Game Day Round 24: Essendon vs Brisbane Lions - Saturday 24 August - 7:30 PM - The Gabba

[Don_Gia]

The good teams just don’t turn the ball over much…we really need to get to work on this…and decision making

 

[Pesche]

McKay been copping it left and right from media but Gresham has been the worst recruit this season.

McKay not doing much to change anyone’s mind…

 

[doug85]

Righto, that’s enough for me.

 

[Dons4days]

Our ladder position really flatters us. This is a real average football team.

 

[Happyskeret]

Please don’t let Cameron kick another goal.

 

[bombreys]

On top of all the goals they cost us from their direct opponents (3 of the worst 5 in the whole comp), how many goals do McKay, Lav and Kelly cost us from not being able to kick a drop punt or deliver a 1m handball?

 

[mIKe9441]

Yep North fleeced us

 

[Snake Charmer]

How many times do these Brisbane’s campaigners sing that song? It’s bad enough having to watch Essendon play and hear that for the 4th time

 

[Schnitzengruben]

Nice Parish, really playing to your strengths with the big looping kick into f50.

 

[swindle]

How many times do these Brisbane’s campaigners sing that song? It’s bad enough having to watch Essendon play and hear that for the 4th time

Everytime Cameron kicks a goal, be prepared to hear it a lot

 

[Phone]

Crazy that guelfi looks like he hasn't played any footy in a month. Oh wait.

This is what he looked like before he got hurt too, to be fair

good thing heppell hasn't done any of those brutal goal-costing turnovers. The forum might not have survived

 

[Schnitzengruben]

You can tell team morale is high the way they react to Gresham's goal.

Fade us.

 

[Snake Charmer]

Everytime Cameron kicks a goal, be prepared to hear it a lot

**** so 3-4 more times at least lol

 

[bombreys]

How many times do these Brisbane’s campaigners sing that song? It’s bad enough having to watch Essendon play and hear that for the 4th time

You’ll be pleased to hear it’s McGrath’s opponent, so you should only hear it 8 or so more times tonight

It's all they can do to keep Brisbane fans engaged. Half of them didn't know what AFL was until the lions started winning

 

[Zach Package]

Who’s he playing on? I’ve only seen him jogging while others are getting back to cover

Well he’s absolutely braining Cameron except when we just kick it directly to him and he runs off with it…

 

[Inspecta Gadget]

Rayner took on half our midfield and dropped it. No free

 

[fishardansin]

Looks like they've changed the htb rule for Brisbane's midfield tonight.

 

[Bjchan13]

Umpires joining in too

 

[Nicholas61]

Also list decisions just got a whole lot easier

You would think so but our club is no longer ruthless or even business minded with these things

 

[Dons4days]

Watching that Ranyor non call then it’s pretty obvious what the afl has instructed that this match is fixed for Brisbane.

 

[gPhonque]

Gee whiz.. I actually like Stringer (I just think he’s being played in a position - FF - that is completely wrong) but that was poor. That was one of the only times we’ve ever kicked to the forward’s advantage… great kick by Draper… and Stringer, despite getting hands to it, still couldn’t mark it. Very lucky to get a goal then… from something that should have been a certainty.

 

[sacka]

Yep North fleeced us

Yea nah our own recruiters did that, we could of gone and overpaid a younger prospect and got the same ****ing output

 

[MightyDon]

Well he’s absolutely braining Cameron except when we just kick it directly to him and he runs off with it…

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads

 

[Blind Turn]

I hate that ****ing John Denver song. To have it worm into my ear 3+ times per Brisbane home game is enough to make me never watch another one again. Songs after goals is a horrid innovation you culturally inept pricks Brisbane.
