Brisbane show their best side as they slice and dice way into AFL grand final

The Lions were again a sight to behold after recovering from an inauspicious start against Carlton at the Gabba

The gap between Brisbane’s best and worst is bigger than any other team. When they’re even slightly off, they’re next to useless. But when the ball’s pinging, when the deck is fast, and when they’re slicing and dicing their way down the Gabba with their bullet-like, 30 metre passes, they’re a sight to behold. That’s what they unleashed on Port Adelaide a fortnight ago. And that’s what Carlton copped in the second quarter.

Josh Dunkley’s job on Patrick Cripps was pivotal. Dunkley was the youngest member of the Western Bulldogs’ 2016 premiership side. He played in a senior premiership as a 15-year-old for Sale in a strong country league. Lachie Neale says he’s the best two-way runner in football, and it’s hard to disagree on last night’s performance. Between Brisbane’s goals, Neale was spruiking for Cash Converters and carrying a tray of sundaes for McDonalds.
