Brisbane Lions vs Geelong Cats Preview
The Brisbane Lions fell agonisingly close at the MCG last Friday, losing by the smallest margin possible against Melbourne.
They will feel like it was a missed opportunity after leading by over four goals at three quarter time and potentially costing them a chance at finishing in the top two, and therefore not leaving The Gabba until Grand Final day.
The Cats are marking a charge into September, and they have not lost in the last four rounds.
This included a draw of course, but if any team outside the current top four could give things a shake, it’s the defending premier.
Brisbane are simply a better side at The Gabba but Geelong has covered the line in 12 of their last 14 games against the Lions.
