Should have won, really
Great effort from the boys today! Zorko was fantastic and DBeams
and Bundy showed their worth. I thought Hanley and Clarke ayes really well in their milestone games as well

Wouldn't go that far but we had our chances.

We just don't know how to win, so frustrating...Sometimes I feel we aren't a bottom four side and then proceed to miss goals from 25 meters out...
Good effort but I want some wins.
Beams showing why he is potential AA + top 10 mids in the competition.

Good effort. Still not sure if Paparone will make it, constant bad decisions and his disposal lets him down. Robinson tries hard but needs a week in twos. Zorkos best game for the year and bundy went missing in the first half but his third quarter was immense. Rocky slotted in well, in my votes.

Really felt that Leuey should have dominated when Pyke went off but lost the battle with Tippet.

Honestly not THAT upset with the loss. This is a team that should have done us in by 100+ points. But we made them work for it and what else could we do? Throw in a decent KPF for us and at least 50% of our forward entries would have ended up goals.
It looks to me as though we are doing the Mayes experiment to Aish this season: Playing him down back. Its not working for me, hes to much of a liability with his disposal. Also had to cringe a few times when Robbo kicked over his targets head or got run down, but its all experience for them.

CouLd have won this and it's great to see some of the old heads out there. Will get better in the next 3 weeks provided no injuries. Touchwood

Papparone is 20 and has played, what 30 games? He made a few mistakes against a more than likely top 4 side. Was pretty good today actually imo. Will be immense for us in the future and will provide a very hard matchup.
Robinson was very good for us, giving us run late in the game. He tries hard, good. Not sure why he needs a week in the twos. One of the best endurance runners in our team.

Wasn't a good game for Leuey. Would have been tough backing up after last week though.

Got a selfie with Stef so it's not a total loss.
Silly errors and poor kicking killed us, guys like Robbo really need to work on their awareness.

Our midfield seems to operate better with Luey as ruck
I'm not too disappointed. Didn't expect them to win, so the next best was to want a good effort. We got that, so not unhappy.
..it will come in time.
I just wish they would practice more on their goal kicking. It really bugs me how inaccurate we are.

2nd quarter was poor but the overall night we kept up our effort and as theme of the past 2 weeks, fell away in the last.
Beams didn't slow down with Rocky & Hanley in there, which was good to see.
Rocky with 11 tackles is just huge and a massive night from the Zorks!
Merrett really kept the margin close by himself in the last quarter.
Not enough in my opinion from guys like Adcock, Bewick, McStay & Taylor tonight.
Overall, our boys put up another fight but fell short and I believe against a poorer opposition - we might get the chocolates!
Go Lions!

Mcstay for me either needs a shift to the backline or some time in the twos to regain form. I watched him closely tonight and Jordan Bourke looks more natural than him. I think he'll be a star but he needs to learn how to work into the game. Imo his worst game to date

A few missed opportunities and Buddy Franklin the only difference in the end. Can't complain. Go ahead if you want to, but really...
Our midfield isn't bad at all when we get everyone out there either.
I'm pretty confident that he'll make it, personally. He's been our most improved player this year by far.

Yeah nah. Paparone made a couple of mistakes, but he got a fair amount of the ball after struggling with forward tags over the last couple of weeks.

Martin hasn't really had a decent midfield around him this year.
Great pressure and the passion is getting there - the boys certainly had more endeavour than the Swans.
How must Buddy have felt when the 18 year old HA out thought him a couple of times. Well done Harris good decision maker.
Best game from Redden for a while - consistent ball gatherers.
Other good news Freeman and West played in the magus.
Stef back next week - maybe Robinson - getting a place might become a lot more difficult.
Keep up the good work Lions - the rewards will come.
