Game Day Qualifying Final, 2025 - Geelong vs. Brisbane Lions

[Nathan Barley]

Rubbish kick from Bailey there. Killed all momentum

They had a couple of spares behind the ball. Bad execution though

 

[Ohitsthatguy]

To me it seems like we were outcoached in that quarter

Changes need to be made

 

[bato]

Shell shocked. Shows when we go by foot.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Scoreboard kind to us.

Injuries to key backline cogs are really impacting. Poor Frog.

Things have to look very different next quarter or it’s going to be ugly.

 

[deklares]

One of those quarters where it felt like our mids were a step behind and lacking in defensive pressure

Usually doesn't bode well

Hugh tagged ?

 

[martinson]

Haven't sighted McCluggage. We're just getting belted out of the middle.

Good position to be in seeing we could've been 4 or 5 down.

 

[Drummond]

Cmon Lions!

Clug only 1 handball, if he fires up I’m sure you’ll make a big charge.

wasn't going to let us roll over them 4 times in a row.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Neale, WAsh and Clug 2 contested possessions between them

 

[Squizz89]

Defence, Lester in particular are getting pantsed but it starts up the field. In the little time we had the ball on the ground in F50 the pressure to keep it there was almost non-existent. Mids haven’t showed up yet either just for something different.

 

[HereIGoAgain]

Hugh tagged ?

Heavily and successfully.

 

[p4p1]

You had to think that after being well held by Lester the last however many times it has been the Cameron was going to come out firing. I don’t think it is all that surprising. If the matchup isn’t working then we might need to change it. I don’t know who has the size and athletic ability to go with Cameron though.

 

[Squizz89]

Neale, WAsh and Clug 2 contested possessions between them

Not sure Neale (and Berry) are fit tbh. Need more from those other two though to get back into it though.

 

[Toffee Lion]

Scoreboard kind to us.

Injuries to key backline cogs are really impacting. Poor Frog.

Fully fit backline can carry a bad midfield night. We aren’t fully fit though down back and need to reduce the entries, midfield needs to lift.

 

[LionsOrDieTrion]

Feeling pretty good about this.

 

[GenericUsername202]

Probably a shame we didn't bring Reville....

 

[deklares]

To make our midfield woes worse their inside 50's have been mostly way better than ours

 

[janty]

At least we can't play any worse.

 

[haystark]

Cmon Lions!

Clug only 1 handball, if he fires up I’m sure you’ll make a big charge.

tbf he's being heavily tagged by Mullin. Up to the others to get it done.

 

[Mr Ripper]

Midfield, midfield, midfield.

 

[Johnny Bananas]

Not even sure what you say about that quarter. Possibly our worst of the year? Certainly against the better opposition teams you’d think. Lucky the game isn’t over already.

We've had way worse than that. I can say at least two good things about that quarter (we kicked for goal well, and Fletcher is a gun).

 

[Nathan Barley]

Our pressure factor was 185, theirs 178 so not too bad

But we just couldn't win the footy

Or transition

 

[Helicon1]

Mids need to step up. Poor effort in the centre and also defensively in transition. Frogs worst qtr in a while.
We are kicking straight which is good, though two from 2m out.
Rayner and Clug MIA.

 

[LongLion]

Fort getting smashed

Give it a rest
