Just listened to the first half of Collingwood v Richmond and regret to say I'm starting to both admire and resent the Pies, whose list is certainly no better than ours, for displaying the sort of fortitude we either can't or wont...well consistently anyway.

Unfortunately I will be surrounded by my wife's workmates who are all Lions fans... except for a French couple who haven't been to a game before. Hopefully I can convince them to support the Dogs...but with the Lions song the music to the French national anthem I could be fighting a losing battle..

Good first half.

Moving the ball well and finding more space that we have in recent weeks. Running in waves with some good run, handball and carry.

Need to keep running hard and deny them any space in their 50m for their twin towers.

As per usual being exposed on the counter, giving them acres of space in Pagans paddock, need to chase hard the other way.

DOG GOD
15-08-2009, 08:32 PM
tackling and pressure is very good. need to keep that up, and make the most of any set shots we get. The run MUST continue, and the kicking into the fwd line needs to be precise. Cant afford turnovers in the middle of the ground to allow their "pagans paddock" to take effect, as their fwd line seems to have ample room for brown and bradshaw to move.

Geez Picken makes a difference to our tackling.

15-08-2009, 08:33 PM
Who is shagging who out of Dunstall and Lynch, its a comical commentary, everything they do is fantastic everything we do is average, we are, as said previously winning and have doubled thier score FFS!
Speaking of comical the Johnno mark, glad to see the umpire used his head and knew if in anyway johnno could have a kick at goal he would have!

Now theres a thought , get two trainers to run out to a player so the opposition think he is injured and leave him be, then he escapes from the trainers on his own!
Great tactical work from Eade.

The Coon Dog
15-08-2009, 08:34 PM
Some really good tackling so far.

Boydy, Boydy, Boydy, what were you thinking, in fact you weren't, just held onto it & for some unknown reason didn't move it forward & then turned it over when trying to handball. Goal to Bradshaw as a result.

Nice long bombs for goal by Gilbee & Eagleton for goals (2 each).

Chris Grant did this in the elim v Collingwood a few years back.

We were kicking in and Grant was with the trainers carrying a shoulder. Collingwood don't man up, Chris takes off, marks the kick-in and kicks to the wing.

I was about 5 metres away from that, as Johhno came up to slap my wifes hand as she was leaning over the fence.
The Lion supporters are in general a disgrace.
There was this one bloke sitting behind me who was with his young family, and for no reason during the 1st quarter started yelling out that Johnno was a soft c%ck, and a complete down hill skiier.. mixed in with several very colourful comments. I said to him that that was uncalled for and that Johnno could never be labelled soft... The guy then launched into a tirade directed at me that "not only was Johnno a d1ckhead but anyone who thought otherwise was a complete d$%khead..."

Thankfully his wife then told him how disgraceful he was being and he clammed up..
The Lions supporters are shockers.

Agreed made a few errors with the ball but attack on footy was good. There was a time Reid got the ball in the last quarter in the half back line & he took 5 minutes to get rid of the ball & coughed it up, he must of thought he was playing for Willy for a minute there. I'm sure his awarness will get better with every game.

I think Boyd has shown that with dedication and hard work, it can be improved.
Boydy was an average user of the ball for a fair bit of his career, but in the last 3 years has improved his ball usage between 5 & 10%.
So I guess as long as Reid is 'teachable' he can improve in this area.

Is that something that can be remedied with constant coaching, or is it just too late at his age?
There is nothing fundamentally wrong with Reid's disposal but it's the decisions around the ones under pressure. I think it can be fixed.

Williams apparently troubled by what Smithy's calling a "foot"...and Lakey with a hammy twinge.

Handy start...but Brissy killed themselves with turnovers that quarter.

So they called the foot injury that early in the game? (I was at Etihad watching ignoring most of the Victory game in the Whitten Bar while watching the Dogs on a volume-less tv...I did manage to see both Hernandez goals live)

Picture of the team song in the Hun this morning shows a smiling Williams with both boots still on and no crutches...I know that may not mean that much, but I like to kid myself that that's a positive, especially if he's played out the game on it.

Just saw Mooney clip a Swan on the highlights from last night - if Williams has to miss a week (I hope it's not much longer) another Mooney brain explosion would work well.

Love for Harbrow & Aka.....again. Jase, play on next year PLEASE

Heard that Williams was given an injection after the injury, which allowed him to come back on

Suppose he will be given a scan and we will find out the extent of his injury...hope its nothing

At leave we wont be playing Hawthorn with Buddy and Roughead

Didnt hear anything about Lake's hamstring, it looked like he got an eye injury in the 4th quarter though

Reid, Murph and Johno all got leg/thing injuries

Maybe Higgins and Gia back this week

Cross the next

Lets pray we have an injury free few weeks + finals

Contact between the Brisbane Lions’ Jonathan Brown and the Western Bulldogs’ Brian Lake during the fourth quarter of Saturday nights’ match was assessed. Due to the inconclusive nature of the video evidence, no further action could be taken.


What a joke.

What happened? I'm not sure I can recall the specific incident?

Behind the play, Lake had is hands up against his eye, obviously in some distress, so something happened to him. The closest player was Brown, but some how there is no footage. I thought there was a camera directly behind then goals, so should have captured what happened.

They mentioned it on sen tonight while i was driving home, that she wasnt a member, but she did ring both clubs to say sorry.

If the Lions say "that there was "zero tolerance" for any objects being thrown onto the field at players" then she has to be banned and fined, if shes not then they obviously think its ok to throw beer at players....
