Game Day Round 9, 2023 - Brisbane Lions vs. Essendon

[MSB ROYS]

FFS kick straight.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Redman has been playing on Gunston

 

[Nunez]

Goal kicking has kept Essendon in this. Much better that quarter, but jeeze this is the type of game you don't watch on replay.

 

[SizeMatters]

Let's see if we can get some energy into this team. Last quarter hasn't been kind to the Lions this year...

 

[alscotoz2]

Andrews and Starcevich having good games

 

[McIvor]

HAd the opportunity to be 5-6 goals up but as always let them back in it - so many guys spooked in front of goal that you can see they dred it

Much better Q but could and shoud have been even more. Cant let them get the first one and a sniff

 

[lionsrules]

I thought late last year suitcases started to overcome his inaccuracy …. But jeeez

 

[Warwick]

Hipwood just keeps opposition teams in games with his kicking.

He’s a key forward yet looks terrified when kicking for goal.

 

[KissKiss]

Would we benefit more by playing another small forward like Lohmann instead of Gunston? Or at least trial it?

Just let Rayner play as the third tall. He looks good every time he gets to play that role

 

[MSB ROYS]

Just let Rayner play as the third tall. He looks good every time he gets to play that role

At least he can chase and tackle.

 

[Ohitsthatguy]

What does Gunston offer that Fort doesn't?

 

[p4p1]

Just let Rayner play as the third tall. He looks good every time he gets to play that role

The current role he is playing doesn’t often seems to benefit us as much as he could IMO.

 

[MacMum]

I think I better stay away from the tv.....I've been ordering rsl lottery tickets online, takes me forever. Started doing it at half time

...anyhoo, I could hear noise in the background and was so hoping it was us. It was. We just need to keep it up now.

 

[irish]

Still a power of work to go to win this , cannot even pick our best player

 

[mpal6]

Lester has been fantastic today.

Please get Answerth on and Gunston off.

 

[luthor]

Gave them a sniff again.

Hippy miss was expensive.

Charlie trying hard but it's just not his night

Ridiculous that inside 50 count of 54-28 sees us lead by under 3 goals

I'm happy to eat humble pie.

Not sure about Lester with a different match up but he's been really good tonight.

And whilst I don't know if Sharp will get there this year he's got the tools to be a good player .

 

[Bobby Beecroft]

Let’s hope we play this out. Got them on the rack, don’t go ultra defensive. Slowing down led to their only goal in the 3rd quarter.

Lester pretty comfortably to be honest.

 

[3KZ is Football]

Defence has kept us in it!

 

[FLVanLandingham]

thats so bullshit, if defenders don't spoil it as its called touch, they review it as its not touched..

I guess you always continue the play but still. I feel bad for that ess player who let it go

 

[McIvor]

I hope we dont try to hang on like we usually do and not attack

 

[3KZ is Football]

What does Gunston offer that Fort doesn't?

Cuddles.

 

[luthor]

Let’s hope we play this out. Got them on the rack, don’t go ultra defensive. Slowing down led to their only goal in the 3rd quarter.

I'll tear my hair out if we play this stupid defensive play for stumps rubbish

Dunkley has added so much to this midfield and team.
