Every team has injuries, no excuses Lions.

Didn’t realise Neale isn’t playing.

Early days but a potential 0 & 2 for the Lions including losses at homes is massive.

Anyone watch the Lions last week and have been watching tonight? Whsts happening with them? Thanks

That’s funny, I went to edit my post and say exactly that but then, well truth be known the add break was finishing and I had to get of the toilet….😆😆

At the end of the day this for a team of our experience is a routine win, let’s enjoy it and move on. Any real judgement of players / gameplan should come against other top 6 aspirants, Collingwood, Carlton, Brisbane, GWS, Sydney & Port. On that ladder we are currently 0 & 1.

What pleased me most about the win was the way we played / tried to play. Although not perfect at times ie wrong option, poor disposal, too slow moving the ball, we played a game style that can take us deep into September. Not a fan of JVR in the ruck, rucking inside fwd 50 is one thing but not lining up at centre bounces. Vintage BBB & TMac, Chandler firing again, Oliver getting ready to explode. Thought we had our smalls in better positions today at times but little things like Kosi flying for a mark then no one at ground level when the ball spills. Not getting carried away, good win but a few things to work on.

Well his contested marking is better than Franklins but his set shots let him down. Regardless of what anyone thinks if he leaves the kennel he’s poised to sign the biggest contract in the history of the game.

His new contract is likely to surpass that of Franklins, needs to justify it.

2 easy misses this qtr, what’s he worth?

Picket flying for a mark when he should be staying down for the crumb.

Our tackling has been good.

Chandlers homework : Watch Swans v Pies & Giants v North to understand how important a quick inside kick inside 50 is.

If that umpire can’t see that the ball was touched he should be put out to pasture.

Will

Get JVR out of the bloody ruck. [censored] me.

We’re in trouble this year.

Another mark inside fwd 50 from a low direct kick. Plus their fwds create space to lead into.

Class JV

2 marks inside 50 from 2 low kicks.

Aside from wanting the win keen to see how we play in what looks to be perfect conditions. Reading the Casey match day thread and looking at today’s team we really don’t have much depth if any. We need a dream run with injuries this year. The Swans and Giants have shown the competition what’s required, what have we got?

Winning tomorrow is one thing, how we win is another. The Swans and Giants have shown the style of footy that will win this years flag.

It’s GWS esque, against lesser opposition they only have to play like this in patches to win. Top 4 hopefuls should only be truly judged against other top 4 aspirants, and on current form they’re looking the goods.

Tired of reading comments like “this puts our loss last week into perspective”. How about instead we discuss how Sydney uses the footy going inside fwd 50 compared to us.

We traded in BBB.
