our forward method still a problem.

no point long bombing if we can't contest at ground level

Ions will kick the first goal of the third term and it will be all over. The last 10 minutes lions were begining to dominate and they kick goals from a long way out. Any chance Jefferson can take a mark? Took one in the first quarter and missed everything from 30 metres. JVR is not much better.

Players with 5 disposals or less till half time: Windsor, Laurie, Sharp, Taylor, Jefferson, Chandler, Heath.

Windsor has been around it heaps, not worried.

Chandler too.

Laurie I just can’t get around.

Moose showed mungrel, we need that. Doing good in ruck too.

Chandler doing a lot off the ball.

Sharpy needs to pick it up.

Jefferson off to the magoos. Should have bought in Kentfield/AJ.

1/2 time. 

Dees 36 Lions 52 

🤢JVR. JEFFERSON. Both had chances but really need to grab the footy. Sooo frustrated. Not teenagers anymore. it’s now 4 & 5 years

🤬Fritsch overhead handball when could have turned and kicked towards goal. Langford is ok but needs more acceleration to be the player we need. 

🤬Lions 3 goals in last 8 minutes to get in front 

🤬need more press and pressure Brad Johnson on Fox clearly seeing and frustrated by Dees not pressing up to stop the release half back kicks FFS we all see it

🤬Windsor is better today 2 tackles 3 missed tackles Gotta work on that

👑 Kingy Watch COLEMAN and WILL ASHCROFT both getting plenty of the footy without pressure 

👍🏻Best players: Turner, Steele, Howes , Lever, Kozzzy. Defenders generally okay but we get cut up through their midfield runners

Jefferson is a Giraffe

No pressure on them after we score a point Lions just waltz it down the ground no pressure. Someone needs to man up on Bruce he is having a field day out there.

Let's go guys. Run hard, pressure, tackle and everything.

Come on lets kick the first couple & get back in this

Not sure what's happening with our bench rotations if not injury. Windsor and Laurie both spent well over half of that quarter on the bench.

Not that worried about Jefferson yet. Liked his two marks and goal kicking will come with more confidence. Contested ok but probably needs to have more repeat efforts at ground level. Not helped by ball movement, he'll look better when we move the ball better by foot and finding him on the lead.

Im starting to worry.

Capitulation incoming.

Has that feeling.

Too many passengers.

Max zero marks......very unusual.

Players like Fritta

Sparrow

Jvr

Suddenly they play a sensational game and I feel like they are new players.

Alas just the one off good day out.

Chin.

Laurie.

( who has never really had a good day out )

Petty.....like his name.

Steele ok but not really shining.

Sharpe....not souch today.

And too many newcomers or ins that haven't played for a long time and it shows.

well technically we are still a chance but need the first two for sure.

Otherwise, it's all over.

lions punish our turnovers

we're not able to do the same unfortunately

Langford disposal? He will improve I hope

Good stuff. Now get the next one

we won't capitulate today folks

not 2 weeks in a row

To quote the great Borat.....

NICE.

Chins goal that one.

Great workrate.

I don’t know if Latrelle is not fit enough, or possibly a bit lazy.

As soon as he is stripped of the ball he gives up, and waits for someone to give it back to him.

Comparatively, Koz goes to the end of the earth and is hungry for it.

Langford is a machine

The running up and down the members wing is great, a la Stretcher

If Petty stuffed that up….

Brissy - 2892 total games

Us - 1952 total games

Only 940 games between the two teams, haha

We’re going alright

Petty's best work.

Good work Petty.

Kozzie you are a 🌟

he's a first year player

he doesn;t have the tank yet

needs a couple of preseasons same as kossie did

Tholstrup has been really aggressive with his kick ins.

Brilliant kick from Langford to find Sharp who kicks goal no.2!
