Brisbane coach Michael Voss challenges his Lions to provide a contest against Sydney Lions coach Michael Voss has challenged his team to work hard against Sydney. Picture Jono Searle Source: The Courier-Mail BRISBANE coach Michael Voss says there will be no such thing as an honourable loss when the Lions take on Sydney at the SCG this Sunday. Brisbane are heavy underdogs for the clash with the reigning premiers. The Lions have lost their past five clashes with Sydney with their last success against the Bloods coming in Round 22, 2009. Brisbane put the lowly Melbourne to the sword last Sunday and despite the significant step-up in class this weekend, Voss says the Lions must aim high. "A pass mark is always a W (win)...there's only ever one pass mark when it comes to football," Voss said before training today. So as far as we're concerned that will be what happens in the end, all we can do is make sure we provide a contest, and that's where it starts. Sydney has won four of its five starts in 2013 without getting into top gear but Voss has the utmost respect for the home side. "I'm certainly not going to say anything to fire them up, but while they haven't won as convincingly or got out of the blocks as much as you'd expect, they're still a good football team and they build their wins over the course of four quarters," Voss said. For us it's about being able to have that same commitment and attitude and being able to go the distance. Veteran midfielder Simon Black trained with the reserves at the Gabba this morning and will play one more match in the NEAFL in his comeback from a knee injury.
