. 63pts is the number

Thats the score i can see us getting.
16-18 goals to 6-8 goals

On form you'd say us, assuming we win tomorrow, WCE on a three game losing streak.

 

[zippadeee]

Any of Castagna lynch jack and caddy start missing goals tommorow
im not going to be happy

 

[Tigerfan]

I just want a win tomorrow.
A good tune up for the finals.
A double chance.
No injuries.
I'm not fearful of Brisbane at the Gabba.
All the pressure will be on them.

We won our last 8 at the Gabba
And beaten Brisbane the last 12 times.

Rather Cameron win it then that clown.
Even if Brown won it they should just give the medal to the umpires.
How many goals come from direct free kicks?
I bet out of 60, 20 would be free's

 

[zippadeee]

We won our last 8 at the Gabba
And beaten Brisbane the last 12 times.

Thats the bit that worries me.
Especially now Carthwaite is in the side.
He is a disaster

 

[tha8ball]

After watching collingwood and the eagles this weekend - I’m convinced we are the best side in it. Just keep ticking the boxes and the rest will take care of itself. Next box - lock away top 4 tmrw.

 

[Tigers of Old]

We're in the finals that's the main thing. This squad is good enough to win from anywhere.

Bring it.

 

[Ridley]

Thats the bit that worries me.
Especially now Carthwaite is in the side.
He is a disaster

Is Grimes definitely out?

 

[zippadeee]

Is Grimes definitely out?

People on here are saying it.
Carthwaite is crap.
Every time he plays we look like a bottom 4 side

 

[TigerForce]

We're in the finals that's the main thing. This squad is good enough to win from anywhere.

Bring it.

Yeah, f...k the permutation headaches, just win!!

 

[zippadeee]

Is Grimes definitely out?

Just checked the AFL teams
Grimes is still in.
Having a look at the Brisbane line up.
That's a really *smile* side.
Besides Zorko McCluggage and Neale the rest are pototoes
Hodge on bolton, bolton should kick 6

 

[AngryAnt]

Yeah, f...k the permutation headaches, just win!!

The funny thing for me is that id we win we will finish higher than we expected and people *smile* and moan about %.

 

[royce67]

can we lose to Brisbane by a point and retain 4th spot?

No, but draw and we go to third and cats drop to second.

 

[Tigerfan]

Can we lose tomorrow and still hold onto 4th? A draw would be perfect

Let’s beat Bris by 70
