Game Day Round 3, 2016 - Geelong vs Brisbane Lions

[Greggy85]

How do we continually let the opposition get goalside?

 

[Grizzly86]

I think the frustration many of us feel stems from seeing many players at other clubs in the 50-100 game bracket, drastically improving, whereas some of our blokes in that bracket aren't improving at a similar rate.

As a supporter base, we just have to maintain the faith, not much more we can do. Whether that's what the club should do, is a different question.

Who great idea was it to make Merrett Captain. Hanley should of been Captain. Electing to go against the wind. LOL.

It was a stupid decision but let's not pretend it was the key issue that quarter. Insipid football was the real culprit.

 

[hench]

Sack Leppa Now!

 

[SizeMatters]

I suspect Hanley has been carrying a chronic injury since surgery and I suspect he will carry it for the rest of his career. Will never be the same player I fear.

Unfortunate if true. Maybe he should move to the HBF. Would be less taxing on his body if he doesn't have to crash his way through packs all the time.

 

[Harris Specter]

What is Merrett doing

 

[BRAB]

Lester held for a good 10 seconds

 

[Happy_Neale]

Thought we showed way more effort last week. We look lethargic and our tackling is non-existant.

 

[theteamtobeat]

I swear we are better off playing Merrett in the reverses and playing Hipwood for the rest of the year.

 

[royboys4eva]

Enright held Lester for 10 metres and umpire didn't see it - unbelieable

 

[Back2Back2Back]

Hold on Robbo, hold on Lester. Nothing. Great consistency.

 

[Elixuh]

Really need to kick this.

 

[Harris Specter]

We still handball too much to a running player about to get tackled.

It's easy to say it from the couch, but it's about awareness.

 

[Mooch]

We've been young for 5 years.

The go home 5 completely obliterated us, it's why our rebuild is taking so long to complete.

Let's not forget this. The players that should now be hitting 100-120 games and be solid AFL players left a big hole in our development.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Sack Leppa Now!

Nope.

This is a massive class and experience differential on show. Not tactical.

 

[hench]

How do we continually let the opposition get goalside?

Because they're young?

But in all seriousness, at time against North there were 3 Kangaroos players behind the last Lion defender.

 

[Toffee Lion]

1.6

Can we get Browny to follow the boys back to Brissy for a week and show them how it's done.

 

[Happy_Neale]

Blicavs runs rings around Green then slips his shitty tackle. Where is the intensity today?

 

[Mooch]

In the first quarter, maybe in the second. We seemed to get a handle on it after that.

 

[Elixuh]

Good work Mayes 2v1 there.

 

[lionshine]

Good spoil Sammy!

 

[Happy_Neale]

Just go for goal Mayes!! What was that.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Mayes

 

[Elixuh]

Good work Mayes 2v1 there.

Anndddd its gone.

 

[Mooch]

Terrible Mayes. Should have had a crack from there.
