Game Day PF vs Brisbane (Sat 20/9 @ 5:15pm)

[frizzle]

Posters getting stuck into Checkers - unbelievable. Clearly hampered and not up to it today, which is a selection issue, yet he’s given us so much over the years. A true warrior. Some of you are pathetic.

This. Checkers has bled for us week in & week out. Led our goal kicking most years as well. If we selected him when not fit then that is on the fitness staff & selection committee. Whatever he decides to do in 2026 I will thank him for awesome service to the club.

No he wouldn’t have, if he was a sub he would have had to play a whole game

Couldn’t have done worse than Mihocek

 

[leon123]

Devastating that they kicked 4 unanswered goals in the last quarter, after we had enjoyed the rest.
How did that happen??

Devastated at this result.

Im confident, we are all devastated, hurts a lot to be honest

 

[upnsmoke]

The over confidence of some of our fans doesn’t look so good in hindsight. We played a good team who also got much more than half of the fifty fifty calls.

Who can blame Checkers and Howie for wanting to play. Hindsight shows one or both of them shouldn’t have played (worsened by losing Pendles early).

I’m hoping for a Bobby revenge season next year, or a good trade return of contributors if he were to leave. Houston has to do what Schultz did and have a much better second season.

Yup. Jmac comes to mind and a few others.

Lions are accustomed to MCG now and could get lucky next week if Cats drop the ball or if an injury.

 

[upnsmoke]

Seems as though managing players during the season doesn’t work, you need enough games to get into form.

Howe getting knocked out was a real setback which led to him getting injured because of being old and out of form playing high intensity football with lack of build up.

 

[Vicky Park]

You dont play if youre injured , it really isnt hard to comprehend. You happy with that output ?

Of course I’m not happy with Checker’s output tonight. But I have some perspective about what he has done and achieved for us over his career, and with that in mind, I choose not to attack him over this game.

 

[NQPieman]

Checkers checked out before the game. **** him off seriously

He was absolutely disgraceful. Wheels fell off the season the exact point when contract sooking came up. There is no coincidence that Elliott, Mihocheck Cameron, Hill all started agitating when we were on top of ladder and flying and the huge drop off. From that point we beat Tigers, ugly win over defeated demons and Crows win. Amazing you never hear cats players being selfish in the media when they're flying. Not us, we always get ahead of ourselves. Just like the Cloke era when selfishness and sked interest infested the club.

 

[Bramax]

It’s our achillies heel.

And we’re not allowed to mention Logan Morris on this forum.

 

[Axl the great]

Smashed in the contest and bullied around the footy.
Then they just ran us off our legs that last quarter, this didn’t look like a PF effort, that’s the most disappointing thing about it.
That two goal swing cost us big time.
At Least now we can see where the deficiencies are.
Stop stacking the team with good service men and start stacking it with talent.
We are a gun mid and a gun KF away from a flag.

 

[regpies]

We are the next West Coast in the making

Not that bad but we desperately need midfield clearance players. Can’t just rely on the Daicos’ and McCreery to win a clearance.

 

[Bramax]

Of course I’m not happy with Checker’s output tonight. But I have some perspective about what he has done and achieved for us over his career, and with that in mind, I choose not to attack him over this game.

H Ed shouldn’t have been picked based upon so called selection integrity.

 

[cfc19902010]

Couldn’t have done worse than Mihocek

You were correct

Mihocek complete liability

 

[OniAu]

Just remember why Prestis number was given to first year players until Naicos started having it each year.

 

[Nebula1971]

Hope Geelong smash these cheating pricks

Ageeed, I cannot believe I am saying this, but I’ll be on Geelong

 

[regpies]

They chip kick and chip kick until they find an open option which means our pressure game doesn’t get a chance to happen.

They beat us in clearance and the umps helped them along.

Injured players playing and guys that don’t step up.

Never going to win with that combo.

 

[ThePheonix]

Seems like we should have rested more, the way Geelong did.

Geelong had an easy end of season draw, Brisbane should beat them easily.

 

[Go Woods]

Have you ever seen a player cough the ball up as much as Lipinski?

How does he keep getting a game.
Parker should be playing ahead of him.

 

[YouBeauty]

In fantasy land we lead by 10 goals at half time .
More realistically, even until half way through the third when we go on a tear and get 4 or 5 goals up at three quarter time and don't go too defensive during the last. .
I've gone with another mozz by multi as backup.

GO THE MIGHTY PIES!!!!!@

Deadset moron doesn't even put mcluggage in

 

[OniAu]

If Geelong dont win, Lions are winning the next three

 

[mumblingpie]

Can’t stand the flog but don’t rule out a May for Mihocek swap

 

[Bramax]

Yep, he should never have been selected to play today.

 

[gouki88]

Injured would be more realistic

Which begs the question - why the * was he played, after all we heard about “fit to perform”? He certainly wasn’t

 

[Go Woods]

Probably better we lose this week instead of next

Honestly don't think we could of beaten the Cheaters....cough, cough, I mean the Cats next week.

He may have been a great servant but he is undersized and finished as a player. It's not about what he wants to do in 2026 but what we want to do with him. Time to go, Brodie.

Lucky we didn't play bobby
