Plucky last quarter with (virtually) no bench. Like Manly.

Manly has been impressive from a pressure and workrate perspective. Nice to see him put some goals on the board.

Was Fort injured?

Was Fort injured?

Didn't appear to be. Not sure what happened to Daniel Rich either.

He played on one season too many.

 

[McIvor]

He played on one season too many.

Same as Zorko and Ginston should never have been recruited and how we gave him 2 years is a joke - looks like giving Gardiner 3 last year has worked out to.

You really are not a very positive person when it comes to posting. There is still a lot to like about our club. Maybe change your focus to glass half gull. Easier to find fault than the positives in life. Cheer up .... please

Well that's a surprise.

Lions vs Williamston on this Saturday starting 11.05 am at Springfield for those interested. Followed by the AFLW practice match versus the Crows. The AFL team play at 4.35 pm at the Gabba...

Huge stakes for the VFL boys this weekend: a win seals a top 4 spot, while a loss almost guarantees missing out.

Tough game too against Williamstown who are 2 points behind us in 5th.

Can’t wait to see Greene play again.

Assume Lane is on bereavement leave which would be completely understandable with what he’s going through.

 

[Nunez]

So glad Greene is back!!

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Up nice and early at MVO for the ressies. Just heard the Williamstown club song for the first time and, frankly, it pains me as a Borough supporter to say this, but it bangs.

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

SPECTACULAR grab by Mitch Cox for Willy's first goal but the Lions lead 2.1 to 1.0 after 15 mins

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

We missed a huge trick not giving Darcy Fort

the number 40 I reckon

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Williamstown coach VERY vocal on the bench, to the amusement of our players nearby

 

[irel]

LOL, so the reserve players have their own songs post goal score celebrations.

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

QT scores tied 3.1 apiece, an accurate reflection of the game so far I reckon. After the first 10 minutes we got a bit wasteful with our F50 entries. Williamstown defence is marking Fullarton very closely. He has a goal but will have to work hard for any others he gets today.

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Loman super stiff to get called HTB there leading to a Willy goal that puts them up by 12

Yeah that was a shocker, fumbled, bounced back to him and he is nailed instantaneously.

Exactly, he was still gathering the ball when tackled

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Man, we need to be tighter defensively, three goals down now and not looking like it
