AFL 2017 - R12 - Brisbane Lions v Fremantle 16:35 AEST, GABBA

[Damon_3388]

Far and away the best game Lewis Taylor has ever played. Completely random, against type, out of the box performance from him. 4 goals, 4 goal assists, 5 inside 50s and 12 total score involvements from just 20 disposals.

 

[Giant Pete]

Well done Brisbane. Will be a force in a couple of years.
Freo... they're in all sorts. That was disgraceful. Troll journos will be licking their lips getting ready for the Rossy presser.

 

[The Joker]

Is there still issues with his leg or his he down of confidence and form?

I think he has put on to much muscle. His personal program he was on last season has him to big. He doesn't move around like he used to, he doesnt float into marking contests and he moves like a kpp with ball in hand!

Fyfe is not the guy that suffers from confidence issues, it is certainly form and I honestly believe its because of the aforementioned weight gain!

 

[Damon_3388]

No Sandilands No freo ........

Probably true, to be honest. His tap work and work around the stoppages makes life a lot easier for the midfield around him. No wonder his periods of absence coincide with downturns in the Dockers' fortunes.

 

[The Joker]

Great win Brisbane.

EABD Freo supporters that gloated about bradburying a top 8 spot, getting shown up for the pretenders you are now.

Pretenders, no campaigners has ever claimed to be the top 8 club that Freo has been in lately, StKilda and their fans however...

 

[The Joker]

Some big name players in here having a real crack at Freo, I'm blushing...

Yet for the past 10 years people say he is nothing but a big ****er that wins a few taps and sends most of them to the opposition team...

To be fair that has been an ongoing criticism of him in the media as well.

Well a lot of people are idiots.

To be fair that has been an ongoing criticism of him in the media as well.

This is the same media that thinks good ruckwork is getting a couple of possessions on the wing, a la Sam Jacobs. I don't think they're any more knowledgeable than anyone else.

Well I'm 100% wrong then, my bad...

I'm not agreeing with their views I'm just saying that it's not just BF posters. It would be interesting to see what his tap to opposition stats would be. I think he is very important to the dockers but I think it's a forward they are missing not a ruckman

 

[Xtreme]

Fyfe to Brisbane in 2018 ?

 

[blueiris]

Fyfe to Brisbane in 2018 ?

No thanks Lions need players that play with heart not once were warriors players that don't give a S**T

 

[BPikkers]

Result was no surprise. The fact is Freo is really a bottom 3 side. Lucky to string some wins together early but % says it all.

Freo should never have been included in our comp.
Ugly jumper....
WAFL team at best............

Freo are a WAFL reserves team at best..........................

If not for the Fitzroy connection Brisbane would have been thrown out the comp years ago...

Freo are a WAFL reserves team at best..........................

I said big names, clearly i wasn't talking about you!

 

[roscreasl98]

I said big names, clearly i wasn't talking about you!

Cry.Cry. Cry. Cry me a river....

 

[stax on the mull]

Positive: If Brisbane can go and ask for another compo pick at this years draft, then Freo should get a couple too.

 

[The Joker]

Cry.Cry. Cry. Cry me a river....

You're a shit drunk...

 

[roscreasl98]

You're a shit drunk...

Freo are rubbish.............

 

[roscreasl98]

Positive: If Brisbane can go and ask for another compo pick at this years draft, then Freo should get a couple too.

Brisbane have a Fitzroy link, so we belong.
Freo need to get back to the WAFL..........

 

[Jeeves]

Another blissful week in the west

Do you mean none of us have to listen to anymore gloating from insufferable Hawks fans? Thank **** for that.

Yeah...and bring back the diamond - the centre square is a rubbish idea.

 

[Off The Couch]

Like we hear anything in the west about any team other than the eagles and of course the dockers (but only when they're losing)

It's been 3 weeks of sheer bliss and the headlines - divine and we even have Jacko now calling for Sam to retire and the icing Priddis being given another year.

Loving it
