Today's live stream of Geelong vs Brisbane will be the third time in the last five years that the two sides have met in an AFL Qualifying Final The Lions are basking in the afterglow of a logic-free victory, but Geelong coach Chris Scott was dressed in Brisbane maroon when they beat the Cats in the last final

That was 20 years ago, and the memory of being 71 points behind Geelong two years ago is still fresh Last Saturday, Brisbane was gutted to turn over a 44-point deficit against GWS, while their opponents were putting their feet up in the middle of a two-week layoff

Aside from the physical aspect, the mental impact may well define this AFL prelim The Lions will rely heavily on two-time Brownlow Medal winner Lacey Neal, but how much can they rely on Cam Rayner? The Cats will sniff a little uncertainty at the MCG
