    Play Nice Happy 10th Anniversary (of the Essendon/ASADA Saga)

    The competency or rather lack there of ny ASADA is well known. WADA were unhappy with NRL deal as well, but because the deal involved all players admitting guilt, WADA appealing the deal done would've likely failed as penalty administered (even if very light) ASADA & Australian sport have a...

    Politics Meghan Markle and Prince Harry - Racially Villified or Royally Unpopular?

    Harry need to attend in case he wants out from Meghan. He's as popular inside royal family as Randy Andy right now and that is unlikely to change. But Harry also knew once Liz died and William became Prince of Wales & George gets older, the role for him would've become less and less until he...

    Play Nice Happy 10th Anniversary (of the Essendon/ASADA Saga)

    The approach used in AFL appointed panel was incorrect under the WADA code, hence the WADA appeal to CAS that was successful. The panel were badly advised and wrong people chosen.

    Fixture 2022 Fixture for the Lions

    Bit over dramatic, but club has just prioritised maximising Gabba revenue and dropped the ball completely on Vic members by giving no attention to them or anything they may want & its reflected in fixture

    Fixture 2022 Fixture for the Lions

    I'd say don't care and rather push for big clubs at Gabba & hope Vic members suck up being screwed over time & time again.

    2nds 2021 VFL and East Coast Second-Tier Competition

    Lions & Suns need to seriously sit down with Southport and work this out. The VFL is going backwards and rapidly. Players don't want the travel so leaving for metro/country leagues and getting more money too. Go back into QAFL, but get Suns & Lions to heko subsidise other teams to build up the...

    Fixture 2022 Fixture for the Lions

    Vic fans completely screwed and club doesnt give a s**t. Equal fewest games in Melbourne of any club. As for claims of the 5th Victorian game, when a Vic membership again includes games at Geelong, then we can count it, its no different than saying Suns at Metricon is a home game for Lions...

    Club Focus Brisbane Lions 2021 - Fort, Wilmot, Lohmann, Tunstill

    I think a few forget Mitch is going into what is likely his last season, whilst Zorko has only a couple more left.

    Recommitted Lachie Neale [OOC 2023 - Will honour his contract]

    Problem with offloading Lobb is his contract, Freo going to have to chip in some because no-one will pay him $750k a year

    Recommitted Lachie Neale [OOC 2023 - Will honour his contract]

    Suns have been blocked by AFL to trade the priority pick they were given, suspect going to ne rescinded, so 19 is off the table.

    Traded Patrick Lipinski traded to Collingwood for Pick #43

    Don't believe West will make it, 3 years and never been able to string together a few games. No better than Lipinski and has less trade value. Garcia agree has shown more and if get a VFL season will help him develop, also need to find way to weights room in off season

    Traded Patrick Lipinski traded to Collingwood for Pick #43

    With speculation about Treloar possibly moving to Qld as wife wants to move permanently for her netball career it would change where Lipinski sits in Bulldogs needs. So expect things to change a few time between now abd trade time

    Tasmania Congratulations on Tassie License. Mens team to enter 2028. Womens team TBA. Other details TBA 3/5

    Tasmania needs to pull all sponsorship from AFL, let's see how they go replacing the lost sponsorship, membership & merchandise income. Then everyone will realise the numbers stack up for Tassie more than GWS or Suns

    Rumour Jon Patton

    He's been doing this same s**t for a decade and only now when publicly outed cares about it and feels mental anguish. Come on wake up and smell the roses

    Rumour Jon Patton

    Maybe don't act like a dickhead and people won't think you're a piece of crap human being. He's been doing this for years, its not new, just now it's public and he has to suddenly do something AFL players have a huge issue with, taking responsibility for their actions.

    Rumour Jon Patton

    And bang on cue, the mental health card is played to try and shut up the media. The AFL use mental health as an excuse to silence the media. This isnt mental health, its the AFL trying to do damage control, AFL only see mental as a useful tool for damage limitation like the dodgy corrupt...

    List Mgmt. 2020 Trade Watch

    Witho is surplus to requirements and around 450-500k i believe. Eagles want him let him go, take a draft pick and get new contracts done for McCluggage & Rayner. Smart list management means letting some players go to avoid a salary cap crush, like Pies have now

    List Mgmt. Morning, Joe! (was The Daniher (Probably Mega-)thread)

    The key I think in Daniher getting to Lions easily will be what the AFL secret formula comes up with. Pick 7 and reckon Essendon will take it, pick 20 and they will match and force a trade.

    Rumour Rhyce Shaw in Hospital, won’t coach again: NO Trolling, cheap shots, or jokes will be Tolerated

    The real question needs to be asked of the North Melbourne board, did they have the right support around him? Something happened during the year that saw a split in the club, what caused it needs to be known and fixed otherwise North will not recover.

    Are Essendon capable of addressing their issues?

    The real question that must be asked at Essendon is why are so many players unhappy? If it is tangible in the coach or someone else in the club the get rid of that person, everyone is expendable, but when the majority of the playing group aren't happy its pretty clear its no a few rotten eggs in...

    How Victoria is tracking for easing of restrictions - 19 Oct

    I doubt a 14 day average of 5 is even realistically obtainable. Victoria is on track to have a third world economy before getting out of restrictions and to some level of normality as the premier is refusing to listen to anyone except his chosen advisors even though there are a growing number of...

    The Soft Cap, Reduced lists, Reserves etc

    Can survive, but will require players to take cuts to wages. The flow on of another season with limited crowds is it will be hard for clubs to sell membership packages and corporate packages. Fans may of taken not going this year as a one off, but ask them to pay again next year and not be able...

    2020 AFL Crowds & Ratings Thread

    What is the actual definition of reaching in this sense? There's a lot of grey in that and clearly being used as spin to make it look better. But given lockdown and fact people aren't going out as much, these numbers aren't as good as they are making out .

    2020 AFL Crowds & Ratings Thread

    When you include regional areas the gap isn't as large as it appears when you only see 5 major city numbers. But it is also a question of return on investment, something that Channel 7 and Foxtel both had been failing to get up until now from the current rights, hence why both have serious...

    2nds 2020 Lions Reserves and NEAFL thread

    Death of the NEAFL has been coming for a while, COVID situation has just brought it forward. There were more former teams of the NEAFL last season than current teams which says it all. The question is will their be an expanded VFL, a full national reserves comp will not happen as SA and WA...

    List Mgmt. 2020 Trade Watch

    Comparing Rayner to Rowell is stupid and people doing it do not understand the draft. You can only compare Rayner to players in the same draft as him and realistically only to the top 5 of the draft as he was clearly rated at the time as one of the top 3 picks. Pick 2 - Andrew Brayshaw, club...
