Game Day Round 1, 2024 - Fremantle vs. Brisbane Lions

[Grasshopper17]

Still got multiple players attacking the same ball carrier. Leaves one of their guys loose on the outside.

And our ball movement really is questionable. If they want to put so many numbers back, there will be space to move the ball laterally, and back again if required. This going long down the line to an outnumber over and over again is doing my head in

 

[M Malice]

We literally lost a Grand Final because of our last few minutes of each quarter and here we are letting it happen again!

IT IS INFURIATING

 

[scoman]

Clugga and Zorko tore the game apart for 25 minutes, and cant keep it up. Nobody else stepped into the void. Dunkley not doing Dunkley things.

 

[lionshine]

It’s almost as if the players start to sense it is the end of the quarter and freeze up thinking consciously about not conceding instead of continuing to play our brand.

Needs to be addressed.

 

[3KZ is Football]

Answerth's skills haven't improved, I see.

 

[irish]

Come on boys ! Fire up

 

[Sproj]

Just get the feeling we are going to get run down again. I hate feeling negative during games.

 

[The Zork]

I’ve watched this team long enough to just know when the opposition are going to kick a couple of late cheap goals

 

[haystark]

Some players out there just getting paid, no effort whatsoever.

 

[Elixuh]

This change of gamestyle in the last 2 minutes of game does my head in

 

[Viceregal]

I love the way we lower our eyes entering the forward 50 /s

 

[MSB ROYS]

Bomb it long into the forward line into an outnumber is not working.

 

[Grasshopper17]

Dropped marks and missed tackles. Normal service has resumed folks.

 

[Lion_LegacyXL]

None of our boys are sticking tackles

 

[Mooch]

Did the AFL do away with the 15m kick/mark rule this year? Seen some incredibly short kicks paid a mark.

 

[MSB ROYS]

This change of gamestyle in the last 2 minutes of game does my head in

 

[MacMum]

If the boys really want to win this they just might have to play out every minute and not get complacent or comfortable.

 

[Sproj]

Serong is getting a lot of the ball, got to tag him or something.

 

[The Zork]

Lester been excellent so far

 

[dlanod]

It seems like there's a decent set of bones in this Freo team, but Longmire really does them no favours.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Lyons has lifted this quarter

 

[Nathan Barley]

That’s a mark

 

[Bucking Beads]

Gee the umpire in our forward line is playing goalkeeper for Freo!

 

[Sproj]

Wow Starce did somethinf.

 

[Nathan Barley]

We chip it around but we’re not changing the angles. We’re just soaking up the clock before bombing it to a pack
