wtf was that 50 for. browny wrestling with o'brien-whats the big deal. Happy with our efforts except for kicking into forward line-atrocious.
 
My god we miss Merrett

Staker is dreadful...he must cos us at least 1-2 goals/game

berger needs to try harder......the number of times he goes up for a contest with one arm up...

intensity a bit better than last week

Browny is def hampered by groin injury

rich is on fire

wish we had a didak
 
I have not watched one game this year where the umpiring blatantly favours Collingwood, not in terms of number of frees but the amount of frees contributing to goals, the way O'Brien is disrespecting Browny is disappointing

The lions have matched the Magpies, but their finishing just hasn't been up to scatch
 
How about chucking Mitch in the forward line?

His energy in the midfield has been vital. I'd keep him where he is for the time being.

It's not often I say this, but I was not impressed with Brown's brain snap towards the end of the quarter. Regardless of whether or not you agree with the penalty, we had gone 90% of the 2nd Qtr and conceded only 1 goal - and that last one hurt in what has turned into a tight contest.

Other than that, I have been reasonably happy. We've just been very sloppy going forward and we struggle to penetrate the half-forward line. On the positive sides, we seem a lot more quicker and a lot more aggressive and most mistakes are at least positive ones.

But I certainly don't like being this close at half time and not winning so I hope the players don't rest on their laurels and slack off. At the start of the season, our second halves were our best, so let's hope we regain that part of our game.

From the game, it does look like we're playing a lot better than we did against the cats. We look pretty good when we use the corridor.:thumbsu:

rich needs to lift again, went a bit quiet in te second, and fev needs to get his hands in the ball! Presty is wearing him well, and he had to push to the wing to find the ball.

Wow Toddy. The amount of endeavour and class shown by this guy, you'd think he's in his fifth season. Keep chasing toddy, that tackle on haxwell was gold. :thumbsu:

We are very much in it and I thought the result would be buried by now. We beat them in the first half both times last year and got blown away in the second... A bit of role reversal would be nice!

Go lions!
 
Rockliff, Banfield and Rich....playing very well, we really have gems in them

polks is badly down on form....needs to lift

11 touches..7 marks..2 goals

Aint bad?
 
rich's first quarter was gold.. set the tempo of the game well

some of his friends followed... need more all around group effort for us to snatch this one..


banfield is a humble aka... if he learns aka's footskills... i'd take banners over cyril any day!

LIONS WILL WIN
 
It's an open game but 19 tackles in a half is pretty poor. Also since when has brisbane ever taken 82 marks in a half. Interesting that Vossy has seemed to changed the game plan. Also putting Collier in the Mills/Copeland role takes me back.
