Non Lions Discussion 2024

[KissKiss]

True but it'll open up if we can beat one of them

Depends on the Dogs/Hawks winner though. That could be a big difference

was loving holding the Tom Stewart late out over Port. That’s what it’s all about, the late out smoke and mirrors.

 

[Harris Specter]

Reckon Geelong will surprise here. They are very rarely beaten when they are outside favourites like this

Kenneth doesn't do well in finals

 

[Ceebee]

Port are shell shocked at the moment .

 

[vic_LION]

Cats starting very strong. Was hoping they’d win so we’ll have them at the prelim if we make it, but not so sure now

We match up better against Port, but beating Geelong would be a more satisfying path to the grand final.

And potentially stay down in Melbourne so one less leg of travel? I know I’m massively getting ahead of ourselves, but can’t help it haha

 

[martinson]

Port are doing ok to hang in there. Cats not capitalising.

 

[Nunez]

Port have stage fright.

Absolutely, it'll be played at the MCG. Think that'll be the ultimate test against the Cats in a prelim.

 

[martinson]

Good to see someone else other than us waste opportunities.

This is going to open up for Port sooner or later.

 

[martinson]

Brad Close would be a walk up start in Peaky Blinders.

 

[Tom14]

I’ll be stunned if either team wins the flag.

 

[McIvor]

Honestly wish we were on that side of the draw. Definitely seems easier to beat the lower of this game than either of the Sydney teams

Gutted watching this game still knowing we should be playing in this match at home. Knowing we are better than both and they’ll likely advance further because of where they’ve finished is a bitter pill to swallow.

 

[martinson]

Considering no one seems to rate either of these teams it hasn't been too bad a game.

Cats play a very disciplined brand of footy whatever anyone else thinks of them . Port are more chaotic and play better when they play better. If that makes any sense.

This quarter has been a bit like watching Brisbane. Port had most of the play but screwed it in the forward 50. Then Geelong open them up on the rebound.

 

[Kwickhatch]

I can't believe how quick port are making the cats look

 

[martinson]

Port really struggle to make anything off forward entries.

Dixon is just a liability .

 

[martinson]

You'd love to have Cameron in your team wouldn't you.

 

[Toffee Lion]

Seriously, another prelim versus the Cats is on the cards (Provided we make it).

 

[Lion_LegacyXL]

Cats have opened them up quickly, could easily be a 30+ point half time lead.

Chris Scott is incredible. The team is limited and young and he maximises everything.

Port are playing the corpse of Dixon and big Sav up forward - what frauds.

Lions Prelims since 2004:

2004 - Geelong
2020 - Geelong
2022 - Geelong
2023 - Carlton
(If we make it and Geelong win) 2024 - Geelong

 

[Sherrinator]

Geelong always draft high IQ players who thrive in structured game plans. They are rock solid and have plenty of finals experience - this sort of finals series is perfect for them in that there isn’t really any team dominating except maybe Hawthorn.
