Game Day Elimination Final, 2024 - Brisbane Lions vs. Carlton

[Nunez]

Jesus Christ we have just dominated a half of football and people are carrying on like we're playing like shit.

I just don't get it. Try and enjoy yourselves.

 

[JasRulz63]

It's somewhat reassuring Payne hasn't been subbed out yet I think? It didn't look good though.

 

[Lace Out]

Ideally we turn this into a snore fest win by 6 goals and get ready to bang in next week

 

[Nathan Barley]

Any word on what they’re saying Payne did?

You’d think if it was ACL he would’ve been subbed but Docherty came back on in round 0 after he did his ACL so who knows

Just chip it around at every opportunity I think would be best

 

[Helicon1]

Great first half.
Hipwood doing my head in. Slow making decisions and turned the ball over so many times.
Zorko was just sublime.
Big O impressive too

 

[Lazza16]

No Payne....they Gayne

 

[luthor]

Hipwood's field kicking has been dreadful

The kick to the corridor to a one on three handed them their first goal when they really didn't look like scoring.

Critical for us.

As soon as he came down I just thought please no.

No way of telling presently . The irony is we didn't need him this week.

As far as the game goes they don't look any where near it as far as I can tell. Fluked a couple late when we took the foot off the gas.

De Koning has helped them but he won't keep going.

Just win the dam game don’t let those turds back in it like last time grind em into dust

He can't be right surely . He's coughed it up nearly every time.

Has limited footy IQ but he's a genuine trier and very tall.

 

[Harris Specter]

Hipwood just looks like our coaches biggest nightmare. Ridiculous decision making and turnovers

 

[Squizz89]

Payne’s off.

 

[Pride of lions]

Fletcher troubles me,turns it over,drops marks and can’t lay a tackle. Must be on his last chance tonight.

 

[JasRulz63]

Someone posted in the forum recently that it wouldn't be surprising if it came out Hipwood was playing with OP. He's surely playing like it.

That kick from Hipwood that led to the Charlie goal usually sails over the goal line (normally between the big and small post).

 

[Big Sauce 21]

Payne went down and opened his knee inside out. Classic medial strain, hopefully no ACL

Hasnt hit the highs of last year unfortunately.

He was taking some important intercept marks right from the first few minutes. That combo of Andrews, Payne, Lester and Starc just killed them in the air from almost the first minute. Payne was a big part in putting the game on our terms

 

[Nunez]

Was going back on. Suspect they opted to put him in cotton wool

Yeah I said that during the week. His running actually looks ok, but as you say has no depth on his kick and he cant bend down below his knees. Still think he’s better than the alternative right now though.

Yeah. At worst he takes the second defender and drags him up the ground.

Just needs to play a role and not try and kick the miracle

The one to over the back Joey, but he coule not kick that far.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Payne subbed. Confirmed ACL?

 

[FLVanLandingham]

great mark, finish this!
