Re: WB Game Day V Brisbane Lions R8 2019

McCluggage is a ripper. I think he is looking like the best player from that draft. I think Essendon missed a trick choosing McGrath over him. I can understand GWS overlooking him given the talent on their books in the midfield, but the Bombers would be a better side with McCluggage in their side.
McGrath is good but McCluggage has real game changing abilities and excellent size.

How good is he below his knees

I've got to admit I have been spoiled over the last 12 seasons or so because I tend to sit with other Bulldog supporters for home games.
Today I was unlucky enough to have many Brisbane supporters sitting around me and oh how I had forgotten just how obnoxious they can be. There must have been 4 or 5 of them that just mouthed off all game. One of them mouthed off at both Bontempelli and Naughton's set shots and then he just had to shut up for the majority of the last quarter as the Lions simply refused to be direct towards goal even when being 3 or 4 kicks behind. He left at the 20 minute mark of the last quarter and someone asked if he wanted them to save his seat.

They have some good youngsters but they're still a long way off.

How bad was Hodge?

Had a few in the late 90’s gobbing off at the Heatley end . Mate turned around pointing that the cemetery was over the other side of the ground! They shut up quickly

Loving Cordy's desperation

Cordy slays three lions coming out of defence

And embeds his elbow in Berry’s head

I ****ing love Zane Cordy. He's fast becoming my favorite player of all time.

I love him more than BT loves him!

Re: WB Game Day V Brisbane Lions R8 2019

Really strong performance after an indifferent start. Bar the goal kicking accuracy in the 3rd that was as good a quarter as we can play.

Still carrying a few, but sets us up to have a crack at the best team so far in 2019 at their dump... $100 for the first one to run over the top of the motovated one.

I will fair dinkum spew up if I see one of our blokes go over before the game and shake his hand.

Wait until after the game and our blokes can boof him out in the centre circle if they want, but before the game I don't want to see any interaction unless it's one of our blokes sitting him on his arse.

Re: WB Game Day V Brisbane Lions R8 2019

How many people wrote us off at the mid way mark of the 2nd quarter?
Brisbane just refused to play direct football even in the last quarter.

I had a couple of dark thoughts in the first half (I may have even had to go for a walk out the back during the second quarter) but I always thought that we were a huge chance to win after Naughton slotted that goal on halftime.

Will Libba put friendship aside and get up in Dahl's face?

Is it just me or does anyone else love to get in the face of opposition supporters? It doesn't always need to be aggressive or obnoxious but you do need to let them know that you aren't going to put up with any crap but that doesn't mean that you have to be punching people in the face or abusing them.

They give a bit, you give a bit back then the siren goes and everyone shakes hands and gets on with life.

I have a lot of fun arguing/interacting with opposition supporters at games.

I also think that he does create some chaos. No one can predict what Billy will do next, not he even knows.

That’s the ‘Shaun Tait Effect’.

There is that great story from the Grand Final. Toward the end of the game a pack forms and Dalhaus is waiting for the umpire to bounce the ball when he becomes aware that someone is tapping him on the shoulder. He turns around to find Libba standing there and Libba just says "In a couple of minutes they are going to blow the siren and when that happens I am going to give you the biggest hug you have ever gotten!"

But I'd love to see Libba sit Dalhaus on his arse at the opening siren and just as he gets up sit him on his arse again.

I just laughed as two lions tackled him over the line and one of them looked a bit sore, Berry did not return.
He made his mark on that 2016 final series with his physicality, he stole my heart evening up that prelim. Imagine if he had an older and bigger brother?

Gowers is not sacrificing his game for Naughton. Gowers is just bad.

Even if he did how are we supposed to draft him anytime soon?

Re: WB Game Day V Brisbane Lions R8 2019

Living in Brisbane for over 22 years, I stand by my comment that overall Brisbane Lions supporters are the most obnoxious, graceless & unknowledgeable supporters going around.

Followed closely by West Coast supporters. I have had some huge run ins with them at Marvel over the years.

Me too I'm afraid to say TD although there is no shaking hands afterwards. I usually react when they run down specific players. Always have.
