Game Day Round 20, 2023 - Gold Coast vs. Brisbane Lions

[Nathan Barley]

Hard to argue that we’re capable of playing 4 quarters. Maybe done it in 2 games this year?

 

[Harris Specter]

I think even the most optimistic supporter can see we aren’t going much further with the current setup unfortunately

Eyebrows raised when we replaced Ashcroft with Lohmann. Our coaching staff have no clue.

 

[tate13]

Recruiters need to go. Haven’t drafted a single decent mid in the open draft since Clug

The same recruiters that brought Daniher, Neale, Cameron, Dunkley to the club?

 

[JasRulz63]

How many in our current team did we draft from the open draft?

Really needed to get in more talent from the last 6 drafts

I count 8 (9 with Tunstill).

 

[FLVanLandingham]

well if we need losses like this to really settle on who we want going forward into the finals... then i'm fine with it. we need to make the hard decisions now when they can have an impact.

lets use this as a LEARNING

 

[Nathan Barley]

Our ball movement has done Gunston no favours

 

[Lionheart182]

Gunston cannot be persisted with. It is untenable with how bad his worst is. A shadow of an AFL player at this point.

 

[KissKiss]

Rayner playing another disappointing game.

There's probably 3 or 4 players who have been worse today and should be dropped first. But yeah Rayner should be dropped needed to stand up and hasn't. Been a big part of us being poor today.

Sadly Fagan won't change and will probably make 1 or 2 changes at most

 

[FeastOrFamine]

I've lost the allotment shed

 

[FFB1]

Arguably, Top 2 on the line against Melb, BLEW IT.

Arguably, Top 2 on the line against GC, BLEW IT.

* this s**t.

Outcoached and carrying far too many passengers, week after week. Rayner’s contribution is a problem again. Gunston, Berry… same old output.

 

[martinson]

I'm a fan of two talls over three but stop blaming him for a loss that is very clearly the result of mids, half forwards and half backs.

True.

But surely you realise he's hopeless when the game's hot.

Fagan needs to put that pipedream to bed .

 

[Harris Specter]

Fagan will make a stand and drop Lohmann and Fletcher.

 

[Nathan Barley]

I count 8.

Gee Conole has it easy when he only needs to provide 1/3 of the team

 

[Nathan Barley]

Lohmann s first goal

 

[Sproj]

Lohmann gets his first!!!

 

[Nathan Barley]

That should be a week based on Zorkos suspension

 

[Tom14]

Do you keep Fages around for that period though?

Giving him a 2 year contract extension was a great decision!

 

[Warwick]

Rayner 1 handball in the last quarter. No marks. No tackles.

Thanks mate.

 

[Jivlain]

Lohmann s first goal

Took a while, but at least he's popped the cherry now

 

[KissKiss]

Fagan will make a stand and drop Lohmann and Fletcher.

I dont know if I should laugh or cry at how likely this is

 

[Lionheart182]

LEARNING

Triggered

 

[martinson]

I wouldn't mind us getting belted today if we were 2 games clear on top of the ladder.

Fairly inexplicable given what we were playing for.

 

[scoman]

Rayner 1 handball in the last quarter. No marks. No tackles.

Thanks mate.

Rekon he might have checked out.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Took a while, but at least he's popped the cherry now

His pressure has been ok too
