Did you guys see the contrast between our fwd structure and Brisbanes?

 

[Shane_Mag]

If Brisbane win the GF next week it will be a great story and an epic finals campaign. If only our club had the same drive and desperation.

 

[Del165198]

Brisbane 44 points down last week never gave in, we are 20 points down at half time against Geelong and literally gave up.

Connor "incredibly proud"
What the **** is wrong with our club lol

 

[b0ydman Jr]

On paper Brisbane probably have the best list, they were flag favourites before the season started.

ashcroft & ah chee are guns

 

[philreich]

Glorious result!!!

 

[Portology]

Also makes a myth of any excuse that we were banged up for last night’s prelim. Brisbane showed guts, tenacity and self-belief. Came back from almost an identical HT margin at the MCG to that which we faced at AO. We capitulated in front of our fans. They rose up and saluted in enemy territory, not once but twice in consecutive weeks. After watching this, there are no possible excuses for Port Adelaide.

Well, even before watching this.

tl; dr we are literally coached to fail at finals

 

[Scodges]

Full of admiration for Brisbane. Three very good finals wins. Compare their last three weeks to ours. They had a shitload of injuries all year and still have produced this.

And lost their ruckman in the first.

This was my dream scenario especially with the all the advantages and bias towards the Vic teams

 

[PeacefulWarrior]

lol chalk and cheese vs port

Come back for another dose of mediocrity next year folks!

 

[Hammer#8]

Notice how Brisbane play for themselves and the hunger to win, not to protect their grandfather aged coach.

Ah Chee was a pick 7 traded from Gold Coast for a future second and a future 4th. That’s the sort of trade you need to get to build a good list.

 

[all seeing eye]

Considering their age and gaps in quality the Cats system still almost prevailed.

 

[JHF1870]

Footy doesnt need another Swans premiership.

The way their mids swarmed to outnumber as well, worked together and used the ball. So much better than ours.

 

[tribey]

Two legitimate footy clubs resurrecting the integrity of the PFs which we pissed away last night.

We just don’t have the list.

As Ryan Lester, Noah Answerth and Darcy Wilmot play out of their skins to support the blue chip midfield.

Crazy.

 

[PAFC66]

Coming back to Victoria and no Vic teams are in it is fantastic.

What's the bet wildcard weekend now comes in

 

[theouthouse]

The thing that passes me off is Port show glimpses of playing the style of game Brisbane were playing throughout the year, gut running through the midfield and defensive presdure, but reverted to hinkleyball when push came to shove.

 

[PAFC66]

Lions deserved to be in the top , we deserve jack shit.

That comparison can ****off now

Ah Chee and Lohmann have had great finals.

Hes an ok player

lol as if it matters. Sydney winning one doesn't even matter. It's like a null result.

 

[JimmyBC]

Shows some ticker to get to another GF a year after losing one.

 

[Portmagpies36]

Their future midfield will destroy ours for years to come, not to mention their forward line.

Says everything about our culture as a football club

 

[240volt]

Brisbane got pretty banged up today while Sydney had a walk in the park.
Sydney should start favorites and win.

cracking game
