Wow. One of the games of the year. Spewing for GWS. Braeden Campbell I tells ya. We should chase hard.

What a game changing cameo. I'm on board your train

They’ve been playing him out of position for 4 years. He’s a half forward/ mid. Been wasted at half back, had all the tools to be a genuine star

Or not!

Was a good game but lets not get carried away.

Are you serious? Literally the most glaring thing about that game was Mass constantly being shoved around/giving Saints forwards space that he was actively involved in 4 of their goals. The amount of stretching cultists are doing in order to push a narrative is unbelievable, to the point of gaslighting about what actually happened lmao.

He was a defensive wet leaf back then and still is. The rest of the Hawks team helping to gloss over it due to clicking against average teams like the Dogs hasn't changed that.

His kicking however was good, and his decision making on where to kick it (and not just how to) has improved. The rest of the Hawks team being more in tune in where to be has helped that. However there needs to be more consistent evidence of him being defensively minded and harder in a contest against elite teams before calling him elite. When he arrived at the Hawks there were crickets and when they were losing to good teams earlier in the year there were crickets. Proper analysis is based on facts and perspective not on media hype.

The problem here is that the alternatives are Gresham, Guelfi, Menzie, Heppell and Martin who are or who have served up trash for most of the year (and who will continue to do it next year).

So we can nitpick Mas, and it might even make sense if we got functional contributions from any of the players in the roles that he could be playing/had been playing.

This is like Milanisti pretending that it's 2006 when talking about 'Milan standard' players in the midst of missing the champions league for 10 years.

GWS played exactly how we play

Belted them in the first half, didn't capitalise on it and then lost.

Classic us

 

[Mercurial89]

This is one reason why I do not bother following other sides in the finals. Bad enough having us **** up. No need to be disappointed again

I think in finals you follow the game, everyone was rewarded with that final. Best two teams in it for mine.

100%
He's our Zach understudy. Could be Merrett to hb, Martin wing/forward, Campbell mid. Could even rotate Merrett and Campbell.

Yep that standard was a lot higher than what we’ve seen from the other 4 teams.

Can’t imagine us executing disposal close in under pressure like these two teams did

more the fact we own teams, dont score. let let teams back into games.

Exactly what GWS did.

 

[MiguelM]

Papley was huge and one of their MVPs along with Heeney, Warner.

Doesn't change the fact he has a very punchable head though.

 

[bommer16]

Oh Lions, Brisbane Lions you better kick the winning score…

Less Bunga bunga as well

 

[bommer16]

What a get is Kai for Brisbane. Wowee
Enjoyable to watch.

 

[ghostdog]

This is going to be a rout.

 

[windyhill]

This is glorious.

 

[bommer16]

Didn’t Carl kick the first 5 last year in the prelim??

 

[mike14]

Imagine if Brisbane could ever properly take their chances in front of goal...

 

[bommer16]

A berry good mark

 

[rumply]

 

[bommer16]

Meh. But I like the start

 

[JayJ20]

Not even a point that quarter. So delicious.

That's why scraping the 8 is useless.
