Who will win?
Option 1: Kangaroos
votes: 13
Option 2: Lions
votes: 2
Option 3: Draw
votes: 1
Roos need to win this one if they are to challenge for Top 8. Lions have been impressive in recent weeks with youngsters stepping up. Could go either way but favour Roos at home.
Kangaroos fairly easily
Roos comfortably. Reckon Rocky will have a day out though
This is the sort of game the Kanga's would lose
Brisbane a chance
Yeh Roo's here, sorry Ringo and the Brissy boys. ;)
Roos will win. they'll be back up after a shocker last week. Brisbane have been impressive though
Want to see Lions do this. Roos just fail to convince - way too often. :-\

Brisbane youngens have been good , maybe not fantasy wise but doing well. Can see this being tougher than most think but still lean towards the Roo's.
Depends which North rocks up to play, last week they were terrible and would look to bounce back as Brisbane are slowly getting a little bit better each week the trip over to Melbourne might be too much for the young lions.
North by 35
Ugh, can't believe I'm saying this... The Roos will win this easy.
Kangas by 60+
North will be too strong and at Etihad, I expect it to be a 40+ win.
Yeah Kangaroos will win this easily. Home game against a hit-and-miss side, could very well be a blowout if the Roos bring their A-game.
Could go either way? In no way do I see this going Brisbanes way, and if it did, heads would roll at the Roos.
Really hoping the North of round 7 shows up, and not the North of round 6 haha
If it's the former, then we definitely have a chance. Just need to keep fighting and not drop off towards the end of the 3rd qtr, and then the 4th
I can see Petrie kicking a bag though :-\
The most under the pump coach this week is Brad Scott. The roos will want to come out firing after their performance 2 weeks ago against Gold Coast.
Brisbane tried hard last week but have a long way to go, their only win was by less than a goal against St Kilda. North by 10+ goals.
Lions have a good chance, but think the roos should scrape past.

Hoping that Levi goes to him after his terrific 3/4 game on GAJ last time out. Will be watching with interest. ;)
Hey guys, chances beams will be sub?
Brisbane by 50 and to go on to make a run for the 8 in future rounds.

High
Reasonably high I reckon as he has come in for Robbo who was the sub last week. May start the game though and be red vested. Was hoping that he would get another game in NEAFL to get match fitness.

Rockliff out will hurt a lot
omg
FIRST HAMPSON SUBBED AND NOW ROCKY OUT OH MY GOD I AM GOING TO DELETE MY TEAM
Good thing Beams scored respectively for my VC.......
Robertson in! ;D
i need a bottle of scotch or something
So effectively for me I have gone from Rocky most likely 100+ score to whatever a subbed Robertson can provide... man bye rounds invite carnage
i have Mullett in AF and AF Elite
i have Rockliff in SC and AF
Robbo in :)
LATE CHANGES
North Melbourne: Aaron Mullett replaced by Scott McMahon
Brisbane Lions: Joel Patfull replaced by Nick Robertson, Tom Rockliff replaced by Michael Close
FINAL INTERCHANGES
North Melbourne: Leigh Adams, Sam Wright, Levi Greenwood
Substitute: Ryan Bastinac
Brisbane Lions: Dayne Zorko, Claye Beams, Tom Cutler
Substitute: Nick Robertson
At least Robbo is sub so will not regret trading out.
Got Rocky C in DT and AF. Which means I get Swan and Beams as C in those comps respectively.
Taylor comes on for Rocky in SC.
I've been giving my mate shower all week cause my team is just way ahead of his, and now he'll just get over the line cause of Rocky and Hammer, and him giving JPK the C
Brisbane Lions @brisbanelions 7m
2 late changes team, @rockwiz38 & @jpatfull24 out with illness, replaced by @MichaelClose33 & @nichrobbo who is also the sub #AFLNorthLions
Just to confirm that virus may be effecting Lions -
Well that gives my North tip a good 99% confidence with Rocky and Patfull out
the bye curse is in full swing go Brissy
i need robo to come on earlier, dont want to keep JKHs score in the 18
when your ready Zorko
Tippett getting a bit of the ball early. Keep it up (Traded him in for Robertson).
Its great that Zorko is in the backline ::)
brought Boomer into my DT this week :)

Zorko, Hanley and Taylor for me. Just going swimmingly...
Couldn't trade out lmac in time :(
It is obvious a couple of players for Lions are playing under duress with illness - Merrett and Zorko for 2.

Not arguing about the frees but want some consistency both ways - there shopuld of been some HTB Brisbane way which was not and do not get me started on incorrect disposals.
Bad enough with players playing under duress without coping with one sided umpiring.
Went Polec to Sam Gibson in fantasy as a unique this week. Not regretting that at the moment.
hoping Swallow has a quiet one and is subbed off though not sure i'd get him anyway

Your a Brisbane man Ringo you say they have a virus going through them I take that is why Rocky is out but what happened to Robertson he seem to fall out of favor with the coach pretty quickly after a couple of what I thought good games for a young bloke ?

You will do GL but Beams only come back this week he was out last week to? and by the look of Zorko today he should be out there but not ? he must have of done something wrong just wondered why he is on the blacklist

Gl hit it on the head although I thought Beams should have had another game in reserves and come in after byes. Expecting Beams to get the Red and Robbo come on but will depend on how the flu effected players are travelling.
Do not like making excuses but think this time it is legitimate with North virtually playing an Under 20 side with a couple of Seniors thrown in for support. 14 players for Brisbane aged 21 or less.
Zorko, Merrett and Golby probably should not be playing either but forcerd to play through.
3 North players with 20+ disposals at half time. Pity I have the one on 11 points instead ::)
Zorko, go flower yourself.

Cheers just that he got short shifted out of the team pretty quickly thought might be a discipline thing or something anyway looks like they need to get him on pronto Zorko just not having any affect
Lol at Brad Scott: "Get flowering McDonald off the field. Now!!"
Serious
Congrats! You've just earned the SERIOUS BADGE for checking in on FanFooty during a live match 50 times!
:o
Zorko is the most frustrating player in SC hands down
Every week I have no idea what I'm going to get from him, and today is just pathetic for a "premium"
>:(
Yup, he is out of my AF team. As soon as I fix all of the other holes ::)
Easy to say RD but believe Zorko may not have played if we had more travelling emergencies due to Flu.
Lift Cutler, Goldy, Taylor. FFS ruining my nice round guys.

Has gastro or whatever it is going through our team, so was played deep forward in a game where we're getting absolutely destroyed. I'd bet he averages at least 85+ from this point onwards, probably closer to 90/95. For around 350k, that's a bargain and could be very valuable in finals when other players get rested
At least I don't have to cop Zorko's pathetic score this week.
I'm not copping Zorko's 16 and Hampson's 31
Polec to Jelwood is happening now. I'd rather cop the 20k price drop Jelwood would have and get his points today plus get those 2 out of my score as Jelwood gives me 20 players
