Game Day Round 12: Brisbane v Essendon, Gabba, 29/5/25 7.30pm AEST

[Vindicater]

Damn.

We had it down our end for so long and then they go bang down the other end

 

[Mr Bultitude]

THAT WAS HTB.

 

[nipst@r]

The thing going forward is that the way we've played the last 2 qtrs has to be the bare minimum each week

We have some of the most delusional fans.

Tonight showed we are finally on the right track and why we need to embrace the approach.

But youth is inconsistent and we still have dark days ahead. Bottom 5 and 3rd youngest list.

Been a good week, selection of youth over shiel/parish, long term list needs focus in the msd. We just need supporters to embrace the rebuild and have realistic expectations. We win 10 games this year thats huge for where our list is.

We have 2 1sts, nga and a gun f/s in the compromised draft.

Embrace the approach but be realistic.

 

[SpeckieMcVeigh]

**** this hurts to lose. Even though I absolutely would've taken this effort and margin before the game. I wanted a win, the effort of the boys deserved one even if the skills didn't.

 

[Knighta21]

Hipwood did same as Perkins. Dropped it and no free to us

 

[mike14]

Setterfield with more bad than good tonight. The bottom few on our list are really the difference in a game like this.
the good news is that there are kids coming through who can start taking their minutes

 

[Squeaky]

When you're the premier not all the rules apply.
But if you're bottom 6, never take on the tackle

Dont think the youth is the issue. It’s questionable efforts and patches of games from senior / experienced players
Mcgrath redman Perkins

 

[Gabe251]

This is a win tonight. Proud of the babies.

 

[wichidi]

Well played boys.
Brisbane beat half our VFL team at home. Wouldn’t be celebrating too hard lions.

effort and intent doesn't need to be inconsistent, even if the results they produce are...

 

[bommer16]

Hard having to play umps too.

 

[mxett]

Tsatas, seriously, that's junior footy stuff

 

[Goat Hird]

Lol trip

 

[ydc55]

Great effort Bombers
Archie Robert’s I needed to kick that goal and Zac has best the best player at a mediocre club
Can he evolve to be a good player at a strong club

 

[MightyDon]

Truck off that’s holding the ball and trip paid?

 

[bommer16]

Onya dons. Be proud you gave it all tonight.

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Setterfield just useless for his size. How can you be 100kgs and 6’3 and hate contact.

 

[Mr Bultitude]

I've only watched this quarter, have Lions been dropping the ball mid tackle all night? Bloody infuriating!

I agree with everything you said... but ****ing drop Perkins!

 

[Goat Hird]

If you told me we took Roberts at no. 5 and tsatas at no. 54, I'd believe you.

 

[Blind Turn]

Duzza might get a week’s rest anyway now

 

[VelvetSledge]

Can’t be upset with this. Played brilliantly after quarter time. Well done boys

 

[Harlequin]
