Brent Moloney @ Brisbane

[premiershipvigil 10]

Watching Brent Moloney against Bulldogs: Slow, poor overhead and inconsistent ... not disappointed to see him playing for Lions.

Stef Martin's worse.

[Sir Why You Little 34,818]

Moloney has a ball & chain around his ankle. Has for years.

We will benefit in his absence. The team can move forward.

Moloney and Martin

Mediocrity in action

Maloney seems to struggle more when his team is having a bad day........will be good to see how we'll the Lions go in 2013 season proper, if Demons finish above Lions then Voss will be in the crosshairs.

Except for that year he won our BnF hey... No need to hate, he needed to move on, he did, he gave us some good years and one terrible one.

20 touches, 5 tackles, and a goal in 3 quarters so far today.

Ignore the stats I have watched the game. Typical game where he wins the ball and kicks to no one.

Doesn't mean [censored]... Been watching the game and he still has his bad habits Bombing it long to no one, trying to take on 10 blokes etc..

Fair enough. Just don't see why we have to hate on him, gave us some good years, left when it was due etc.

[Jens Lehmann 75]

Unfortunately for Beamer, failure seems to follow him.

Those that understand the game can see why.

[Jens Lehmann 75]

He left far too late stuie, and was an influential player in the poor culture we've worked to eradicate.

Moloney and Martin enjoying Groundhog Day,

Won the BnF the previous year, so didn't think he would have left then.

Fair enough Stuie but how influential are those stats.....it's not like the Dogs would say gee Moloney was dangerous more like gee Moloney was average dont u agree? And I don't hate Moloney at all.

[Jens Lehmann 75]

I was a big supporter of moving him on before and immediately after his B&F win.

Who was giving out the votes at the time, is an important consideration.

Plus, there's a reason he's on a pittance at the Lions.

I'm not watching the game so I was only going by stats and was happy to defer to those watching, but just thought his stats didn't support what you were saying at the time.

[Pates 9,537]

I have no ill feelings towards Beamer, but I'm glad we let him go because he wasn't going to do anything with us. I hope he keep racking up possessions, I've got him in my dreamteam!

A lot of bombing long to no one in particular.

Haha stats!

Let me relay what Eddie commentated a few minutes ago, as has become standard throughout Moloney's matches:

"...Moloney finishes up with the ball and sends it inside 50... And it comes back out again courtesy of Cooney..."

[P-man 13,276]

A lot of bombing long to no one in particular.

Pretty much his trademark.

All I said was that he was slow, poor overhead and inconsistent because I was actually watching him play that way his stats don't disprove my comments......I'll move on

IT was more about you saying he goes missing when his team is struggling, which was often true for us, but as I said I was only going by stats as I'm unable to watch the game, and the stats didn't seem to support that view.

[rpfc 27,633]

Just watched Beamer look slow and one dinensional and Martin look lost.

I am sure both will get better but who cares really.

This wasn't a good day for all those people who think that the NAB Cup should be taken seriously.

The Lions were dismantled as NAB Premiers.

They also sold half as much hope for that title as they burnt today.

You're not wrong. Stats are half the story. Brisbane's mids put no defensive pressure on their opponents and their NAB Cup star (Rich) got no protection. These issues are long acknowledged flaws in Beamers game, (not that he is wholly responsible) but he was part of a dreadful effort today.

Voss will learn quickly (should already know from watching Melbourne games) that Martin isn't a forward. Should have started him in the ruck. Minson pulled Longer's pants down from the first bounce.
