Happy for Top 4, but the win was a bit ‘meh’. Cannot see us winning 3 or 4 finals to be honest. No doubt we are competitive, just have far too many lapses in games. Forward craft still frustrating, we loved kicking it to Ned Reeves today, why on earth a big body doesn’t go up to compete baffles me. At least try get to the contest. Sometimes we just boot it into the 50 then hope and pray someone can mark. Lower the eyes please. Hoping for Pies week 1 👍👍

Having watched Casey today, have no qualms bringing in Hibberd. Ultimate team man that does team first things all day long. Even at 3/4 time huddle was giving his two cents worth. Woey to have a spell, or Jordon.

Kudos to Petty, now you need to bring that intensity every week. Max since he has gone solo has stepped up big time, big clap skipper. Viney tough ba$tard and is driving expectations. Trac I am always calm when he is near the ball, you know he is going to give you something. Thought our first half tackles weren’t sticking, area I think we could lift big time. Tigers were good, but we are competitive and giving ourselves one hell of a chance leading into finals.

Hard to get a read on performances in very ordinary conditions. Pig been playing down back, had a few touches that quarter. Shack played a bit of ruck that quarter. Briefly spoke to T Mac at quarter time, said ankle feeling good and was out training this morning before the game. I asked if he’ll be back for finals and said hope so. He’s quite a big man up close. Dogga Brown here watching his son play, had a nice tackle on the wing that quarter. Needs to put on some bulk though which is understandable.

Oliver just came out of Sauna and into rooms. T Mac down here watching, along with Choco.

Haven’t even looked like scoring, hardly been in our forward half.

Have ventured down, very windy. Looks like Oscar Mac lining up on BBB. Forward line has Grundy, Brown, Shack, Spargo and Laurie.

May the Death Ride continue today 🤞🤞

Lever did some silly/undisciplined acts which cost us goals. The deliberate out of bounds was clear, gotta be smarter than that. Then the downfield in the last cost another goal. Then May and Lever beaten by Tex, who kicks another goal. Gotta tidy this stuff up. Unconvincing win, but as others have said, we are at least competitive week in week out. Bring on Tigers.

Can’t we just put a team away?

They would be ahead if they kicked straight. Momentum swings so much. Need to be more consistent.

We can’t get it past the centre

Game would be closer if they were kicking straight. The last few minutes they’ve lifted. Come on Dees, get it back.

May [censored] kick out of defence, need to be better than that

Max needs to start clunking those marks, he calls for it, mark the thing.

Stiff I agree, just would like him to succeed and do enough to keep his place. Think it frees up Lever to float and intercept, which is his thing and benefits us greatly.

If worst case we lose (yes it can happen eg Giants, Freo etc), the only benefit is it helps the DEATH RIDE! 😝

Everyone’s weekend just got a lot better 😝

Think we are all shell shocked. Didnt look a chance. Brisbane stopped, we took advantage of it. Liked the 1 ruckman set up. Max played well solo. Still think we are too slow. But well done boys 👍👍👍

How the F did we win that ?????????

Too little too late?

We need a miracle

Melksham quiet since quarter time

Best defence is the league? I’m with you

Honestly I reckon we need speed. Some of those Lions players have looked a lot faster than us. Maybe a draft/trade need?
