Game Day Round 12, 2021 - Melbourne vs. Brisbane Lions

[jackess]

Ah Chee has been good. One of our best

 

[almagoo]

Madden might be raw, but Lester and Birchall is one slow too many against quality fast teams. Has to change.

 

[M Malice]

We were ordinary in the 3rd quarter, we have been horrid in the 4th, look so so slow, best I can say is we were due a loss and the bye has come at a good time for a reset.

The Demons are the real deal, they have butchered us since half time.

 

[Jono_Hain97]

Long and slow still why

 

[Brett C]

Wheres the captain, king hitting campaigners off the ball ?

You’re an absolute child.

The same captain who’s leading the tackle count and top 5 for pressure acts

 

[MSB ROYS]

For Christ sake lions , score !! Two uncooked players in a match like this was a mistake

I don't like Birchall, Rich and Lester in the same team.

 

[MacMum]

41pt turn around for Melbourne

 

[Big Sauce 21]

We were cruising. One pathetic stupid ******* brainfart changed every thing

 

[jackess]

Prior isn't smart enough

 

[Sherrinator]

Adams has been shocking tbh. Has not kept his feet at all today.

 

[cotter101]

Man Adams does some good things but spoil the damn thing.

 

[FLVanLandingham]

eugh Melbourne deserve the win, but I wanted a hard fought battle for a win either way. Always feels horrible losing with some bad playing.

 

[jackess]

Zorko where was that pressure when Sparrow had a shot on goal

 

[dlanod]

For Christ sake lions , score !! Two uncooked players in a match like this was a mistake

Explains Daniher and Charlie, Oscar and Zorko, not to mention Adams. Which two was it again?

 

[jackess]

Well done Lester. Obviously cooked

 

[alscotoz2]

Very good team are Melbourne. Outclassed us in the second half!

 

[MSB ROYS]

Birchall. Straight to the VFL.

 

[LionsMaw]

Tempted to turn this sh*t off. Terrible.

I already have. Being driven insane is not healthy.

 

[PTizzle]

We love our long kicks down the line to Demons players

 

[RU_]

Maybe it was the loss we had to have. Looked amazing in the first half and then the complete opposite in the second.

 

[jackess]

They have completely stopped our ball movement

 

[ForzaRoma]

Keep Neale, but Lester should be dropped. Not good enough anymore.

 

[FLVanLandingham]

eugh rich handballs which leads to a kik under pressure and the easiest intercept.

come on boys get some momentum and pressure!

 

[Toffee Lion]

What a ******* turd of a second half. Could have gone into the bye as world beaters brimming with confidence, but we serve up this dross instead.

This will be the one we rue at the end of the year.

Wake up calls aren't bad. We probably needed a swift reminder that it takes a lot to be premiers and that you can't have it easy all season.

If you're ever going to get slapped around in a tough match, may as well be before the bye where we can rest up and go over the footage.

Sucks for the fans but I don't think the club will mind the timing of the break.

 

[ZoBlitz]

I still don't understand the complaints about team selection when we were on top in the first half. Just Melbourne raised the pressure in the second half and no one really lifted to meet the challenge.
