Preview Rd 19. GC SUNS v Brisbane Lions @ The Gabba - Saturday 4:40pm

[Experimental]

OUT: Thompson

IN: Raines (for lols)

Losing Rory's height probably won't impact on our game too much given the Lions' lack of talls, so other than losing him, I don't think there's anyone who overwhelmingly deserves to be dropped.

Wouldn't mind seeing Garlett back in the seniors, but his NEAFL stats weren't all that flash. Wouldn't be too concerned with leaving him in the ressies for a few weeks.

As for McKenzie, the game against West Coast proved we don't need him in our defence, meaning Boston can come in for our 22 as a non-emergency. He should stay in the NEAFL for the rest of the year.

Schade is more than capable playing key defence against their smaller key forwards.

Thompson out and Rischitelli back in if all is well with him.

Actually forgot about Rischa - definite in if he's feeling okay and his mum's okay!

Leuy is out with his knee
Beams with his shoulder

This game is a win/win for us, win and we get the satisfaction of 4 points and move 2 points clear of Carlton lose and we get the number 1 pick

 

[Deleted member 2402071]

Rischa & McKenzie in for me.

Stanley ready & waiting depending on other injuries. He would be handy to help rotations through the middle if he did play?

Need McKenzie to cover the loss of Thompson down back, and allows Day to play fwd/ruck to stretch the Lions defence.

B. McKenzie, Schade, Kolo
HB. Harbrow, May, Saad
C. Malceski, Miller, Shaw
HF. Bennell, Lynch, Martin
F. Day, Dixon, Matera

R. Nichols, Rischa, Lonergan

Int from: Russell, Hall, Lemmens,
Boston, Glenn, Stanley

What side is Dixon play for?

[Iva Bigun]

I know it's a long shot but does anyone have tickets for this game they are not going to us, I have a couple of German guys that want to experience AFL

A Suns win would get the ledger back to a more respectable 6-4 in favour of the Lions.

Dixon would want to put on a show otherwise the fans (and perhaps Lions management) may have second guesses about paying an injury prone forward 750k a year. I'm not sure Charlie has ever played well at the Gabba...

 

[kreglze]

Want this win bad. No Beams and no Leuy means a good win is there for the taking.

Especially after our last Qclash at the Gabba...

If May could bump Rockliff at the start of the match again that would be great. With Beams out he is by far their best player.

I lost all respect for Rockliff when he refused to comment on the Maysie bump. Cowardly campaigner.

Hope he gets his ribs broken again from a Maysie shoulder charge.

 

[Donble]

They destroyed us in this fixture last year , its payback time lads.

 

[SandyToes]

We have to start evening up the Q Clash ledger
This is a good week to start

 

[Ben Drever]

Suns win good for both clubs and the AFL this weekend?

[Suns of Anarchy]

Our academy team could beat the Lions this week. They aren't interested in competing let alone winning.

 

[Experimental]

Suns have the potential to win by 60 points, or to at least keep Brisbane to a very low score. Bring it on.

 

[pOleK]

I know we're on the bottom but we have had potential to challenge teams going for the flag (e.g. Sydney, Fremantle). I know you guys drew with West Coast (how rare is that) but I'm expecting (and hoping for) a good match.

Me too mate. Until there's a 'real' rivalry between the Suns and Lions (keep your hands of my Dicko), all I hope for is an entertaining brand of footy regardless of score.

Couldn't do worse than a repeat of our NAB Cup game

Hope he gets his ribs broken again from a Maysie shoulder charge.

He came down to Morningside and conducted training with my Under 8's team a few weeks ago. he was actually a really nice guy, humble and had plenty of time for the kids.

I hope you used your hulk physique to give him a biff or two

 

[Ben Drever]

I wonder if having a fouth umpire for our match means they know how bad a match it'll be
