Game Day Round 7, 2024 - GWS vs. Brisbane Lions

[BuntonRules]

s**t finishing is s**t football

Just, s**t football.

Hugh can pack his McCluggage, not worth whatever he wants over 6 years.

 

[martinson]

Been a while since I’ve seen Fagan give the team a bake.
I think it’s about time

Fages probably needs a bake as well but after what he's been through I'll give him a Mulligan

a Platoon

 

[Harris Specter]

The problem is that Fagan hasn’t made anyone accountable for those failures. There’s been no consequences for the poor football we’ve played.

This.

 

[luthor]

Stupid thing is that at the beginning of that quarter, we looked like we meant business.

Then the missed goal and the one down the other end etc etc etc.

How can we play such slow football and still get caught like this on the turnover time and again.

there’s no ticker this year. Had opportunities to put teams away early in most games - including this one, yet failed every time. A very easy run coming up and we’ll be lucky to square the next few weeks

 

[M Malice]

5 day break is absolutely no excuse, Giants off 5 day break as well.

We desperately need some speed through the midfield, none of Dunkley, Neale, McCluggage, Berry, Rayner are noted for their speed, all on the slower side.

 

[Gadzorks]

This is atrocious - seems like we pick and choose which games to turn up to. Completely outplayed last quarter and very little effort to keep up with the giants run. Can’t see the season getting back on track from here

To be fair, we've consistently decided not to turn up to games this year.

 

[scoman]

Play the kids!

 

[Nunez]

Imo too much sweat is getting in Dunkley and Starces eye, they CANT SEE s**t

Get some ******* hair fellars!!

 

[RU_]

Put a fork in the season.

 

[Grasshopper17]

15 inside 50s to 10 that quarter.

9 shots (60%) to 3 (30%).

 

[Harris Specter]

Play the kids, rescind the offer for Berry and McCluggage.

They are not the ones to take us forward.

 

[Helicon1]

Another red time goal.
Another deplorable qtr with poor disposal constant turnovers and a huge lack of effort.
They consistently had loose players running harder.

 

[WhiteLionfever]

Am a lions supporter but a real joy in watching gws every other week.
Play with skill and intensity and workrate.
Teamwork.
We look asleep atm

 

[Elixuh]

lol dal santos commentary is so limp

 

[Squizz89]

Disgraceful, very few blokes look like they even care tonight. Season over already just like the old days.

And this was the worry for this season, given where the team has been the last few years. After playing in big finals for the past 5 years, the back end of this season could really get away from us from a motivation point of view. Things could then get real ugly.

 

[Thedeftouch]

Watched a few games with Callum Brown, feels like he never misses

 

[Lions Flag 2020]

Brown would be on 1/4 money of hippy and Joe. Swap in a heart beat for his kicking accuracy alone

 

[Grasshopper17]

Ha we're still ahead on expected score

 

[martinson]

The scary part of this is that the Giants have their 3 best players out.

 

[PTizzle]

Ha we're still ahead on expected score

I'm surprised about that - GWS have kicked well but they've all been pretty straightforward shots.

 

[KissKiss]

Watched a few games with Callum Brown, feels like he never misses

Honestly makes me sad watching other teams just nail shot after shot while we seem to have some of the worst goal kicking in the comp. We have lazy forwards who are also terrible shots

 

[Nathan Barley]

How is that not 50 twice?
