2nds 2024 VFL thread

Brain is developing at a rapid rate before our eyes. His level of improvement from when he first arrived at the club to now is exciting.

Hopefully another rookie selection that reaps major benefits e.g. Patfull or Drummond in past years.

The caller called Harry Sharp as the kicker. I had to check he wasn’t listed.

Yep this, I didn't look properly at the player and took this bonehead callers word for it.

 

[Elixuh]

Sharp showing why he should have been picked in the AFL game today. Lovely kick inside 50 to Thomas.

A true case of we are not watching the same game

 

[Johnny Bananas]

Extremely stupid of three of our boys to fly at once and get in each other's way. Gotta have a better plan than that.

Backline has been very poor all season

 

[Mayestro]

Red time goals!

 

[M Malice]

4 goals in 4 minutes to the Suns.

 

[Gadzorks]

Having their red time nap.

Frustrating that both teams are capable of this

 

[Elixuh]

that moyle is a bit of a specimen. Nice size for a ruck

 

[Grasshopper17]

It points pretty clearly to a club-wide issue in my (strong) opinion.

I suppose this points to a mentality problem across the whole list. Stronger argument that there's a coaching issue at play.

Hard to defend when three Suns are running through the 50 with no Lions mid fielder in sight.

What’s the backstory on the other Lohmann

 

[M Malice]

Suns look a level above us at the moment, getting more players to the contest.

 

[Nathan Barley]

That's the problem with Tunstill, wins an excellent clearance then turns it over. Needs to get better outcomes at this level

 

[BuntonRules]

F***, this bloke mcommentating gets verbal diahorrea.

 

[M Malice]

Shadeau Brain is so calm under pressure, it looks like he assesses his options as the ball is coming to him.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Hopefully Morris replaces Gardiner soon and he can help out the VFLs defence

 

[Mayestro]

Missing Reville’s foot skills and Sharp’s run.

 

[Johnny Bananas]

Hard to defend when three Suns are running through the 50 with no Lions mid fielder in sight.

While this is true, the defending is still piss-poor even so. They don't seem to know their roles.

 

[M Malice]

Suns running through the middle of the ground in numbers and we have no answers.

Suns 58 v Lions 31.

 

[PattyKwasagun]

Brain definitely looks like the most AFL-quality player out there. Super impressed by him.

 

[M Malice]

YAY! ZZ takes a good intercept mark.

 

[Elixuh]

Reville and Sharp outs hurting our ball movement

 

[Nunez]

Brain definitely looks like the most AFL-quality player out there. Super impressed by him.

Has been amazing seeing his growth from HFF unlikely to get a game to HBF and considered for a potential debut to last year and now a player who looks genuinely ready to play a role in the 23.
