Tigers have an easy run home. They could make finals. 

Port in Adelaide, Hawks at the G and Essendon at the G. 

Could lose all 3. They lost to Norf don’t forget

I've said it before but Brisbane's leadership and midfield is highly questionable. They go missing at really important points. Remind me of MFC circa 2002-2006. Really poor again.

Agree.

But their main issue is their woeful defence.

Old school sysyem thst just doesn't cut it - as evidenced by how many big scores they've give up.

Cost them this game as they simply couldn't stop the tiger's momentum

From the AFL game day thread

"Searching for their first win since Round 21, 2014 at the MCG, Brisbane gave up a 42-point lead and were overrun by the Tigers. This came about as Brisbane's ball movement was stifled by Richmond. In the first half, Brisbane turned 34 defensive chains into 16 forward 50 entries and 6.3 (39); in the second half, 30 chains only yielded seven entries and three behinds."

Brisbane did a Melbourne.

Welcome to the Dangerzone, Lions.

Serious question- have we been 42pts down and lost this year? I don’t think so but wondering if you or anyone knows

I love when Brisvegas play the self appointed barometer, Rhys Mathieson.

Random thought….

Blues don’t make the 8 (even if they win tonight).

Lions @ Gabba 

Dees @ MCG

Pies @ MCG 

Tigers to win next 3.

Blues making the 8 comes down to them beating the Pies rd 23.

Massive choke from the Lions. They lost it more than the Tigers win it. Lions won contested footy, clearances, inside 50s etc. just what the bed when the pressure came

Agreed. Zorko is the worst captain in the league and yes I am including Heppell in that. He is a hot head and thinks of himself. Argues with the umps and has personal grudge matches a lot. 

the Sooner McCluggage is made captain the better for them

Uh oh. 

Oops. I could not pick a winner to save my life this year. That is why I don't bet on Melbourne games.

Brisbane's chance to win a flag was the only year in history when the finals were/will be played in QLD. Not sure where they go from here. Back to QLD, I guess.

They can’t win, neither can Flagmantle. It’s out of the current top 4.

Rippa great result for Dees beat Pies where locked in top two

Wouldn't count on this - Sydney have North, Collingwood (at the SCG where they are 8-2) and St Kilda to come. Very good chance they make up the 4 points and 5% between us even if we go 2-1 from here.

So basically if we beat the Pies and Carlton we will finish 2nd?

I hate seeing Richmond win but it helps us

For now.

Keep winning and it could be us against the Swans at the G.

Lose one and it could be Swans at the SCG.

If that was the case, I think I would prefer to finish 4th and play the Cats at the G.

Haven't worked out all the scenarios needed for various results yet, I am sure others on DL will.

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
