I think this beast mode should only come out for crucial games, or crucial times … it’s not sustainable but can be called upon when needed … it’s a balance … long season.

I have been waiting forever, through tears of frustration for many years for no.17 just like a hell of a lot of us … Cripps deserves a premiership with us way more than any player in our club’s history. (Probably because all the other great players of his calibre have actually won one … with us...

Did what we had to do. Thought our ball use was pretty fumbly all day, just not much clean, crisp possession. But it’s the start of the year coming off a bye, so plenty of excuses. Who wants to be playing premiership winning football in March??? Not me! Rack up the wins early, don’t care...

Just wondering if anyone here would like to let me know how Paddy Dow is fairing at his new club. Always liked him just wasn’t a pick 3 … SOS s**t the bed on that one. How’s he going?

He made two really big mistakes that cost two goals tonight. Leaders don’t do that. Has got to take that out of his game.

Umpires really s**t the bed this game for both teams. Brave game by you guys tonight and I’m not talking Essendone brave. Glad we took the points but all things considered you guys deserved the win, injuries aside you would have. We were off today and you didn’t want to lose.

Leadership was truly lacking back there. After a fantastic game last week Young was bereft of confidence for most of the game. Heart in my mouth everytime he was involved in the play.

Knew after last weeks win we were going to struggle tonight … too much emotion last week. Seriously though the amount of goals we screwed up was remarkable. I’d say around 7 … where we had them on the turnover and just fluffed it. Big H was huge and so glad for him. Ball hit Curnow’s boot...

Gotta say you Brisbane lions supporters are seriously amazing. Horrible loss and none of you are making any excuses. Giving credit to the victors, wow just blown away by your fantastic attitude. BL are my second team so if we don’t win it, stick it up ‘em …. unless it’s us you are playing in...

Oh what a beautiful morning! What an absolute glorious win by the boys. Seriously though these close games, they are brutal for my nerves! Sydney final, Demons final and this my god I’m doing my yearly physical next month and expect the cardiologist to say I have the heart of an Ox … what a...

Yeah, killed us in the prelim as well, u don’t wanna see any player injured but he is a player the6 sorely missed

I did that too, except for Owies, not having a go but not his best game

Yeah gotta say no foot in mouth moments … took his chance, sees what’s happening, good on him

A banging victory by all accounts

I lost faith but at least I was smart enough not to print it on the internet … go bluebaggers

Oh my word what a game, when Saad dropped that mark and let Cameron kick that goal I thought it was over. Harry kicking the winning goal after last year!!!! My god I’m living on Bizarro planet … and loving it! Had this game as a loss, but said to mates upsets happen first round. 46 points...

Isn’t it funny that the closest these losers have come to winning a final in 7000 days is when we took the cheats place and beat ninthmond from ninth hahahaha.

Pass the Dutchy on the left hand side?

Have always loved and still love SOS but as the years pass his record as our list manager gets bleaker and bleaker. Did our spine proud thank god! But let’s be honest that and Martin are the standouts with way overs for Williams and McGov. The rest, so far, pretty much busts …. JSOS too and a...

Delistings are a hard thing to swallow but with a heavy heart think we made the right call. LOB, I believe will get picked up elsewhere and hopefully he develops some composure, it’s the one attribute that if he gets a handle on will help him immensely at his new club. Not sure what happened...

This McKay free agent ploy wreaks of the old CFC and just crystallises that * have learnt nothing and are still following their (and old CFC’s) MO. Which is an abject failure in todays football world. The only thing aI am certain of is that as long as they refuse to change they will continue...

Completely agree, at least now we will have a chance to find out over the summer and the early rounds of 2024. Finally the list is at a stage where we have brilliant depth and spoilt for choice.

I can’t agree more. What got us to finals, the play we perfected, went away (probably started the GC game to be honest and persisted till the end) and we reverted back to how we played when we were heading towards 15th mid season. We still managed to win 2 finals but it was obvious to me that...

He murdered us, set so much up for them, best on ground by a country mile.

Definitely agree. I think a lot of it was due to our two ruck approach. JSOS was a huge loss imho. We will learn from this and winning two finals and playing in three was a huge bonus for us this year. We were never going to win the while lot this year. Coming from 15th, winning a shed load...

Think your club gained a lot of respect and a lot of new supporters this year. I for one really enjoyed your journey.

The whole club took learnings away from yesterdays game. It was a tough slog getting to where we got to. Lots were carrying niggles that contributed to the loss compared to the ultra fresh lions. Let’s not be too negative on things, I think content is pretty important right now rather than...

I’m not one for paying big bucks to a ruck, think it’s the most glorified position on the ground. Saying that there are exceptions but also pitfalls … I think TDK will be an exception, whilst players like Grundy the pitfall. Pitt is the ruck you have when you spend your money elsewhere. He is...

It’s 3 am and I’m hurting. The loss in itself was expected. We were beaten up, tired and let’s be frank those two Herculean efforts against the Swans and Dees took their toll. But why oh why kick the first 5 goals and make me believe! Don’t get me wrong, only have praise for the boys and...

Cripps was injured gave his all, Cotts kicked the first, should have kicked another but had a so so game, Dutch will take a lot from this game and build more in the off season. They we’re not great but the side was playing beaten up, let’s put that into context first.
