Review Round 16, 2024 - Brisbane Lions vs. Melbourne

[lionshine]

What do we do with the sub? Fletcher was very good after coming on

Bailey?

Yeah I’d be keeping Fletcher and Reville in the 22 over Bailey at this point god he’s badly out of form.

 

[Dalions]

We really didn’t deserve that win, but I will take it!

Bailey Fritsch 1.3
Cam Rayner 2.0

Petty 0.4

Champagne footy one week.
Brisbane footy next week.

Never in doubt !!!

 

[dlanod]

Zorko really does give much more interesting and in-depth answers than half the guys they dig up on this stuff, let alone the interviewers.

 

[dlanod]

Petty 0.4

Now that's just Petty.

 

[Nathan Barley]

We really didn’t deserve that win, but I will take it!

If Melbourne was you’d say the same about them. Kicked 3 outside of the second quarter

 

[irel]

My heart is still pumping. This is incredible. Hughie deserves his millions.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Petty 0.4

Surely he needs to be instructed to pass and never have a shot

 

[jonnobackpocket]

Yah baby, never in doubt, have a suck on that Petty, May and that absolute clown that hung around our board all week.

 

[luthor]

Did we ‘Collingwood’ a win tonight?

Yep.

I can think of something better though.

Collingwood-ing Collingwood

TOO EASY

A bit like your performance in the debate, absolutely horrific, but slightly less so than the opponent

 

[Ceebee]

How on earth did we win that

 

[Nathan Barley]

We had 28 scoring shots in the first, third and last quarters

If we’d kicked like we did last week we wouldn’t won by at least 40

 

[Happy_Neale]

How on earth did we win that

BRUUUUUUUCE

 

[Nathan Barley]

Oh and one of Lohmann and Ashcroft need to dye their hair

 

[Macca180]

Never in doubt lads.

 

[Sanchez365]

Dunkley single handedly kept us in that game and then dragged us over the line. 4 clearances on the last quarter of Brisbanes 5.

Absolute steal of a win for sure in the end, but we should have been further in front in the first and should have clearly kicked away in the last.

I thought we didn't have major lapses really, Melbourne just gambled all night and gawns dominance allowed all their players to push forward at every contest. But the ruck we got smashed and it took basically Dunkley super manning it in the last to stop the flood.

 

[Nathan Barley]

So they just showed kozzys goals. 2 were on Starce

 

[Section 5]

Melbourne played well and we were down on our recent months form.
It was a great effort in my opinion to come back in a pressure game.
We made quite a few errors in the last and blew 2 certain goals.
Those missed opportunities can get a team down, but we kept at it without panicking.
That is something we have struggled with in the past.

Melbourne kicked 8 goals in the 2nd quarter and only 2 in the 2nd half.
We won 3 of the 4 quarters it just did not feel like that was the case.

Player not found

goal was special.

We are in the 8 for now which was the main goal this weekend.

 

[irel]

Joyce did not look out of place. Well done.

 

[MSB ROYS]

What the hell did I just watch

A win, that's all that matters. Beating Melbourne is sweet, especially when Gawn, Viney and Oliver play well.

 

[Happy_Neale]

Joyce did not look out of place. Well done.

I was pulling my hair out watching him tbh. So many turnovers

is just ridiculous- balls and all.

 

[Mr Ripper]

Reckon we may have learnt what it takes to win a premiership tonight.

By all means play an attacking game that may result in you getting burned on turnover, but when it is your turn to defend you do it like your life depends on it. Think we saw that on numerous occasions in the last quarter.
