    Review Pr(O)logue Round, 2024 - Brisbane Lions vs. Carlton

    I’m amazed at how little scrutiny is given to Starcevich. At times against Carlton he was standing on his own, guarding space it would seem. IMHO it’s probably time to look at alternatives. As for the pre-season suggestion of a move to the midfield, that’s just fanciful.

    Coach Fages and the coaching group

    Cotchin! What sort of nightmare is this? I can just see Cam Rayner, a player Cochin ‘stomped’ on a few years ago, being his first client.

    Intelligence to the fore from a magpie. What did I say that was incorrect?

    Well done Windies. Go and eat humble pie, you arrogant, entitled mob of Aus cricketers. No, humble doesn’t suit their narrative. Very quick to forget the pasting from Stokes and others, not that long ago.

    May have tried the wrong cell, or the wrong Welsh!

    So Scott Welsh, 205 games, 363 goals, but only 36 and 30 at Norf, is an incorrect answer in today’s Gridley!!

    Re Blake Coleman, drafted at 24 in 2020, matching Collingwood’s bid (????), he had 3 pre-seasons to get himself fit. I’m not aware of an injury interrupting his pre-seasons. But it may have. I always look at the vfl stats. Very rarely did Blake get to double figures in possessions this year...

    Those people at Wiki never rest. Brandon is already shown as a Brisbane Lion.

    Pardon the intrusion. Congratulations on the signing. He was treated shamefully at Melbourne and will lead your team up and up. But let us win the 2024 flag, then you can win the next one.

    Opinion Bris- The curse of the Afl sponsored Ferrari?

    Yep, could have got Zac, except he was always going to the Dons where his brother was. It’s a shame Ben Lennon was taken by the Tigs at 12 in the same draft, because he would have been handy as.

    Fletcher played the last 14 games, Before the finals, in the 11 H & A games, his TOG was 67%. I think that’s asking a tad too much.

    Players can be managed, including Prestia himself, as he has a few injuries. A lot was asked of Fletcher as a first year player, this year as well.

    Who goes out? I’d go with 3KZ’s statement that Berry should not be an automatic selection. He really pushes his luck, and it cost us.
