Review Round 7, 2026 - Brisbane Lions vs. Adelaide

[ZoBlitz]

Last five games have all had a margin of less than three goals. So might be a close one.

Now we're on Oscar Allen watch

I think I see his blonde head walking around. looks okay

 

[Bucking Beads]

Now we're on Oscar Allen watch

He looks like he's out and about with the team so should be all good.

Limping a bit but that might be normal

 

[haystark]

Dawson and Fages

 

[FLVanLandingham]

A good response to last week.

Charles was sublime. Linc is as always great. I liked Baileys second half of the game.

McKenna did well. Gallop also going well. Hope he is alright

 

[Toffee Lion]

Lachie & Wash combined for 78 touches. Bailey somehow ended with 29 & 3 lmao, such a rollercoaster of a player.

Thought Linc looked really solid down back, Gallop continues to hold his own down there as well.

 

[Squizz89]

FWIW Oscar was out there after the game. Seemed to be walking ok and no strapping or ice was hopefully a good sign.

Ty looks to be favouring the hammy or calf after it looked like he’d been ko’ed too.

Hopefully we get some decent news on both.

 

[Sproj]

BOOM! Comp on notice and we have HEAPS of improvement in us still.

 

[Squizz89]

Limping a bit but that might be normal

I think that’s just his gait. Thought Ty was hobbling worse after the game than Oscar was but I guess we shall see.

 

[Lions2Good]

Nice to thoroughly beat this mob.

Don’t forget they were one of (many) clubs that brutalised us during our low period in the 2010s. Can’t complain about a 50 point win but was hoping for 80+

Ah well! Life now of supporting a club going through another golden run.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Late injuries spoiled the party a little bit but overall, a thorough belting of the Crom.

A very good response to last week. Felt like a statement performance. 3 Brownlow votes for Lachie and Charlie has a day out.

 

[SizeMatters]

McCarthy made a few skill errors but damn he blanketed Rankinr when on him. Unfortunately Bailey allowed Rankine a goal otherwise a non event by both Rankine and Rachele. Both spudded it up tonight.

I was a bit sceptical of Charles having a turn around in form but tonight cemented it. AA year inbound. Fantastic year so far.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Linc a career best 23 disposals

Not the worst move given hes so good 1 on 1 but his disposal has been poor since his return

 

[p4p1]

I went with WAshcroft, Neale, McCarthy, Charlie and Bailey as my 5.

Charlie's defensive efforts have improved out of sight and he's kicking goals again.

Comfortably in our best half dozen players at the club

 

[3KZ is Football]

McKenna stays in the side and plays the Ah Chee role. He was great today. Fort was tremendous in the ruck. Lester, Gallop and Andrews murdered Adelaide’s tall forwards. McCarthy had a fantastic game, as did Wilmot, Levi Ashcroft, Morris and Bailey (when he got going). Neale, Cameron and W. Ashcroft were our best three. Dunkley, McCluggage and Fletcher showed signs of improvement, while Draper, Allan and Coleman were solid. Tunstill was a bit vanilla, but gets a pass mark. Rayner had next to no impact and got his 11 disposals, with most coming in ‘junk time’, while Lohmann remains down on form. Reville had a quiet game by his standards.

My votes were Neale, W.Ashcroft, Cameron, Lester and Bailey

 

[jonnobackpocket]

Our best is still the best, close with Sydney’s best. I know looking now you wonder why we and particularly me were ripping Bailey. He showed in the 2nd half why. Can do anything when he is in the mood, just has to work harder to give himself to play like that second half.

 

[cotter101]

We’re back baby!!!

Gallop and Linch really impressive down back.

Bailey in the first qtr was terrible.. but no one else on our list can do what he does when he is on. I really hope he stays.

 

[KissKiss]

For all the selection melts (me included) thought Tunstill played well. Seemed to be doing a decent job especially defensive running on the wing.

Happy for him to have another game at least until Berry returns

Nah. He landed heavy and instantly was troubled and came off.

I'm worried about Gallop. That knock will get reviewed and he will have a concussion test post game. In the moment I thought he was out to it - the way he rolled didn't look good.

Gallop is probably the most easily replaced in our team though

Allen the concern would be long term

 

[BuntonRules]

That is better.
