Game Day Round 15, 2022 - Melbourne vs. Brisbane Lions

[SizeMatters]

We need 5 players with leg speed and ball winning ability. That's how far we are off IMO. Will take 3 years to get that many players. By then Rich, Zorko, Neale, Lyons will be gone.

Watching cam break lines sustains me

 

[Helicon1]

Last qtr centre speaks line up volumes. Need a change

 

[Eons]

Rayner starts in the middle and we win the clearance. Should have happened in the second quarter when they were getting on top

 

[Nathan Barley]

Are McStay and Cameron playing tonight?

Yep but midfield has dominated

 

[Jivlain]

Looks like Lyons is being subbed out

 

[FLVanLandingham]

that was Rich vs 5 Melbourne players, good lord.

 

[Jivlain]

Good pressure JBez

 

[Nathan Barley]

Starce, Kiddy and Payne have been good

 

[Nathan Barley]

Oscar up to 8 clearances

 

[PTizzle]

Clug has been impressive defensively but has really butchered the ball.

 

[FLVanLandingham]

* me thats 2 drops in a row.

good tackling by us, we did it right, but whatever

 

[Johnny Bananas]

Coleman is good but thinks he's great.

How do you figure that?

 

[Fagenslions36]

Was going cockatoo was gonna give us that power and speed in middle but hasn’t worked out

 

[briztoon]

We need to reinvent our midfield and our backline. So slow to move the footy and little to no defensive run. Is Matho injured? We need some pig dog aggression in the guts. Thought J.Berry would play that role, but Fages seems pretty set on playing him on the fringes.

I believe you have Matho confused for some one else. I honestly do. He’s a much slower, worse kick than Mitch Robbo. He’s honestly not an improvement over Lyons.

Also it’s been discussed here a fair bit that JBerry’s shoulder is stuffed, and can’t stand up to the bashing it would receive playing inside.

why am I still watching this....

 

[Nathan Barley]

We haven’t given up a lot of easy shots on goal but we’ve given up a lot of shots

 

[dlanod]

Kiddy

He's given them at least a quarter of their goals...

 

[FLVanLandingham]

late play on call. give the defender a chance please...

 

[Nathan Barley]

It’s tough when we play 2 midfielders short with our wingers doing nothing

 

[JoeDanihersMoustache]

Htb and throws have been terribly officiated in this game

 

[dlanod]

How do you figure that?

He's very good at making difficult kicks. So he's a good kick.

However he has a bad habit of taking difficult kicks and not making them. So he thinks he's better than he is.

 

[MacMum]

why am I still watching this....

I'm not now...too frustrating.

 

[FLVanLandingham]

eugh okay I guess the win just isn't there tonight.
