Game Day Round 8, 2021 - Brisbane Lions vs. Fremantle

[dlanod]

I don't think that was caused by the lack of a ruckman, although I also don't think that was particularly helpful to their cause either.

I'm just not sure when they were considered the innovative "no rucks" team of the competition given a) they aren't exactly successful, and b) they would rather be playing a ruckman, and indeed made one captain, if not for all three of theirs being injured.

Great work at ground level by Dizzy

 

[MSB ROYS]

That went about 20 metres... but called play on.

 

[PertRoosOsborne]

As an aside.....Miller has been suspended

 

[Harris Specter]

Annoyed that we can't seem to put terrible sides like this away, but will take the win.

If he is fit, they will appeal.

Freo aren’t terrible

 

[Big Sauce 21]

Typical rubbish end to the game.

 

[irish]

Good job this game isn’t in Perth

 

[bato]

And now Rich is injured...

 

[jackess]

We haven’t been able to transition the footy well today

 

[PertRoosOsborne]

We need to learn how to put sides away

 

[Harris Specter]

Freo aren’t terrible

With the list they have available for selection, absolutely they are.

 

[jackess]

Dive Lester

 

[Toffee Lion]

Big O is always reliable in front of goal. Puts the game to bed, now let's get some %.

Or just let them get a few back and continue to stay in 2nd gear.

I’d rate their midfield ahead of ours

 

[Big Sauce 21]

Lester moves slower than my grandma

 

[dlanod]

We need to learn how to put sides away

Why?

 

[bato]

Lester moves slower than my grandma

Didnt dive for the ball then it went through his legs. Gotta love him haha. You can forgive him for that this late in the game.

We need to learn how to put sides away

We did in the first half

 

[ZoBlitz]

Some weird reactions in here in a game that we've been on top throughout.

 

[dlanod]

I don't understand why players get four warnings to "stay out" when running in front of someone getting a 50m penalty, when it's not like they get four warnings for high contact or other infringements.

 

[Lion_LegacyXL]

We're probably done scoring

 

[MSB ROYS]

We're probably done scoring

Was hoping to get to at least 100...

 

[Harris Specter]

Sloppy game. We have barely turned up in the 2nd half.
