Game Day Round 3, 2025 - Brisbane Lions vs. Geelong

[scoman]

Gout Gout beaten by Kennedy.

 

[luthor]

Very similar vibe to that game we lost to them in the wet last year

No doubt these conditions suit their game style.

We do look pretty tired and sluggish. Not that surprising is it after those two opening games in stinking heat and humidity?

It's a long season and we don't need to catastropheise even if we do drop this game.

We know our best is the best.

Come on Lions

Midfield is getting smashed and they are just running harder on the outside.
We came here expecting to play wet weather footy and are stuck in a boring one dimensional style of play.
They are playing the conditions much better than us and we haven’t adjusted.
Just like last year but the complete opposite.
We need to start running and providing options or this game is gone.
And the midfield needs to lift because they are being well beaten.

 

[martinson]

Hawks /Giants game looks a cracker.

 

[twhowler]

Well i called this - kicking efficiency. 58% to 41%!

It’s a wet ground but dry in the air. There are good transition goals out there

It’s partly our skills which have been poor, but it’s also the space we are giving them.

They are running way harder - would make sense in the 4th given our humid wce game but not now

We have given one too many handballs quite a few times

Our forwards look constantly outnumbered. They have free targets everywhere

If you knew nothing about ladder position / last year you’d say this was 1st vs 15th. Absolute gulf between the sides

We are missing oscar. Just need a bigger body in the wet. and he’s so good at thumping it forward

No hope of winning this imo. Hoping we get a rocket during the week, come out firing v the tiges, and go into gather round with some confidence

 

[braddsey]

The new stadium has a roof, yeah?

They’re just going to pull a mega-tarp over the stadium for matches vs Geelong.

 

[Helicon1]

How many coast to coasts have we given away with piss poor ball use.

 

[010203]

Great work Hugh after a dreadful forward half turnover.

 

[010203]

All 7 of Lachie's kicks have ended up in the arms of Geelong players.

 

[KissKiss]

Without Andrews this would be 10 goals

No hope is a bit much but I agree with the rest. Last year's finals series taught me to not give up this early.

Charlie, what the hell was that kick?

 

[deklares]

We're actually on top here but still butchering way too many opportunities so far

Cmon Bails

 

[martinson]

Wasting our opportunities totally this quarter.

 

[MSB ROYS]

Stick to drop punts in the wet Charlie.

Predictable kick unfortunately.

 

[martinson]

They're still outnumbering us around the contest.

We've had the ball for 10 minutes.

At last , something.

 

[lionshine]

Playing much better this quarter. Great goal Levi

 

[Toffee Lion]

Great goal Levi!

 

[martinson]

Stick to drop punts in the wet Charlie.

Or any time.

 

[KissKiss]

Very nice first goal!!!!

 

[MSB ROYS]

Levi! Go Lions!

 

[010203]

I have a look at the Reds game and I miss Levi's first sausage roll.

 

[Johnny Bananas]

Finally the yellow maggots are working in our favour

 

[KissKiss]

That kick by Payne!!! Wow
