  1. Ok glad I didn’t watch much of that qtr. It may be self-punishment but I’ll watch after half time to see if we’re actually going to do/change anything. Midfield need to pick up. Take marks. Run the lions ragged. Kick lots of goals
  2. Might turn this off. We’re not it tonight. Might check in later if I’m brave.
  3. Fancy the lions serving up slop so far this year and here even hipwood is having a dip. To be fair though we are helping them along. Midfield getting thrashed, defence pretty poor. Sloppy, no marks, lots of passengers. Positive? Kolt looks the goods. Great kick to Fritta
  4. I hate daniher’s face but I’m hating our defence work even more. Getting creamed, losing clearances and no marks. Really poor
  5. Defence being creamed by Hipwood 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
  6. Defence being creamed by Hipwood 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
  7. Are we going to take a mark?? Why was Daniher ALL BY HIMSELF?
  8. How good!!? NIBBLER!! Nibble nibble nibble and Kolt has been right in it, looking good!
  9. HERE WE GO, HERE WE GO!! LIONS FOR DINNER!! LET’S GO, BOYS!! 🔥
  10. 3 HOURS AND 45 MINUTES TO GO... ...UNTIL WE UNLEASH THE KOLT AND HAND OUT SOME PUNISHMENT (SORRY FOR CAPS, INTENTIONAL - PUMPED)
  11. Ooof just wandered through that f******** thread... Think I'll stay on here today, and that's saying something!! (Unless we're getting smashed, in which case I might go clean out the garage) (We won't get smashed - We'll round out the pre-bye with a gritty 3Q arm-wrestle, capped by a runaway 4Q) Dees by 24pts!
  12. This is true. But the reality is we won't escape the year without injuries. I hope McAdam plays a lot this year, but based on his history, he may not. Factor in BBB out from time to time, which will require a little shuffle. Plus, Melk plays such a good defensive forward role - there will be games we'll need/benefit from that. It's a long season, I am guessing we will need his experience at some point (provided it's not at the expense of our entire forward line becoming unavailable, again!).
  13. ABSOLUTELY!! We'd have another flag if Melk and/or Petty didn't get injured. Aside from having those guys injured right before finals, and Fritter clearly not 100% - it would have been incredibly disruptive for the team to have to continue to move magnets/adapt strategies before/during finals. Our forward line is already looking better, even though it's only still settling. Imagine 2-3 months with Petty/McAdam finding rhythm, and then Melk to return in good time to find his feet and form for finals.
  14. LOVE THIS ❤️ I was so happy for the boys - it felt like one of those galvanising games and great to get one back from the Lions after the 2022 final. So many involved, but how good was it for Melk to have his moment? Completely deserved it. Such a quality footballer and seems like a real nice guy, too. Can't wait to have him back. Oh and I still love Hipwood trying to claim that final mark!! 🤣
  15. Game day, legends!! Who's excited? I'm excited! OH, AND MY 1Y0 WHO WOKE UP THIS MORNING AT 455AM AND REFUSED TO GO BACK TO SLEEP - CLEARLY COULDN'T WAIT FOR THE GAME!
  16. BIG Caleb Windsor vibes in that play!
  17. Disco will be a big part of our backline in years to come. Has been crazy unlucky with injury.
  18. My gut says Kozzy is likely to cop a week. Not the worst action, and pre-Maynard probably would not have caused much of a stir. But because of Maynard we are in a different space. But wouldn't it be a cruel twist of fate if he gets a week purely because of the rule change that was introduced following the Maynard hit - for which he got no punishment? But Kozzy gets a week? And Soligo played on?
  19. The only real negative for tonight is Kozzie’s likely suspension. We really need him next week. Not a lot in it, but enough in today’s game and completely avoidable and unnecessary.
  20. Was not hoping for nerves in that qtr but we would have been gassed and held them up really well in the end. We take 4 points and won both games in Adelaide, with only 5 days break. Can’t imagine that was pencilled in at the start of the year. Can’t argue with that! How good is McVee? Caleb was impressive. Great effort boys - bring on the Lions then a well deserved break.
  21. We should have put these guys away by now but we have wasted chances and they have had grand assistance from the umpires. We need a few please.
  22. That is what you call an umpire’s goal. What a crock.
