Changes for Next Week Brisbane

It would help if we could hit him on the chest for once.
He dislocated 13 bones marking that pass by Short against GC.
I said straight away that's hurt him, 5 mins later he is getting checked by the doctor.
We are our own worse enemy
Our delivery to him is an abomination.
We either sit it on his head and let him get clobbered or we put it 3 feet over him.

Can’t believe Nank is playing since he can’t run or jump in recent games
Thought Soldo would’ve been our main ruck with Balta as backup
How is it going to look like dropping your captain for soldo.
Nakas shouldve been dropped after the Sydney game and after his efforts against North.
He has been pretty bad this year
 
Structurally sounder with J. Lynch back but a bit slow looking without MJ and Ralph in it.

I think with ralphsmith the MC perhaps weighed up his speed which we can cover with Short going back as the 7th defender and Ross into the midfield.
We need to win more ball hence Ross. But watching junior last week in the ressies he was frenetic, his speed and pressure would have the lion's forwards on edge.

I would like him in the team sooner rather than later.

We have smashed him.
Imagine if Lynch got the lolly pops passes that fatguts gets

No problem with the in’s.

Just don’t know how fit Nank is. Big day I suspect coming up for Balta as the back up.

Thought we would have a chance. But looks like a few guys have been knocking back a few Jim Beams .

We are going to carry a broken and ineffectual Nankervis through another game.

Selection continues to be an issue this year.

Based on recent performance, Soldo should be first ruck ahead of Nank.

At the moment, Nank is being selected on the fact that he's captain. I've always judged other teams for doing that. It's not a good sign for the interior state of our club.

Having said that, Nank is a 3 time premiership ruckman, so it feels a little reactionary to be critical right now. He certainly has the credits.

The difference between Nank and other stars who have struggled this year is that we do have players who are more impactful who can play his position.

Let's hope he recovers some form this week. It's a critical match to be wagering on that in such an important position.

Going in underdone games wise as Lions most inexperienced players are Coleman 32 & Answerth 28 games under their belts. Tigers match committee going in with Miller 7 Cumberland 4 & Sonsie 2 games played must be saying lots of Hail Mary's.. Cannot understand why Stack & Castagna aint in. Expect Robbo Mathieson & Adams come out niggling bigtime.

How many ruckmen do this? Pretty bad this year is a bit melodramatic.

Soldo offered so much more than Nank last week. Integrity of selection again an issue.

McInerney will crush Nank at centre bounces.

But generally Nank will beat him around the ground, but at the moment he just doesn't look fit. I'm concerned.

Midfield easily our biggest weakness atm, I reckon dropping Soldo is a mistake

Nank has carried an injury for a few weeks. Played out of position last week. Has got 9 day break into this game.
He is a miles better footballer than Soldo, at least Nank can pick it up, and handball it.
People on here have lost the plot after a few losses. Need a whipping boy

If Soldo was Max Gawn I could cop this. You basing it on one game? The amount of times Soldo hits it straight to the Oppo astounds me

Yeah I'm not saying he's Polly farmer, but Soldo does get his hand on the footy. And before ACL was developing a great bond with Shai in the middle.

We are going into sunday already conceding the bounce, and very likely the centre clearance. Nank is not fit.

Gonna be back to attack from defence blueprint, pray for turnover game.

Maybe he is getting back to fitness? 9 day break
