Yep, I agree. Good seating. Love the fact once you're in the gates, there's plenty of green space to sit and relax and an oval to kick a footy Last time we went, we sat on the grass and played cards, drank beers and wandered up to our seats about 2 minutes before the game started

Just finished watching the game. Our kids are really giving us so much more run and energy. Caleb Windsor is just as steady as a rock. JVR is just getting better every week. We don't need Hogan, we've got someone who's going to be better. The Kolt is going to be a gem. But also, don't forget Jack Viney. With Clarry finding his feet again and Tracc out, Jack's been doing the usual grunt work without much recognition. He's such a wonderful leader for this club as Rivers pointed out in his post game interview. His pressure and tackling today was just superb. What a crazy season. I'd really written the boys off this year but next week's game is going to be a belter.

The booing is quite incredible by blooooos fans

C'mon blues, lose by a goal

Dangerous tackle pffft

It is always worries me when the 2nds are performing so poorly. Bad signs. How did Brown go today. Is he still having a crack?

That is absolute gold. Can he commentate Collingwood games instead of BT?

Geez those long high bombs into your f50 don't works so well Collingwood do they?

C'mon pies catch up and then lose by a couple of points. Make my night

The umps have got the armchair out for the bummers now

I wonder what would happen if you just stated, you must dispose of it legally. Handball or kick. That's it If it's stripped, free kick If you're tackled and it's held to you, free kick If you've gone to ground, you must knock it clear (still a legal disposal) Jack Viney would probably get 20 kicks a game. No more "look at me trying to punch the ball out" fake rubbish

Me too and apologies for derailing the thread. I'm very happy to see Jake back in action.

If he's sub, should he be one for the whole last 3 minutes of the game? 😁

Amen Titus Like us, umpires are trying to determine the nature of an event that no longer has any connection to reality. It is the AFL’s crowning glory. As usual, a very good read https://titusoreily.com/afl/the-magical-fairyland-of-afl-umpiring?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAaaI33B5hYUmUR_7PUXnGsFqrNPNZnAD3J_TXME-rflpSMQd1OqT6WyHRn4_aem_IKWwmAJMc0wEZvTwjmyUTw

Great comparison @bobo and yep, the corruption is ruining the game. The AFL is a disgrace

Kate Roffey has some media skills and profile and should be out there being more vocal. That's what the powerful clubs do. I like her, I really do. She has a lot of time for the fans and members. It's very strange to see her go to ground like this.

Yep we're better with Petty back and Tmac forward

Sure am. Free tix from a good mate who's a lions member. Would love to hear the Gabba go quiet in the last qtr. Fingers crossed. R U up there too?

Have a weisenstaphner pilsner and a pork knuckle for me. Probably my favourite beer ever. Oh and have some schnapps too!

Yep I agree chook, I still think we'd be better running him as sub for a while and give some youngsters a crack first. Having him come on midway through the third as an impact player might be a better way to manage his fitness levels for the moment. Might be a better way to reduce his frustration with the heavy tags flright from the start of games too. Can't See it happening though. Can't see him being dropped either with Tracc out now. He is one of the best midfielders I've ever seen. God I hope he gets back to his best somehow and he's still wearing our jumper. A wicked problem for everyone at the club right now

Then why play Clarry? Run him as sub and start brown on the field. Make Clarry earn a full game.

JVR 68 percent time on ground tonight. Weird

Me too, 3 hour drive up. Feeling quite nauseous about it. Will be in the lions members section.

Yep. I've seen this movie before. Trying to ice it with 6 mins to go

Leaving Oliver on. Are we tanking? Poor kid 10 minutes of game time. That's just cruel and stupid
