5 minutes ago, whatwhat say what said:

we need cunningham to lift deep forward

Don't we always ?

[FarNorthernD 5,861]

Yes we have a few passengers forward; Bannon, Cunningham Parry. Need them all to clunk a couple of marks

[godees 890]

Probable 2 goal turn around with the sheparding free against ?Paxy mid 2nd quarter was the difference. We feel like the better team but Brisbane take their chances. Should be a good 2nd half. Hope Daisy is ok!

[Meggs 598]

Lions pressure was very good that quarter.  We are fumbling as a result, we just have to be cleaner.  Bris were v impressive last week against North.  I had forgotten that Meg D is another defender who is an unreliable kick, our defence is full of them, our midfield needs to keep helping out.  That Colvin act that resulted in a 50 meter penalty and goal was costly too.  We will need a huge effort in the second half to win.  Great efforts by Shelley Scott and Zanker so far.  C’mon girls.

Half time 3. 1 to 5. O to Bris

Brisbane made the most of the opportunities.

Good quality game, hard run. good pressure, backlines of both team repelling the play.

bears just look a bit better, and they don't miss

and thanks to @Demonland for putting the match day thread on the 'main' forum today but it's clearly influenced the result

it is such a bummer to see daisy with that massive brace on her knee

[BDA 23,016]

Shelly Scott excellent today. Her best game for the year.

[daisycutter 29,892]

too many fumbles.....to many poor handpasses

[kev martin 10,701]

3 quarter time.

4. 1 to 6. 0 Brisbane way

Hard gut running football.

Melbourne don't give up. They are trying to construct a win, they are almost.

Hoping Brisbane fade in the lat.

Paxman back to midfield,  Scott in the forwardline. 

 

[Deeoldfart 8,105]

They look better than us but we are hanging around ....... close enough, but we need a big last quarter.   Time for Paxy, who is having a stinker by her lofty standards, to lead from the front. 

[BDA 23,016]

She's going to be a great player for us young bannon.

I wish the men played with half the heart of this team. They are an absolute pleasure to watch.
