AFLW 2024 - Round 6 - Chat, game threads, injury lists, team lineups and more.
Stats are Great! Sometimes.The position where he kicked 21 goals in the first 11 games this year adding to the 41 last year? Yeah I’m sure they really fear his lack of talent putting him back there.
Thank goodness the pros are making the decisions here.
Let's hope he starts to play like it.Scott asked about this in the presser. Being sub was mainly to ease him back in. Pointedly said no one should interpret it as him not being in our best forward line, “he is”.
If you look through the VFL thread, several of us have been asking for Mannagh to be given a chance.I’ve been banging the table of playing Mannagh for WEEKS too.
He was tearing it up at VFL level, we needed guys who could come in and pressure the opposition players.
It was a staple of our 2022 side like the Richmond dynasty before them, pressure pressure PRESSURE the ball carrier and force them into turnovers.
I'm calling bullshit on that.Scott asked about this in the presser. Being sub was mainly to ease him back in. Pointedly said no one should interpret it as him not being in our best forward line, “he is”.
If you want to feel old Kai Lohmann selected "Oops I did it again" by Britney Spears, as his mother really liked Britney when she was his ageI wouldn't be surprised if the songs were selected by the players or maybe their teammates as a stitch up
I thought that the intro song from when the team is getting ready to make their approach from the tunnel before running through the banner was used at times also
But if you want "interesting" goal song choices, have a look at the ones chosen by the Lions players:
- Daniher, Let It Go
- McCarthy, American Pie
- Charlie Cameron, Take Me Home, Country Road
- Answerth, 3AM
- McInerney, Not Pretty Enough
Full list here https://www.lions.com.au/news/1492758/just-dropped
I don't really pay much attention to the songs being played after a goal, unless it's from one of the Irish lads, but if it's a bit of interaction with the players then go for it
He was obviously very hungry for an AFL game, and it showed.Best I've seen from him by a mile. But a different role also.
Funnily enough I don't mind the 'Count Dracula' reference....although another Hawk poster called him a twerp too.Its rather strange isnt it, Brad is such a quiet go about your job kind of bloke, doesnt scream prick in any which way……i guess he did kick 4 on them and is a Premiership player….yep what a prick
I've got to say the Lions songs really work with the crowd up here. Appreciate it more at "neutral" games tbh. But a full stadium singing Country Roads well after the next centre bounce after a Cameron goal is a pretty cool.I wouldn't be surprised if the songs were selected by the players or maybe their teammates as a stitch up

Followed by three games in which he kicked none. Injuries may well have played a part but, like everyone, he should be selected on current form.The position where he kicked 21 goals in the first 11 games this year adding to the 41 last year? Yeah I’m sure they really fear his lack of talent putting him back there.

Scott hinted at this in the press conference. Said that he it was a bit of coincidence that his call-up came after the bag of goals in the VFL. Really they have been training players to be able to play the AFL role that they want them to play - and for Mannagh that is that pressure high half forward.I have watched some of the vfl, but not as close as some. So I have a question: has mannagh’s defensive game always been this good at vfl level or has it developed?
Pure_Ownage could this be the reason he was made to stay in the magoos so long? Ie. you won’t get a game until you become a 2-way player?
Not hearing Country Roads this year at the Gabba was a season highlight for me.I've got to say the Lions songs really work with the crowd up here. Appreciate it more at "neutral" games tbh. But a full stadium singing Country Roads well after the next centre bounce after a Cameron goal is a pretty cool.
What was the jazzy trumpet tune for Neale's goal?
Wasn’t he demoted from Collingwood side for lack 0f defensive effort? Memory is a bit hazy.Stats are Great! Sometimes.
The ZERO goals in the last 4 games or 3 goals in his the last 6 games.
Can paint a different picture.
Add 2 subs (1 In & 1 Out)
Changes that picture again.
My hearing is. That. Rocket had been placed and lit.
We shall see if it has said effect.
Laziness, running patterns, no second efforts and his inability to influence games without the ball were all highlighted.
Let's see how this all plays out.
FWIW. Within the 50 arc of Rohan/Cameron/Neale can't have a OH in there.
Fingers crossed we see an Ollie version similar to our Rising Star Ollie.
The last couple of weeks he has moved into the “miers role” - which is not just high half forward but also be the extra MF at the stoppage around the ground. That means you are meant to be IN the contest as opposed to just outside (like they want Close and other HHF and the wingers).I have watched some of the vfl, but not as close as some. So I have a question: has mannagh’s defensive game always been this good at vfl level or has it developed?

Disagree. It’s a professional sporting event. Not a nightclub.I've got to say the Lions songs really work with the crowd up here. Appreciate it more at "neutral" games tbh. But a full stadium singing Country Roads well after the next centre bounce after a Cameron goal is a pretty cool.
Yep it's a team sport one song reserved for the winners post match the Club song,do away with the other crap but I'm afraid it's most likely to late.Disagree. It’s a professional sporting event. Not a nightclub.
The pros that had him sub even though Hawkins is out?The position where he kicked 21 goals in the first 11 games this year adding to the 41 last year? Yeah I’m sure they really fear his lack of talent putting him back there.
Thank goodness the pros are making the decisions here.
Yet it doesn’t change the picture at all. Scott wants him straight back in. Perhaps ask yourself why?Stats are Great! Sometimes.

He doesn’t play Hawkins’ role.The pros that had him sub even though Hawkins is out?
1.6 goals a game aint great if thats all you do. His defensive pressure on the ground, and more importanly, in the air, is attrocious. Rohan kills o. Henry in both aspects of the game.
When rohan plays our other talls look better because they actually have to defend rohan.
To my eye it wasn't, he was an overly offensively minded player. He was playing really deep forward for most of this year, last few weeks he started player more as a high half forward which was closer to what he did last year. Last week he was good at that secondary pressure where there was a scramble. And what he showed last night was a few levels higher than anyone could have seen.
