Round 1: Brisbane Lions Reserves v Sydney Swans Reserves @ Gabba

Thanks ugg, top job as usual.
Does anyone know how Aliir came to score a goal?

I think he kicked it between the big sticks. Ok maybe its just me that thinks I'm funny?

You've seen too many NAB commercials.....

I smiled.
But if we're training him as a defender, I'm curious to know how this happened. And did he look as if he had a decent action?

Use your imagination dimelb! I'd like to think he took the kick in, then hared off straight down the ground as Dick, Biggs, Lloyd transfer the ball in quick succession. Finally BJ puts up a league style bomb to the top of the square allowing Aliir to fly with the momentum to sit on a shocked Matt
Maguire juggling it with his head before hitting a sweet volley that pierces the midpoint of the big sticks

That'll have to do until Tuesday anyway

Ugg has done himself proud over on BF. Maybe he thinks it was too lowbrow for RWO...? (It was - is - quite amusing.)

Ugg doesn't post on BF

What puns? I was genuinely excited for Dick. Named in the best only once in 17 games last year, so far 1/1 this year!

Some snippets from the lions match report

Reserves Wrap: Round 1

According the their coach Harding, the Lions only had 10 inside 50s to half-time while the Swans had "40-odd".
McStay and Gardiner rotated on Membrey and Towers.
Looks like they were short of a ruckman (Maguire had to pinch-hit) against our two specialists.

[Ludwig]

That's a good wrap by Leigh Harding. We should have something like that at the Swans.

Ugg, you should offer your services as a Nom de Plume for Crouchy. You could probably even earn a few bucks for it, if not for Buddy's contract.

It is rather mundane. I prefer my version.

Lol..he certainly doesn't lack spunk.

He is destined to become loved by Swans fans and hated by oppo fans, a bit like the 'Tasty Cheese' from Freo...

He made it look a lot easier than the seniors did.
