Last roll of the dice for the Lions, and the Saints need to bounce back!

We'd have to beat the Cats at their home ground to have a chance at finals now :-\
Hopefully the boys get the win in Staker's 150th though :D

Thought I would post before I go to the game - A little worried about this game - We have mot beaten the Saints since 2008 and seem to struggle against teams we are expected to beat (Melbourne and Dogs great examples).
If as reported McEvoy is out Berger should dominate the hit outs so it is up to Reddan and Rockliff to ensure we make the most of them. No Black and no Moloney and without them we have struggled in the clearances. Dal Santo, Steven, Montagna and Hayes sare all class players who will have to be watched.
Riewoldt and Hayes struggling with injury but reports are both will play.
For Stakers benefit lets hope we break the hoodoo against the Saints and record a win in his 150th.

Awesome, hopefully they can both play.

Also Lenny Hayes is a god, looks gone with a hamstring injury, comes back, plays on and gets up the next week

#AFLLionsSaints - Jack Newnes out. Replaced by Ahmed Saad. Subs: Rohan Bewick (BL) and Arryn Siposs (St K)

All McEvoy, Hayes and Riewoldt playing as well as late replacement Saad.

Docherty not the sub at last.

Jack Newnes out. Replaced by Ahmed Saad. Subs: Rohan Bewick (BL) and Arryn Siposs (St K)

That means, Hanley, NRoo, Hayes and Big Boy are all expected to play

nrich102 · August 03, 2013, 06:39:41 PM

WTF? Bewick sub?

nrich102 · August 03, 2013, 08:03:15 PM

Brown done a hammy/calf :'( :(

nrich102 · August 03, 2013, 08:06:51 PM

Brown subbed. Flower :(

Mat0369 · August 03, 2013, 08:11:26 PM

How is Roo looking? Is he moving well?

Money · August 03, 2013, 08:12:29 PM

Staker is killing me.... (yes I have him on field, don't ask)

PowerBug · August 03, 2013, 08:25:04 PM

7 just turned it over to a highlight of Saad having a set shot for goal. God thosw Lions fans were ripping it into him. Brilliant kick to goal that though, that'll make them shut up. :P I've never seen Saad miss a set shot either, such an effective action.
