Game Day Round 15, 2022 - Melbourne vs. Brisbane Lions

[scoman]

Why isnt Rayner getting a run on the ball? Robertson?

 

[Hollow Knight]

Payne has been pretty good tbh.

 

[Nathan Barley]

So we refuse to move the ball quickly or kick it to a contest? Is this plan B?

 

[Scubaveg]

I hope they win by 100

We're only 5 goals down and couldn't possibly cough it up any worse.

Come on guys. Pull your finger out.

 

[JoeDanihersMoustache]

How was Fritsch not in protected area

 

[SizeMatters]

Can we still get a top 6 pick?

 

[Nathan Barley]

Any chance if a spoil Oscar?

 

[Nathan Barley]

How is that a mark?

 

[FLVanLandingham]

golly I am feeling for Tom Berry, he's not the man taking the down the wing mark especially with the size of his opponent,

 

[dlanod]

Joe's given up. Not even fighting through contact.

 

[lioninthesand]

At the ground, this is APPALLING.

 

[PTizzle]

Margin is very doable in theory but there's just no signs of life out there, Dees are smothering us bloody well.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Given up unfortunately

Book your September holidays. We won’t be winning any finals again this year

 

[Gadzorks]

They are getting set with murder. This isn't fair

 

[bato]

So is Harro out for the game with that shoulder?

 

[Squizz89]

It’s actually quite demoralising.

 

[Fagenslions36]

This is Spinless . Can’t beat anyone of any note

 

[Melbourne Lion]

Geeze, I love this team but holy moly we're a frustrating team to support.

So close, yet so far away. Our best is brilliant, as good as anyone, and when on, we really gives off the 'when it all clicks, look out " vibe.

But for whatever reason, we just don't seem to be able to hold the dam wall when it begins to break open. (particularly on the big stage)

I also wonder how the recent finals performances and talk "outside the 4 walls" eventually start getting into the player's heads a bit confidence-wise.

Oh well, can't complain too much, we may not win a flag this year or the next but at least we're in the mix, which is a hell of a lot better than the previous 10-15 or so years of football watching has been.

Onwards and upwards.

 

[dlanod]

Margin is very doable in theory but there's just no signs of life out there, Dees are smothering us bloody well.

I've seen a lot of our losses since Fagan took over.

This is the first I can recall where there's legit signs part of it is mental.

That's not a good thing.

Watching this it is seriously like Brisbane are winding the clock down. You would have expected them to come out and take the game on … but no.

 

[CarterS]

As I said before the game, notice that teams always seem to play their best game of the last month against us? It's not bad luck or coincidence.

 

[JoeDanihersMoustache]

Richmond 2017 would destroy both these teams

 

[FLVanLandingham]

get this down to low 20 lead at 3 qtr time and then push at the end.

come on boys!

 

[SizeMatters]

honestly we were never in it. we never had a premiership contending team. we've drafted plodders (whilst some were skilled like Clugga) for years that have lacked leg speed and/or grunt. this is been years in the making. the game is going the way of hard running two way teams who can win contested ball for years now.

I'm blaming Schache for this. he's gutted this club. could have had Oliver.
