    Is this a game that's worth reporting? Man, what a stomping!



    I guess though, like last night, it's more about the individual efforts and team plan as a whole, rather than the 100+ margain



    Still, it's tough to get too much out of a game that see's one team playing 4 guys who have played more than 50 games, and the other team, coming off a premiership.



    Biggest news for mine: Suckling is back! 19 disposals, 70SC and a couple of cracks on goal. Great to see him back out on the park.



    Mitchell is probably already locked into everyone's backline, and the ease at which he racked it up tonight should only solidify that. 33 disposals and 118SC was a tidy return for the premium defender.



    Gunston will be suddenly on a lot of radar's, with Buddy gone, the big fella stepped up kicking the first two goals of the game, with 5 in total. Tackled well as well, and cracked the ton with a 102SC.



    Every man and his dog this morning seems to want to talk about Rioli and his work in defence. Personally, he can play where he wants- he's still got a big black injury-threat line through his name!



    Over on the Lions side, with *so* many players missing, it's bloody tough to make any real calls.



    Aish looked good, which makes me happy. Perhaps not good enough for the premium price tag, but it was his first hit out, and without Brisbanes actual team around him, there was an obvious class difference between him in his first game and well, the premiers. Still, 14 touches and 53SC for the youngster.
