Review Round 16, 2024 - Brisbane Lions vs. Melbourne

[Happy_Neale]

Melbournes sub usage was crazy, subbed Petty off with 3 min to go for a second gamer. Classic degenerative Goody

 

[Nathan Barley]

SEN scrubs gave the following 3-2-1

Picket 3
Dunks 2
Viney 1

FFS

I’d probably go Viney 3, Pickett 2, Dunks 1

What a roller coaster. I thought Dunkley, Clug, Zorko, Hipwood and Berry really changed the tide for us.

I feel we rarely turn around games in game when we're getting towelled up, so great to scrape over the line.
I wasn't the only nervous about this game, given all the good press we've had, so a win with lots to work (and no injuries) is probably the perfect thing long term.

And how about Clugga, he's been given so much stick for his goal kicking over the years. All good, Joe, I got this

We should trade for Doedee asap!!!

Doedee plays small/medium? And a stretch can play on a Vanroyen type

We need KPD depth and it’s so evident, let alone a bloke who’s done his second acl is your answer

Fagan usually gets a knock on his game day changes. Tonight, he got that right.
Dropping the Viney tag and Ashcroft move to more midfield time.
Then using the sub early in the 3rd to get more run on the field.
Young Morris just struggled tonight but that happens with key forwards that are only 19 years old.
I think he plays next week v Eagles.
See how he goes and that determines if they manage him v Swans the following week

We just looked much better tonight after those changes.

Yep

 

[Big Sauce 21]

Bruce is a winger kiddy. We've found a winger finally. Jaspa was also very good when he come on, Bailey can go to sub next week.

Dunkley with his 2nd quadruple double. In nerd stat land, this is as good as it gets.

Told you all we’d win

So good to see Ashcroft back. Thought his class and touch late was telling.

Got the Crows next week

Bailey is an issue, what is his role?

 

[MSB ROYS]

We have a lot of young players as well Goody...

Forward graveyard.Whatever it is, he needs to lift.

 

[Squizz89]

Great win all things considered, but if we have an ambition on doing anything in this competition we still need to find ways to half momentum when it goes against us.

When things go bad it goes real bad. We need to turn those 6-8 goal run ons that teams get into 2-3. Can’t afford to give teams that kind of run on in finals and expect to come back and win to often.

0-50 gamers tonight:

Brisbane - 9
Melbourne - 11

I hope Goodwin didn't use youth as an excuse.

He’s 6’2” and 90 kegs…I see him a as an intercepting 3rd KPD…with Andrews, Payne, Lester, Gardiner and Joyce it’s hardly a catastrophe…I mean you never say no to more depth but lets not get dramatic

Forward/relief mid

A little in his presser. However, said that was the best they have played pressure wise.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Goody speaks well. Must be sober tonight

Doedee plays that same third tall role that Lester does. He'd be preferred to man up against a big body than Joyce (especially after tonight).

Ooo haven't seen them over on the east coast. Intriguing.

kicking 0.4 was good to watch - missed every crucial goal.

should’ve donated $500 for every behind to Ronald McDonald house

 

[Dom PC]

Melbourne probably played their best game of the year tonight as a team and were really set for this game, and we managed to get the win. I think this is a massive tick for us.

Still got room for improvement but we are definitely in the hunt for a top 4 spot now I think.

TOO EASY

Just like your debate today. Love your work !
