And one more time we kick it to the trailing Brisbane player. For Christ sake Melbourne fix that [censored] up

Again we kick straight to the trailing Brisbane defender.

Kicking it straight to the oppo player trailing our forward isn’t helping you must admit

Just as soon as they stop paying frees one way and not the other

Another [censored] kick straight to the oppo inside our forward 50!!!!

Jeesus ump open your [censored] eyes

Too many players got across for the switch there and left all the Brisbane guys free on the other wing.

Get tired of us kicking it with pinpont accuracy to the loan oppo player inside our forward 50

Why do players run to the side when taking set shots on goal, it’s such a low percentage option. If you are unsure of the distance pass it off.

Wow the lions are bloody awesome at hitting up a leading forward

that would be unwise I reckon

Jeezus umpire your allowed to use your body like that!

Somebody’s abducted the 2023 Demons and replaced them with the 2021 version!!!!

Quite true and good point. On reflection, I wonder if our handballs in the first were generally to targets a little further away from the immediate contest? It seemed as the game went on, our handballs were often to a player in or very close to the immediate contest which meant they were under pressure as soon as they received the ball.

Something that flew under the radar a little was handballs v kicks. First quarter we had more handballs than kicks. Next three quarters we had more kicks than handballs. Our overuse by hand has been an issue for the past month or so in my opinion, so to see a shift in game like that is a real positive for mine and a trend I hope to see continue.

Very happy to get the win, but will need to be improving steadily from here to have a chance of doing something in September. Hopefully the start of our run!!! 👌💙❤️

Can one of our rucks just belt it to center half forward occasionally to get it away from their mids

Duck we look lazy tonight

Smith only has 4 less disposals that Kozzie and he’s been off all game!

Only for one team

Really need to match the numbers around the contest, keep getting beaten by their extra at each stoppage

Trac’s best kick for months!!!

And then jogging/walking up to the 50, then kicking poorly straight to a saints player when we had 3 at the front of the pack, just needed to put it in front of them. Lazy effort that.

Is it just me or does Kozzie regularly look like he could impact a contest but doesn’t attack it?

Other thing that was a highlight was the umpires stayed mostly out of sight, 3 frees to 1.
