Game Day Rd 17, 2014 - Brisbane Lions vs West Coast

[James North]

Need to get more leads from the forward 50 rather than dropping it on guys heads ... kicking to advantage or better leads needed.

 

[patfullfankezz]

Our only goal was kicked by our best defender.

I like Lester's intent and he's smart. Just needs to work on the kicking.

Close looking better each week.

 

[Kickit2brown]

Love Close attack on the footy then.

 

[MacMum]

Hit the bloody post!!

 

[PTizzle]

Bread and butter for Ash! good stuff.

 

[jackess]

Looking much better this quarter. Not turning the footy over as easily.

 

[J_Marsh83]

Lucky one from McGrath but we'll take it!!

 

[Dylan12]

That's an excellent way to describe how Raines is going in the reserves.

And I'm sure Teflon Merrett would be on fire kicking bags if he was playing in the reserves too.

In spite of his goalkicking, Close is our best chance up forward this game. Sauce should be used as a decoy with MacKenzie all over him.

GO ASH!!!

 

[MacMum]

Yay Ash!!

I'm sure there'll be plenty of excuses as always though.

I don't care how many knocks there are against Lisle, he would have to be better than Merrett. Then Merrett could play at full back, where his leap and ability to spoil could actually contribute something to the team.

 

[Nunez]

I love Closeses attack on the footy

 

[PTizzle]

Good work Close - looking far better so far.

 

[jackess]

West Coast tanking? Not much effort.

 

[MacMum]

Put Merrett down back again....and Joel up forward. Can't do any worse. (that doesn't sound good English, but you get my drift)

 

[Nunez]

I don't mind him taking that at all

 

[Kickit2brown]

Close really solid in the last 20 minutes. Just needs to kick a bit straighter.

 

[3KZ is Football]

Close on the other hand looks like a super prospect.

 

[jackess]

Closes technique doesn't look good for kicking long goals. Not enough momentum through the footy.

 

[iBeng]

Right, who was it that said Close was a deadeye for goal?

Good to see him getting chances though.

 

[PTizzle]

As soon as they break through we look dead in the water, frustrating.

 

[scoman]

bloody rebound goals!!

 

[Nunez]

Piss weak goal for them.

 

[LionKing]

Need to change your goal kicking routine Close - not working for ya buddy
