I heard Daisy Thomas on MMM talking about the losses. He made the point that the Gabba and Marvel are both shorter and skinnier than the MCG, it's harder to defend space at the G.

Frampton in, makes total sense. Go Pies.


CORRECT, at Gabba we had NO rucks, at Marvel shithole we had no Moore, Hill, Jamie, and JDG, from memory. The MCG is a house of horrors for Lions, and we will take full advantage of it. Frampton comes alive,makes perfect sense to me, too. In Fly we trust. :o 8)
i get that, but they are, in reality, just excuses. If we lose the GF, will we be saying that last time we played them without Adams and McStay.

Fact is you have to win with team you have. And so far, we have failed to do that on 6 consecutive occasions

Sick of the talk. Can we skip a few days?
The match day thread is for unfiltered BS knee jerk reactions. The time for level headed comment comes after.

Hopefully Frampton can play his role as well as Leigh Brown did in 2010!

The sub has got to be Ginnivan. He brings so much X factor and can kick goals from anywhere.

The pricks cannot beat us on the MCG, werent all the wins up at the Gabba hick shithole not the G ?? Oh and to quote the late Ron Barassi, "Injuries to vital players are not an excuse, they are a REASON". I wlll take Rons advice over any one elses. :o

I am starting a celebration drink tomorrow. It’s ours in 2023. Magpies fans should now join me in a celebratory toast to our awesome Victory. Flagpies. Floreat Pica
I love this club and I hold anyone in contempt who does not think it is worth fighting for.
