If this was still the era before online tickets, Lions fans could head to their nearest Bass outlet for their preliminary finals ticket – the Lions are home.
QClash 30 is going to finish like many before it – a handsome win for the Lions.
Chris Fagan’s men have dominated this match since the opening few minutes of the game. They’ve smashed the Suns at stoppage and clearance, limited the influence of John Noble and Dan Rioli, leaving their opposition with little else to throw at them.
Quiet last week, Hugh McCluggage is back to his best. Will Ashcroft was pivotal to their charge in the second quarter.
Josh Dunkley has done the job on Matt Rowell, who has battled hard but lacked punch at stoppage.
Dayne Zorko has been brilliant across half-back. His preparedness to bite off the dangerous kick into the middle has symbolised the bravery of the Lions. Cam Rayner and Zac Bailey have been dangerous.
For the Suns, they hardly have a winner. Hopefully for them, they can fight it out and not disgrace themselves in David Swallow’s final game.
