Lohmann! Immortals own!!

 

[7/11]

Heeney on 1 SC at quarter time. Swans need him to lift.

Watch him somehow end up on 90-100. Swans looking pretty similar to their gws game at the moment. Not ideal, but we know they have a gear or two that can kick into.

Didn't care who won, just wanted a good game. Not looking likely now. Lions looking good.

 

[Darkie]

Brisbane looking good

This is the culmination of what the Lions can actually play like. Best team in the comp all round on paper. Starting to finally deliver on that promise.

Let's gooooooo Brissie!

Can't believe Blakey didn't even seem to be assessed for concussion after that first quarter hit. Reckon that might draw some attention from AFL house.

Currently looks like the least of the Swans worries though...

I wouldn’t have bothered either if there wasn’t a free kick given for that contact. Looks bad for not checking though, I’m sure someone will be asked to explain.

Logan McDonald subbed.

Well done Daniher

Logan McDonald subbed.

Somewhat ironic we omitted Mills, under an injury cloud, and then selected McDonald who had an equally risky injury.

I tell my wife, every year, you need to know who he is, its part of the citizenship questionnaire! 🤣
She might remember by then! For context she has lived here 23 years 🤣

Just give him 3 encores every year. You can tell the crowd don’t have any time for Katy Perry’s antics. Just not the right type of performance for an Aussie sporting event.

Its getting the non footy folks to watch, hopefully, the game as well. For me, I thought she rocked, can’t keep going to the same well of 80’s Aussie acts! Except Mike Brady🤣

Too be fair, He got the ball a few times and had a run, straight after that hit, so hard to catch him 🤣

I was just contemplating whether it was the second time in three years that Sydney started a forward under an injury cloud in a grand final, and had to substitute them early.

Hard to know how bad it was going into the game though.

Nice grab!

I saw a tweet, sorry cant remember from who, that McDonald didn’t do a lot for their training run at the same time Mills, from all accounts, had a fairly hard fitness test.

The worst thing about it, is that McDonald is actually not very good. Doesn’t add a lot to our forward line.

Our midfield and defence being found out big time today. Think I called this way back in may when we were on our streak. It’s sad to be this right.
