I don't know if real or not, but I think for both games we where kicking into the wind in 4th qtr, and if anything it got a bit stronger.

Kingsley needs to go -playing this negative Shut-up shop style in the last qtr.
happened in 2022 ; playoffs 2023; Port & Bris 2024.
Never learnt. You dont have the players at the back to play this variety.

They do, when supported and in many cases led by Taylor, idun, Callaghan, Cadman, Jones, Buckley, Green etc. But only a chance, some teams like Freo, Hawthorn might be alot better next year. But they might not either

All good mate - feel your pain as well. I thought given how dismal our performance was we weren’t going to give any MVG points!

Finding anything to make us feel better out of the loss is we did smash an all time record for KM covered in a game as a team.
317.8km
Smashed the previous record set by MFC at 311km.
Possibly one of the factors (as well as ump calls and set shot) the reason we fatigued late in the game.

I love our main game style. It is great fun to watch, which is important in building our crowds. I don't want it to change much.
But winning is also important for building our crowds, and to win we need to improve our B plan for those periods in the game when it is necessary to preserve energy. We leak too many goals at the moment when trying to ease off. We just need a way of taking our foot off the pedal that costs less on the scoreboard. I think it's very doable, and I expect the coaches and players are already onto it.

Yeah we did. Lions, and Swans, have that “connection”.

Commiserations on your finals exit, but you're really reaching with this.

Fitzroy got undermined by the then VFL over and over again and ultimately destroyed and wound up to try and improve their national story. The AFL doesn't consider the Lions a continuation of Fitzroy (see their records and any adherence to the Fitzroy-Brisbane merger rules about Victorian games). This one's a real stretch.
Any news from our camp seems to have dried up given we are out, but word is that Cogs' injury is pretty horrific - 5 separate facial fractures.
Wishing the big guy all the best and a speedy recovery

3 month recovery. Poor bugger.
