Review Round 3, 2024 - Brisbane Lions vs. Collingwood

[ThePhilosopher]

A bunch of men you don't know losing a game can really shatter your sense of self

I'm going to scream into a pillow until it all starts to make sense

 

[Bucking Beads]

Time for Fagan to be hard on these clowns and also hard on himself. 2024 looks like another wasted season. Feel like we’re the Western Bulldogs from mid 2000’s who just were never quite good enough

 

[davemc_lions]

Seriously Richy is done mate. Probs went on a season too long. Body just let him down in the end.

still offers more then some out their tonight

 

[BRAB]

No stadium

No wins

No joy

Bring back Adcock.

 

[p4p1]

We’ve clearly been trying to find some decent kicks through the middle and half back unfortunately injuries have killed us

But you don’t need to be a good kick to kick it to a forwards advantage.

 

[Sproj]

Not gonna win any games playing ok for one quarter.

There must be something going on at the club, they don't seem happy. Even if they do wake up at some point, the season might already be too far gone.

 

[martinson]

Unfortunately I've got to say some of our guys switch off after a quarter of effort.

 

[FLVanLandingham]

we can cover up the cracks with some better.... luck? in front of goal? (though really.. some of those rushed misses we should have slotted)

anyway, Neale really did some good work tonight, other players had some really nice moments, but it came down to just a lot of fumbling and wayward kicks. and that's just on the offensive side.. defensively.. eugh

 

[Tom14]

Nope.

Be very, very good.

Or be very, very bad.

Sadly Briz is correct

 

[JasRulz63]

Our tackling has always been poor, but was exceptionally insipid tonight, especially in the first quarter. Weak efforts all round.

 

[questeds]

Can't keep finding synonyms for poor performance. Too many of our players are not showing up week on week. I kind of don't blame him for not making drastic changes, since he'd literally have to drop 70% of the team to deal with those lacking effort.
I believe that we must have the worst ruck options in the comp, every week we're made to look useless at the ball up. Forwards couldn't buy a mark tonight, other than Linc (who must be on track for B&F) and so many handballs missing the teammate.

Something is seriously off right now, like if something came out in the media that there was some big revelation, I'd be like 'yep, that explains it'

Surely, surely we've got to have success against North next week.

Bring back Adcock Gunston.

Fixed

need to drop Hipwood. Him and Joe basically witches hats when the pies exiting defence

Rather play a young kid
Same as Answerth just play Brain

 

[Lionheart182]

Effort was decent but far out the skills and goal kicking were horrendous. Umpiring was not much better.

 

[Sproj]

Looking forward to seeing...eh...Dev and Fort pay for that performance.

Fagan doesn’t drop his pets, we all know that.

 

[martinson]

Apart from next week our draw not looking flash either.

 

[scoman]

Effort was decent but far out the skills and goal kicking were horrendous. Umpiring was not much better.

Yeah effort just decent, tackling a massive concern though.

Huge. How many arm tackles did we attempt. Weak efforts all round

 

[Lets Roar like '44]

Effort was s**t. What do you mean it was decent?

 

[Pacman82]

Zero creativity up fwd, just chaos ball, no stab passes or kicks to advantage, the line coaches have a lot to answer for as well after that pathetic display.

 

[Yesterday Dog]

Time for Fagan to be hard on these clowns and also hard on himself. 2024 looks like another wasted season. Feel like we’re the Western Bulldogs from mid 2000’s who just were never quite good enough

God I wish we had a key forward signed up for 5 more years then!

 

[Section 5]

I just hope after the North game we are equal with the Pies.

we won't be winning anything from here - time to start a rebuild - get rid of the dead wood and think about our next coach.

 

[LionKing]

No team cohesion. No hunger.
