Game Day Qualifying Final, 2023 - Brisbane Lions vs. Port Adelaide

[MacMum]

Hope we keep the foot down and the goals keep coming

 

[Chobo]

Jeezuz we’re hot s**t

Or shit hot I should say

 

[MacMum]

dont know what the doctors gave mccluggage, but he has been the best midfielder on the park since coming back on to the ground

..ssh!

 

[Sproj]

need the first goal or two. Always nervous going the last quarter with our track record.

Nah don't worry, that Melbourne game has made us, we've learned how to close it out.

 

[martinson]

Are they down to 2 on the bench ?

If so they're totally done.

 

[Sproj]

Yep. We're set for an extended time in the sun.

We won't win a flag every year but the next decade will be a lot of fun.

We will need to find another key forward as Daniher probably has 3-4 years left but yep, things look bright.

 

[p4p1]

Kenny had a plan to bring Boak on after half time and start to outrun us.

Great plan on paper.

It went pear shaped in the most unfathomable way.

That’s the risk you take but I also think that thinking about worst case scenario, when it generally doesn’t happen is a mistake.
Having said that, depending on who your subs are probably dictates how you use that sub.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Butters and Rozee plenty of it but going at 50 and 62% efficiency. Wines and Drew both around 50% and JHF only 9 touches

 

[50Lions]

Just a vote edit Keidean Coleman for Barisbane Lions Best and fairest

 

[Leuy LongerCombo]

Jaspa has had some great moments tonight, exciting to have him on the list

 

[p4p1]

Are they down to 2 on the bench ?

If so they're totally done.

Even if they’re not it’s going to be hard. Lyons could potentially make their one avenue, clearances, a lot more difficult when he is subbed on. Yes he hurts us on run but late in the game when the oppo is going to rely on clearances his inside work outweighs is liabilities IMO.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Hopefully Linc is better for the run

Textbook sling tackle

 

[Nathan Barley]

Hodgey trying hard to be anti-Lions?

Has made some dumb calls tonight

 

[Sproj]

Well his head almost came clean off but finally the umps see one.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Horrible kick Linc

Could be a candidate for the sub

 

[Jivlain]

Are they down to 2 on the bench ?

If so they're totally done.

Yeah they made a purely tactical sub and then had two injuries in the next 90s

 

[Sproj]

Wow the umps are finally looking both ways.

 

[Nathan Barley]

That's a clear down the field free but because it's Zorko....

 

[FLVanLandingham]

Can't be too confident. We have a lead but gotta get the win first, and also come into the next match with good momentum

come on lions!

 

[MacMum]

All of a sudden I've gotten really nervous....I need a few more goals to settle down

 

[haystark]

Of course they start paying frees when we’re 38pts up…

 

[Nathan Barley]

You can't make them stand and then let them walk 5m off the line

 

[BrownYouGun]

Of course they start paying frees when we’re 38pts up…

Standard to even up the count so they don't get investigated

 

[Sproj]

One more and this will be done, if it isn't already.

 

[FLVanLandingham]

GOOD CHASE HIPPY!
