The future of Michael Voss and his Lions looks brighter, while Carlton need this win to get ahead in the W-L ration.

If Brisbane play the way they did against the Bombers they could snatch this one. First thing they have to do is stop Murphy who has demolished them in recent times

This is why Raines exists :)

Would not be surprised though if Reddan is given a run with role on Murphy, Reddan really stepping up his work rate over the last couple of games and No 1 tackler at Lions.

And 2nd overall in total tackles don't forget. 8)

3rd in 2012 & 4th in 2011.

I think the match ups all really depend on where Murphy lines up. He started deep forward last week and will likely start there again (still no Betts or Yarran) before pushing up the ground and inserting himself as an extra mid. If that is the case, Raines might go with him when he plays forward and when he moves into the center. Judd normally finds a way to have a field day against Brisbane. The game up at the Gabba last year those two were playing on a completely different level. Waite also played pretty well from memory and he got Sauce on that day. Will be a big job for Patfull as I expect Michael will get Kreuzer due to his height.

With Docherty now possibly in the mix as a late replacement he may be given a run with Murphy role. He has handled these roles in the past and completely blanketed Zorko in the Intraclub trial when he ran with Zorks. (Added fuel to my thoughts on Zorks handling a tag).

Just been advised that all General admission tickets have been sold for this game so will be looking at our best crowd for the season. Come on Boys build on last week.

Just listened to Rockys press conference and he definitely said that Docherty will play giving us run of HB - Sammy Michael will be matching up on the resting ruckman.

He also said that we need to curtail Walkers drive of HB. Mids will play their own game.

Do we read anything into the fact that neither Banfield or O'Brien played in the reserves this afternoon.

Banfield is a spud and not even NEAFL standard, and O'brien is probably injured

Tear shower up Murph :-*

Windigo · May 25, 2013, 04:21:28 PM

I hope so to!

Raines will come though....

Raines will wear him like a glove, be all over him like a rash.
