Review Preliminary Final, 2024 - Geelong vs. Brisbane Lions

[3KZ is Football]

3KZ was right about Lester

RYAN LESTER JUST PLAYED THE GREATEST GAME OF HIS CAREER ON THE MOST MASSIVE OF STAGES. COMETH THE HOUR, COMETH THE MAN! THE FOOTY GODS APPROVE!

Massive congratulations to Cam Rayner for willing himself back into the game. His second half was sensational! The same goes for Ah Chee!

Importantly, and I want to say this out loud, the biggest shout out must go to Chris Fagan. In one of the most extraordinary things I have seen in over 50 years of closely following football, the team is repaying his faith in them and they are returning his confidence in them with all the skill and love they can muster! It is a rare thing we are witnessing. I might have been right about Lester, but I was wrong about Fagan. He has grown with this extraordinary group of players.

He deserves this success

Had to hear all week from Geelong supporters how this was their ideal path to a grand final.

Now the bathwater drinkers are posting that we will be uncompetitive next week. Lmao.

Enjoy the trip down the Princess highway ya pack of flogs. Thoroughly enjoyed giving it to the Geelong bay next to me.

The fact you are in your 2nd GF in a row and it is a Sydney vs Brissie Grand Final really makes any commentary about VFL or Vicbias ridiculous…..get the chip off your shoulder, you’re in another f*cking granny! Good luck next week!

How sweet it is...

Can we get around the FROG. The dude was doing everything, he was intercept marking, smothering cameron, linking in attack. The best performance of this career.

And I'm not forgetting Mr Clutch. Cal Ah Cheeeeeeeeeeee

Get in!!!!!!

 

[The Substitute]

Lester definitely best on ground. The move to put him on Cameron not only shut Jeremy out of the game, but turned Geelong forward forays into Lion attacks. Massive game from him.

Last game we won with less inside 50s?

Round 22 v Adelaide last year I reckon.

 

[Marmozet]

Outstanding effort to have clawed your way all the way back to the Grand Final after where you came from earlier in the year!

Just goes to show how long the season is and that it's not over until it's over. The Lions 2024 team will inspire many teams in the future that start off slowly!

LESTER SHOWED THE WAY. REBOUND, SPEED AND COURAGE!

HE IS THE BACKLINE GENERAL!

Anyone able to paste the Herald Sun player ratings? I refuse to give Murdoch a cent.

Well done lions, Must feel good to wipe the arrogance right out of those cat fans after their cockyness all week

What do you think Nathan Barley - got a few kind words for Lester?

 

[Bucking Beads]

What a win!!! Epic.

In a car driving back to my brothers place. I can’t believe it I just am in awe. A prelim for the ages

 

[lionshine]

Lester went into god mode

 

[Lockie]

Wow that was one of the best games of footy I have been too! Sitting in bay 12 down the front with lions supporters and the cats bay next to us going the stand up and pointing to us. Then watching them leave in the last minute. Best atmosphere at the end of the game - so many Lions supporters going nuts and then on the way to the station. The donuts I had on the way out were the sweetest I’ve tasted. Oh what a week it’s going to be. Congrats to Lester, Rayner and Kai.

 

[lionshine]

So happy for Ah Chee. He’s a gun

You should have some kind words for Rayner. He stood up tonight

Anyone know where to watch the Grand Final in Singapore?

Couple of years ago watched finals in a sports bar next to Yotel Hotel in Orchard Road.

 

[JasRulz63]

Thought Lester and Wilmot were huge across half back. They cleaned up loose balls, weren't often beaten (except in Q2) and had a ton of intercept possessions.

How good was the Payne chase down of Duncan though.

Yes let’s go

 

[Hollow Knight]

This time last week we were down 44 points v GWS.
