Pearce Hanley celebrates for Brisbane Lions
Pearce Hanley was to the fore as the Brisbane Lions sent Zach Tuohy's Carlton to the bottom of the AFL table on Saturday.
Mayo's Hanley, who is the Brisbane vice-captain, bagged two goals as the Lions cruised to a 131-67 victory at the Gabba. Both Hanley and Tuohy collected 14 possessions each, but the Laois man failed to get on the scoresheet.
The Lions had been on an 11-match losing streak before Saturday's result, which leaves Carlton as the basement side with only three matches of the home and away season remaining.
