Any chance you coach an under 11’s team?

Any chance you could think a little bit deeper?

I am still pumped! Have to watch the 3rd quarter again later in the day.

 

[BuntonRules]

The best thing

Although the clearance count was even on paper (42-39 to Port), Brisbane kicked a whopping 13 goals from the source, while restricting their opponents to scrappy exits.

Just looked different to earlier in the year, when it was often the opposite.

His chase of Duursma in the last 1/4 was inspirational and shows just how much of a team player he has become.

Hippy has been watching too many nature documentaries and thought he was a real lion and Duursma was an antelope

Just out of interest, what was Williamson's free kick count for the two teams?

It was reported 14-2 to Port.

I was re-watching the third quarter today and noticed Williamson paid at least three free kicks to Brisbane in that quarter alone.

He paid the one to Daniher in the goal square that Fletcher played on from and goaled, and some of the more contentious frees paid to Port in that quarter were paid by the other umpires. So I think we can put this one in the made-up bullshit box.

Beat me to it, saw the 3rd whilst on my lunch break. It was just after Charlie’s 2nd goal.
He had paid the hold on Joe earlier. Plus I counted 3 paid to the Lions in the defence.
Lester for HTB, Coleman near the top of the goal square and another not long after that one, didn’t quite catch who got the free.
After his 2nd goal, the free against Charlie was for a tackle when the player didn’t hve the ball and Starc for an ear massage (high contact)

Does anyone keep thinking back to last Saturday? Honestly might be my favourite evening at the football ever. So proud of the team.

I still have Country Roads as an earworm, and I don't even mind

Mine is the MCG in the final against the Demons last season, the euphoria when the siren went was spine tingling, the fact that we came from behind against our nemesis and defending Premiers made it so sweet... the Jake Lever jig topped it off.

Only thing that could beat it would be being at a GF win.

Last Saturday was fantastic though.

 

[Nathan Barley]

The Melbourne win last year was better because it was so unexpected

Agree, I had mates in melbourne who follow other clubs text me to sit back relax and enjoy the last quarter.

I did a Jig in my Lounge Room when Jake Lever was doing his. Especially after he gave away the 50.
Magical!

I think that jig is my favourite moment from that game.

That and when Bailey ran around the edge of the boundary and slotted it.

And the Charlie mark and goal in the pocket and Clugga running goal.
The list goes on.

Little bit more of this for your Friday.

Wouldn't it be awsome when Charlie kicks a goal in the grand final and the Mcg breaks out in this song.
That is my dream.
Or maybe I'll get it going down some pub in Brissie , either way delicious.

I've had the exact same dream

Followed by some awesomely confused expressions on the faces of those who have never watched a game played at the Gabba (and possibly some revealing lack of knowledge from some of the commentary team)

 

[Whatamark]

Watched the replay last night. Lions were even more awesome than I remembered. This time felt they were much more in control and strangely that the umpiring was not as bad as I thought. Benefit of knowing the final result I guess

 

[MSB ROYS]

There is a Virginia in Brisbane, so maybe we need to add in "Coot-Tha mama" etc for total confusion.
