Non-Lions Footy Season (2017)

[Dalions]

Great mark from Daisy Thomas late in that quarter. A flash back to him at his best.

A bit of a flashback to his best.
At his best he would have got up, run around and kicked the goal.
But a good mark all the same.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Bloody Freo. Pathetic.

 

[WhiteLionFeva]

No heart whatsoever in this Suns team. Lynch has been pathetic as well.

He's been Harrised.

 

[RU_]

What i'd give to have Sam Docherty back in the side.

 

[WhiteLionFeva]

We should end up above Freo at year's end.

 

[CarterS]

Melbourne go behind and start going the fist. Not the sign of a mature team. Funnily enough it was Lewis that started it. Carlton turned it around since my last post.

 

[Paul D]

Melbourne think they are a lot harder than what they really are.

 

[WhiteLionFeva]

Gee Horlin-Smith, Stewart, Cowan, Parfitt, Lang, McCarthy, Stanley, Ruggles, Thurlow.... a hell of a lot of C grade foot soldiers in Geelong's team that is meant to be contending. Don't think they have much left to come back into their side either.

To be fair, quite a few around here wanted us to draft Parfitt and Stewart was another that some thought we should target as a trade option. Agree that a couple of the others are clearly B graders at best.

 

[WhiteLionFeva]

Clearly our recruiters didn't tick the "toughness" box when they recruited Polec and Aish.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Suck that Docherty.

 

[lionshine]

Gee the Dockers looks absolutely terrible. Zero structure all their players look lost. Early days but looking like spoon contenders. If they do finish bottom 2 I can't see Fyfe sticking around. They'd have to start from scratch.

Like we were at times under Leppa.
Running around like headless chooks.

 

[Bourrich]

He clearly wasn't right, he was grimacing just walking around.

Maybe he was looking at the scoreboard.

Ross and Bucks now in a close race to be first sacked.

Ross in front by a short half head I think

 

[AFLQLD]

Hard to believe that after this round and Freo lose, there will be 8 teams still without a win, virtually half the comp. Only us and GWS on four points. Everyone else either undefeated or yet to win.

Tenth after two rounds!

Rodney Eade in the running as well do you think?

 

[Dalions]

Maybe even Brad Scott? Although North haven't been too bad. 2 losses though.

Yeah possibly. They should have won today. If the Tigers lose the next few the pressure will be ramped up on Hardwick again quick smart as well.

 

[Dalions]

Eerily similar to our game against Port at the Gabba last year.
Yuck!
I have never walked out on a lions game but i was so close that day.

 

[Dalions]

Certainly a few surprises on the ladder after 2 rounds.

 

[carnthemlions]

Freo really getting value for money out of their off-season recruiting spree.

From the 2 dollar shop.

The Gold Coast game thread is an interesting read. Lots of calls for Ablett to be dropped. It seems the golden child and his wife may have outstayed their welcome down the road.

Something really doesn't seem right down there but in an odd way. I wonder if the team is split into factions and the coach has lost one of those factions.

Stewart would've been a draft pick too but then we traded away all our middling picks. Geelong only drafted him this year.

..and I think those factions are religious and non-religious groups. Apparently GAblett likes to take a group in some sort of religious prayer if they so wish, before each game......I find that very odd, and imagine it would be a bit off-putting for those that don't indulge.

I read about this quite some time ago and if true should not be allowed leading into a game imo.
