Stafford’s take
The Lions are looking much better this quarter. Cam Rayner’s two in the term have nudged them in front, and that’s a deserved goal by Lincoln McCarthy in his (very hard-earned) 150th game. What a superb finish.
At ground level, though, it’s it’s Josh Dunkley’s physicality and Hugh McCluggage’s touch that’s dragged them back into the contest.
