Demon Disciple

That's what Spargo should be, but he refuses to play that role.

5 of the last 6 goals. We've stopped again.

Have to agree Wise. If that is indeed our gameplan, then keeping the ball in once it hits the deck has to be our biggest contingency plan should we not mark it.

Fritsch back out running the boundary

That's what happens when you just bomb it in long. A bit more clarity from those delivering the ball would make it easier for our forwards.

Went through like a freight train! As for Smith, got injured through his own stupidity. Decides to play and after marking and have his kick smothered when he should've gone back and given himself more distance over the mark.

The Lion's love appealing for frees don't they.

Stick him on a wing and put Fritsch down there. Easy.

At least he hasn't stuck out for all the wrong reasons. Hello Oscar McDonald.

Means bone is sticking out. He'll be out for a good 6 weeks. Great.

Agree with you on Mathieson. I'd love to take a bat to his face, but someone has obviously beaten me to it. Christensen got 2 of the duckiest free kicks to end that quarter. I don't wish injuries on players', but if he continues with that, he'll deserve the injury that is coming his way.

We kicked more than we handballed, increased our entries into the forward 50 as a result, and significantly lifted our tackling rate that quarter. Funny what happens when we decide to gaf, play simple football and do the non-negotiables well.

Give it time, the way Gil and Hocking love to make up [censored] on the fly, they'll soon be reducing the playing field 20m either end to increase scoring. We'll look pretty good then!

I think you're referring to Christensen there GCDee. He came out of the ducking factory of Geelong so no surprises.

hmm, tackled and takes the ball to ground. Yeah just wave your arms you muppet.

Just about his best lead for his entire career. He is so explosive and played his entire junior career in the forward line. I'd have him as our third 'tall' and have Smith use his athleticism to pressure the contest.

It was a serious hyper-extension, so i wouldn't be celebrating too soon. Wait until the scan before we start thanking some deity.

We were half way there before we decided to play some football GB.

Agreed Travis. J Smith thinks he's a world beater, he's about 4/5th in line when it comes to our tall forwards. I'd like to see Weed get more aggressive though, and tell him to keep out of his space.

Bloody annoying, clearly lack of communication, but i'd rather all went up than none at all.

only a dislocated finger thank christ. Put it back in then some ice will do the trick

Lions are being direct whilst we are stuffing around with too much handball.

Not sure if you've noticed Sisso, but going back to early 2000's, our season proper has generally reflected our pre-season form.

We look so hectic when going forward, yet we're letting them waltz through the midfield going the other way.

Good to see we have improved our defensive efforts over the summer. fmd.
