A tough night for the reigning premiers. And if not for being gifted two goals from a double free kick just before half-time, it could’ve — and probably should’ve — been a more one-sided result.

It included co-captain Lachie Neale’s night brutally ending in injury, while Hugh McCluggage didn’t have “a minute to breathe the entire match” after being clamped.

We rate every Brisbane player out of 10 from their qualifying final vs Geelong.
