G’day Lions fans — this week on The Lowdown, Ash unpacks the soggy mess that was the AFL Q-Clash and the morning delight that was the VFL edition. The seniors copped a 66-point hammering down the highway, and yep, it stung — but don’t throw your scarf in the fire just yet.
From selection misfires to midfield mayhem and a glaring lack of in-game adjustments, Ash breaks down where things went wrong — and why one brutal loss doesn’t spell the end of a premiership campaign.
We go deep into the numbers, the social media reactions, and the form of past premiers to put it all in perspective.
Plus, a spirited second-half VFL comeback win provides a glimmer of hope and shows that a fire still burns strongly within the four walls of the club.
