Agree, they looked gone for all money halfway through the third but that was a huge comeback. Let's see if they can maintain it. Level scores.

Dimma masterclass bringing Swallow back into the team and onto the ground at the perfect time.
How goods Rowle and Anderson.
Mac Andrews take a bow for a huge pressure moment.
Played a great game too.

VFL Conspiracy for Qld Teams to wipe each other out...
Bloody southern cousins bring their game up here & force us schoolboys to play it.

[Factcheck] We Qldurrz keep hearing this Q Clash catch phrase...(Can we Google that?)
1974 AFL Schoolboy Champ Pennant apparently entitles tbb hand out complimentary Q Clash Cash Backs.
Not Joking...Best on Ground wins a 1980's AFL Gold Coast Schoolboy Medal.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QClash

[Q Clash] is the Australian rules football derby between the two Queensland-based teams in the Australian Football League (AFL), the Brisbane Lions and Gold Coast Suns

Crash Up Derby > Q Clash Derby (Something like that!)

But wait...there's more to it than that...
Because Q Clash sounds Jocular...they had to come up with daft Qldurr Names...
#Pineapple Grapple #Banana Bash #Sunshine Stoush
Any of them sound way better than [NRL Touchy Feely Magic Round]...All say Aye!

Leave it up to us Police State Hodads to make sense of yer daft game...
Here's wotz goin' on behind the Banana Curtain.

3 once GC Teams shared the same Carrara Home Ground....basically Goldie can scream for any team.
Fans back up tbb's Qldurr back up theory below.
We know we're supposed hate each other but you Victorians only gave us the one team...well durr!
It's pretty messed up but goes somethin' like this...

Southport Sharks > Dolphins > Pirates > Stingrays > Carrara Marlins > Stingrays > Gold Coast Suns
vs
Fitzroy Lions > Carrara Koalas > Carrara Cubs > Bad News Bears > Brisbane Bears > Hollandia (NSL Brisbane Lions) Lions FC > Brisbane Lions (AFL)

Just know if Goldie get ahead > Brizzos go spazz & Ref evens up the game with Penalties.
Like them 10m Advance freebies & Sin Bins...all that shit hits Goldie like a curse!
So Goldie know to play dead then slowly bring it home so the Ref don't know...don't tell them that!

*Showtime

Goldie Roadie is One day early into Faceless Enemy Territory
Inside word is it's Gonna Boil Over with on field fireworks!

Suns : "We don't care who we play, where we play, we just wanna win."
"We know our best football is good enough to beat the Premiers this weekend!"

Suns Fan : "But, even if the Suns lose, in that case... Go the Lions!” (From above/below!)

Sunscreamers are encouraged to head to the Pineapple Hotel for a pre-match catch-up from 2pm before walking to the ground from 6pm. Sunscreamers will stickytape up a supersized banner through which their team will run on to the field on Saturday to befit the occasion. Gold Coasters remaining on the coast can enjoy all the action live on the big screen at the top of Cavill Avenue in Surfers Paradise.

vs

Lions : "We're this year's wounded Final's Underdogs and we'll bounce back & give it our all!"

Lions Fan : "But if the Suns win, I’ll be a Suns fan next week.” (From above 2x!)

In something of a longstanding tradition, hundreds of punters will cram into the Brisbane German Club, a 143-year-old institution that predates the Gabba. In a packed beer hall, punters will sing along to a Bavarian cover band performing the goal celebration songs of their beloved Lions – most notably Take Me Home, Country Roads by John Denver as they quaff steins of weissbier.
“This year, every game has been absolutely wall-to-wall."

Complimentary [ Q Clash Cash Back Voucher] You won't be needing that! tbb will tear it up...All good!
