AFL Finals Fixture 2024: Brisbane Stages an Incredible Comeback
AFL Finals Fixture 2024: Key Match Ups
The match-up of Jack Payne returning from a knee injury on Jesse Hogan is looking very shaky indeed from the Lions’ point of view. It’s half-time here. Hogan sprayed a couple of shots in that quarter, but has three goals and, more worryingly, six marks already.
Individual Excellence
- The Giants have done a brilliant job of curtailing the Lions’ strengths.
- Lachie Neale is trying to assert himself, but Toby Bedford is restricting his influence.
- Dayne Zorko finds himself equally challenged by James Peatling, who has also kicked a couple of goals.
Crucial Battles
But maybe the most critical battle, which I mentioned pre-game, is Toby Greene on Brandon Starcevich. Greene is ripping it apart, having kicked two goals and assisted another from seven disposals.
AFL Finals Fixture 2024 exposes the issue of inaccuracy haunting the Lions. They’ve kicked 4.10. The Giants have missed their share of shots too, but their efficiency inside 50 sits at 69% to 52%, showcasing the biggest difference in the game.
