Coach Lions - Has the Fagan era already peaked?

[scoman]

It would take some effort to lose at home tonight against a crippled Carlton.

I think our boys could manage that. It's been that kind of year.

 

[NetworkNerd]

I know Fagan can't kick the goals for his team..
But what the hell is going on up there?

Think this is the last final Brisbane play in for a while

Reckon your boys kicked 10-2 from that point... At least one more final!

I should declare our window closed more often

 

[Always Ballin]

Ready. Set. Runout!

Incredible comeback. Thought they were gone and Fagan was exposed

 

[Borussia Teeth]

Aged like milk

Like your shitposts.

No

Can confirm the Fagan era hasn't peaked just yet

 

[brutus76]

Done better than King Kenny who has been in the gig for 12 freaking seasons

 

[CuttlefishMcfly]

The Fagan era will peak next week

3 ACLs to guys in our first 22/3 but still into the GF takes some pretty good coaching.

 

[Kram]

Just one more win to prove me wrong.

 

[LionsOrDieTrion]

I’m currently peaking myself

 

[Kram]

Don't like Brisbane but full credit that was a massively entertaining style of football to watch tonight and another win against the odds.

Rather good academy helps too.

 

[Johnny Bananas]

Rather good academy helps too.

We haven't had many from the academy really. Andrews as a late pick, Payne as a late pick, Coleman as a third rounder (and has done his ACL), it's just Hipwood who is a first round pick.

Levi Ashcroft looks an absolute jet.

Levi Ashcroft looks an absolute jet.

You would think he walks straight into the team but I have no idea who comes out for him

He does. But he's not academy, he's F/S.

Bailey if he doesn't learn to stop being selfish without getting good results.

Funny how some Vics are going to run with this narrative now that it's a Sydney v Brisbane GF. There was only three academy graduates that played in Brisbane's prelim winning team tonight, so the stats don't really back up what you're trying to argue. The truth of the matter is that Brisbane have done a fantastic job with trading, drafting and free agency to build this team and the academy influence has been pretty minimal. Here's the breakdown:

11 - Open draftees
5 - Trade ins
3 - Academy draftees
2 - F/S draftees
1 - Free agent

Time to give some massive credit to Brisbane.

1-5 in finals to 2021 and labelled horrendous chokers, they’re now 7-2 in their last 9 finals (which includes a 4 pt loss last year).

Hope they go all the way next week.
