Kangaroos vs Brisbane Lions – Gold Coast Stadium – Sat, 2nd August

North Melbourne Kangaroos vs Brisbane Lions

• Round – 18
• Venue – Gold Coast Stadium
• City – Gold Coast
• Date – Saturday, 2nd August 2008
• Kick Off – Game starts at 7.10pm

The Roos vs The Lions should be a close game at Gold Coast Stadium. Going for North Melbourne, and I have tipped North Melbourne to win. The Roos are 5th on the AFL ladder and The Lions are 8th on the AFL ladder – North Melbourne played really well against Melbourne last weekend winning by 28 points, although it wasn’t a tough game for them. Brisbane were defeated by Richmond in a blockbuster last weekend losing by 3 points. This should be an awesome game. Go The Roos!! – Game starts at 7.10pm

North Melbourne Kangaroos

The Roos are having great year this season. They gave The Dees a 28 point whipping last weekend. They have won 4 out of the last 5 games – They should’nt have a problem with being in the finals. They should beat The Lions in a very close game at Gold Coast Stadium. Tipping North Melborne, Go The Roos!!

Brisbane Lions

The Lions are having an above average year. They were beaten by Richmond last weekend, in a game they should have won. They have only won 2 out of the last 5 games. Win against North Melbourne today and they might get into the eight. Go The Lions!!!

Last time they met – North Melbourne Kangaroos v Brisbane Lions

The last 3 times North Melbourne Kangaroos & Brisbane Lions played – The Lions have won 3 out of 4 games. In 2006 at Telstra Dome by 1 point. In 2007 at Gold Coast Stadium The Roos won by 24 points and The Lions then won later in the year by 37 points at The Gabba. In 2008 the The Lions won at The Gabba by 31 points. Go The Roos! – Game kicks off at 7.10pm

Melbourne Footy Wrap

Wow! What a weekend of footy it was last weekend. With 6 upsets, who would have pick that aye? I was happy to see my team The West Coast Eagles defeat The Saints by 17 points. Woohey thats 3 wins out of 17. Oh well atleast they had a win, wish I’d picked it though. Hope to see them have a win against Melbourne in a couple of weeks at The MCG. Go The Eagles!! Ha! – Anyhow I love me footy. Even if my teams aren’t playing. I still enjoy watching other footy teams play and especially seeing it live at the MCG, The Dome or Skilled Stadium. Gotta love Melbourne! Gotta love Aussie Rules! – Anyhow take care & I Hope your team wins this weekend. All the best from Doug.
