Game Day Round 12, 2016 - Brisbane Lions vs Fremantle

[Milk Steak]

We are letting this slip too easy,confidence dropping with every goal to Freo

go home Lions, your drunk

 

[LionKing]

Andrews and McStay both very impressive.
Does Hanley still look all over the shop to anyone else?

Yep - he is definitely not firing on all cylinders.

 

[Milux]

Went away from using the corridor and that's what happens.

 

[kylegee28]

Now this is more like the Brisbane that I know and love

 

[a mayes ing]

Merret is such a liability, Mayes looks okay but saw him on one occasions where he just looked at a Freo guy getting the ball and took an age before he decided it was hit turn to go, So reactive he is.

Last 8 mins we can forget. We need to get back to running. Not overly disappointed as the boys are obviously here to play. We just need them to play well! Go Lions!

Keays needs to be dropped. I am sick of him missing easy goals.

No way. He is getting in position to have shots on goal and provides good forward pressure

Even in the patches where we're moving the ball well and confidence is up, Hanley looks like a deer in the headlights and is stabbing at all his kicks. Just so hesitant now

 

[iBeng]

Hmm, about what I expected. Good start, went to sleep.

 

[Sherrinator]

Seeing Andrews with the ball keen for a 30m kick up field is depressing. So many players who show up for 5 minutes a quarter and will not provide a lead.

Merrett needed to kill that

We're clearly just going to gift Merrett games so he reaches 200 because he doesn't (a) help our club move forward and (b) deserve to be picked based on his output.

Lol, thought this would come in the second quarter. Guess we got our weekly serve of the Brisbane Lions a little earlier.

 

[lions27]

All square, guess I'll take that. Freo turning the screws though.
Merrett stinking it up again, can't wait until Skinner is ready

Keays needs to be dropped. I am sick of him missing easy goals.

The rest of him's been good. Wouldn't mind him moving up the ground a bit, then maybe regain some confidence with a running midfielder's goal.

Yep. He's doing everything else right. Technique should be simple to improve. Coming off a low base..

 

[Milk Steak]

Don't get the Keays stuff. He's missing set shots,but he's been really solid since debuting,no way I'd be dropping him.

Jansen needs to settle down a bit before disposing of the football,getting a bit of rush of blood and butchering it.

 

[BuntonRules]

How the F@@@ can a player of Keays potential come through the system with such a s@@@ set shot technique - and not have it coached out of him. WTF do these academies do? 2 goal turn around EVERY WEEK.

I think it has more to do with Clarke pulling the pin and Hipwood being built like a bamboo stick.

 

[LionKing]

Appeared to me like our work rate dropped off in the last 15 minutes and we reverted back to kick and hope football

 

[Ceebee]

No confidence.
Drop their heads too quick when the opposition get on a roll.
I am going outside to talk to my chooks.

Academies kick off tees at crossbarred uprights.

 

[kylegee28]

Even though it went straight to the opposition, I loved Jansen's monster handpass. Haven't seen a Lions player do that for a long time

 

[lions27]

Really liking Bastis game, using the ball really well

 

[Milux]

Rich to schache on the tit is mouth watering.
