To complement the long-running Fitzroy video thread on the Roys board, thought it might be time for a compilation thread for old timey Bears/Lions matches/highlights/interviews etc found on the yoochoob.
1996 Qualifying Final (first finals match at Gabba)
1991 AFL Reserves Grand Final...
Can't find if this thread otherwise exists, if it does, mods, do your thing.
Anyhoo...
Dunno whether this fixture is official, but we'll go with it for now...
Fixtureless as yet, but with some pertinent news out of HQ, thought I might start the new season's ressies thread.

The fixture has been released (finally) http://www.neafl.com.au/fileadmin/user_upload/_temp_/2017_NEAFL_Fixture.pdf
Lions have 0 home games at the Gabba and 7 and the brand spankin' South Pine Sports Complex to fill in any gaps amongst our 11 away games.
We have three games each against the...
Getting in early for next season!
2016 NEAFL fixture
Unless I've miscounted or misread, we only get 7 home games :confused: : 5 at the Gabba (!), 1 at Yeronga and 1 at Burpen-flopping-gary.
Go us!
Thoroughly enjoyed Clarko's segment on this week's On The Couch, in particular suggested remedy for the 'congestion malaise' currently afflicting football. 'Don't change any rules, just pay free kicks and open up the play'. Whoda thunk it!?
Seen it Skoob ?
Tomorrow night (June 9) on Fox Footy. Should be well worth the watch.
PS Wonder whether Mike will ever pluck up the courage to invite DHL onto his program...
Hi there guys and gals.
I've been enticed into doing the Movember thing this year. As I'm sure everyone is already aware, the Movember campaign is to raise funds and awareness in the men's health issues department.
If you're inclined to help out, please visit my page and make any sort of...
Hi all. Just received a message from Bryce's Dad and he asked me to pass this on to everyone here.
'Retzy wants to send a massive thank-you to all the wonderful and positive well-wishers. He is overwhelmed by all the support and wants to say how much he appreciates it.'
:footy:
I've seen it noted a few times of late that Little Bradley Gotch played some 20 senior games in the #57 guernsey. Example 1 Example 2 Example 3. I can't, for the life of me, remember him wearing it once!
You'll see LBG (on debut) run across the screen about 18 seconds into this clip wearing his...
Well, the 2011 NEAFL (:o) fixture is done. =436&tx_ttnews[backPid]=4&cHash=354f3abd88"]Link to story. Might have to wait 'til they fix up their own link to get to the nitty gritty.
An excerpt:
"Unbalanced draw" springs to mind.
I've recently been handed a few old 70s-vintage family slides that my brother had managed to salvage. A handful of them were taken at The Junction. Thought I'd share 'em with yers.

Anyone heard any whispers about what the bottom line might be for 2009?
And is it kosher having a member of the board also the MD of the major sponsor?
Just askin'.
What are the games that continue to bug you to this day? Days when their was a big prize in the offing for a victory, but for one reason or another we just couldn't pull it off.
There are two obvious finals contenders which everyone would probably nominate, so let's keep to home and away...
Captions, please.
Let's find out who is the best prospective sub-editor amongst the Brisbane Lions BigFooty fraternity. :)

Thought they were more determined, more disciplined and harder at the footy. Beat us at our own game, really.
We didn't handle the conditions too well. Continually played from behind when kicking into the wind. Thought the play-the-defensive-side-of-the-ground-at-all-costs strategy was too...
It's been four months coming, but today the BRITS were finally, and proudly, able to announce that RICHARD HADLEY is our sponsored player for season 2004.
After inspiring Ash McGrath to stunning heights in 2003, the BRITS wish Sir Richard many further successes in 2004.
Footnote: the...
I said in another thread - and I still haven't changed my opinion on the issue, btw - that Llane is a long way off being ready for senior footy.
Well, the good news is the Spaanderman today produced what was easily his most convincing display in Lions colours.
Playing against what is...
With only nine listed players in the squad, the Lions pushed reigning champs Morningside all the way but ultimately went down by 9 points 9.19 to 10.2.
It's fair to say Morningside controlled the play after quarter time, and with better conversion would have had a comfortable win, however the...
