Brisbane will be bottom 3 this year. No forwards and despite what many say, pedestrian in the middle at this stage (with many in the potential bracket)
Todays Brisbane midfield was not the midfield the media was pumping up. Take 2 of Kerr, Cousins or Judd or Voss, Black or Akermanis or Gablett, Selwood or Bartel or Mitchell, Lewis or Burgoyne out of those gun midfields and all of a sudden they aren't going to be that amazing. The Lions are missing Rockliff and Hanley at the moment, arguably our two best players before DBeams arrived.

I've been so keen for football to return for the last six months, two weeks in and I'm just about done. Bleeeghhh.

That is the point very weak depth. Look at Hawthorn and forbthat matter Sydney they bat deeper and cover injuries.

We are one of the most efficient at scoring once inside fifty, so your statement of bottom 8 is bull if you're questioning efficiency.

Missed a lot of easy goals today. Didn't look at the stats just didn't pass the eyeball test. The bookies have ballooned out your odds to make the eight despite todays win.

Good little percentage booster.

We always look like that without dal, wells injured for large portions and when we are way out ahead.
