Brisbane Lions | 1999 Qualifying Final vs Carlton (All Goals)

First final of the Matthews Era saw the Lions (third) host Carlton (sixth) in the last year of the sensationally nonsensical McIntyre Finals System.
Quiz: which of the following teams would line up for the Grand Final three weeks after this game?
Team A: last re-entered the 8 in R17, won just 12 games, and was lambasted in this game by 73 points
Team B: won its last 8 H&A games + its first 2 finals, won 16 games and had the best percentage in the comp (18% better than next-best Essendon)
Team A, inexplicably.
Lions have their way in this one, despite losing Vossy 10 mins in (torn ligaments in his left ankle meant he missed the second prelim of his career). An 8-goals-to-1 3Q pushed the lead to as much as 82 points. The 1999 Lions were a force.

Carlton flogged by 10+ goals and not only gets to stay in the finals but also got a home final next week because of the MCG having to host a game every week of the finals
