As you were saying lolneale making tracca and oliver look like hacks
I dont think Brisbane bat deep enough.Genuine question – Brisbane have a handful of excellent 1:1 defenders in Andrews, Adams, Starcevich, yet are so easy to score against. Is the midfield not running both ways to blame?
To put it frankly, their midfield is just not very good and looks even worse when Neale is tagged out and Zac Bailey doesn't play.Genuine question – Brisbane have a handful of excellent 1:1 defenders in Andrews, Adams, Starcevich, yet are so easy to score against.

I hope enjoyed his bathRent free in your head though.
I know it isn't ideal to rely on a kid but Will Ashcroft would be a literal god send to help reshape the future of our midfield and keep us in contention with the next crop of younger talent emerging.To put it frankly, their midfield is just not very good and looks even worse when Neale is tagged out and Zac Bailey doesn't play.
Thanks mate. if you guys had've kicked straight early it would've changed the context of the game. Nothing changes for you guys. Finish top 2 and you'll GABBA your way to a granny.Big props to the Dees. A real 'mature' response to a rough few weeks, it's what the historical best sides are capable of doing. Well done.
Not much to say about the Lions. It's easy to say "pretenders" etc because of poor finals performances in recent years, we just don't have the credits in the bank to escape criticism and rightfully so. Is our best good enough to contest? Absolutely. Do we bring it out enough in tough games? Absolutely not.
Still, history suggests that good teams can have some rather obscure losses and still find results at the pointy end of the year. We'll see what happens.
Oliver 3Hear it already. " Rd15 Melbourne vs Brisbane. Lachie Neale 3 votes.

Not sure what your hatrid is with him? Played a solid game, he didn’t need to kick a bag and brought the ball to ground. He’s never been a contested marker you should know that.How was Ben Brown getting outmarked about 67 times tonight. it's got to be some sort of afl record. lol

His spoil in the second quarter to set up a Melbourne goal was vital.Not sure what your hatrid is with him? Played a solid game, he didn’t need to kick a bag and brought the ball to ground. He’s never been a contested marker you should know that.
FWIW if I was a betting man I would have taken the 40+ line on Melbourne tonight, that's how I viewed the matchup and I think the bookies were on the money with their $2.4 or $2.5 call. I'd also say it's looking more like that it'll be Melbourne/Freo 1/2 and GF matchup to boot.Thanks mate. if you guys had've kicked straight early it would've changed the context of the game.

I think you were just stiff that we played well tonight. The last few weeks against Sydney, Frem and Collingwood we have played so far beneath our best that we were almost unrecognisable. It was looking like the same in the first quarter but we were lucky you guys didn't hurt us.FWIW if I was a betting man I would have taken the 40+ line on Melbourne tonight, that's how I viewed the matchup and I think the bookies were on the money with their $2.4 or $2.5 call.

We just plain suck in Melbourne, especially the MCG (8 years now and counting). Up against the reigning premiers fresh off a few bad losses. It was the perfect recipe for disaster. But as I said on the Lions board, I think we'll actually benefit more from the belting than if we had of kicked straight earlier and forced a close game. We've had some real shaky results the last few weeks and escaped criticism.
Now we need to go back to the drawing board and respond in a Melbourne fashion next week.
Was massive, I thought he played quite well and has for the last couple games now. The job of a KPF isn’t always to kick a bag, setting up the smalls is as important and he did that well tonight.His spoil in the second quarter to set up a Melbourne goal was vital.
I appreciate the sentiment but if we are to be contending, we need to be capable of dealing with your best and not hoping you have an off-night. Which I think we showed last year we can match for a bit of time but not 4 quarters. Tonight was 1 quarter unfortunately.I think you were just stiff that we played well tonight.

Is that a compliment anymore?Fox Footy camera work for Goody's presser deserves a Logie
Its a b- grade midfield. We look awesome against s**t teams due to our fwd potency and strong backline but against the best we get out played through the middle.Genuine question – Brisbane have a handful of excellent 1:1 defenders in Andrews, Adams, Starcevich, yet are so easy to score against.
