Lions' dramatic turnaround



Good ol Nathan Freeman.

Collingwood must've chucked him into the Beams deal as a sweetener, and no one noticed.

Surely, surely that is a misquote, rather than Schwabby forgetting a player's name.

Lions' dramatic turnaround



Good ol Nathan Freeman.

Did Derrwayne write that article? Said the same thing when the Lions were celebrating their win against the Pies.

At least he didn't call him Jason Freeman.

 

[Dylan12]

Did I hear correctly that the "sub" is no more i.e. reverting back to a four man bench?

 

[James North]

At least he didn't call him Jason Freeman.

Starting to think Paul Schwab might need to use the "Reminders" function on his iPhone more often.

Having been a favourite of many on the football field, Brisbane Lions legend Jonathan Brown is now at the centre of a tug of war between the television broadcasters.

No surprise.

From a selfish point of view, it's probably better for us if he goes to Seven. It's good to have an advocate on free to air media.

Not as many programmes on "The home of AFL" though (well, not up here anyway). From a selfish point of view, he is a better chance of Lions games broadcasts if he is at Fox. I don't have Fox, but Brisbane gets all games on FTA and therefore the Fox telecasts as well. Would love his comments on our games.

What a joke. ARU is a shambles.

 

[Big Sauce 21]

someone get up the list of experience lost through out the year for us in injuries and mail it to the collingwood board. They think they were hard done by haha

 

[Dylan12]

In terms of a "mature" rookie; is that a new rookie classification outside of Category A and B rookies?

What actually is the classification in terms of age / games played etc. Was Zac O'Brien ours last year or am I mixing up what is and isn't a "mature" rookie?

I've only really noticed the term used lately i.e. Schneider (StK), possibly Raines and/or Broughton (GCS).

Huge thanks to the Brisbane Lions for their huge support of The End of the Line Festival this year... A community street festival in The Gabba wouldn't make sense without them!!! They'll have players coming across the road to do signings, photos and helping the kiddies (& adults) with the AFL Inflatable Activities in Jurgens Street! #brisbanelions

Just noticed that we're the Pentonville Rd of AFL monopoly. Seems about right I guess.

Was trying to work out how they decided on the order. Membership numbers perhaps?

Feels like they're trying to say something...

Roughly yeah. They correspond to what my guess of membership/supporter numbers would be.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Geez they really phoned it in on that monopoly game didn't they.

Interesting that the 'Go to Jail' is pointing directly at West Coast.

 

[POBT]

Free parking at the footy? Bullshit.

 

[whatboutbob]

Clustered around Richmond and Brownlow ta boot.

 

[jasonrampage2010]

"You've landed on Richmond. Go directly to ninth, do not pass ninth, do not collect Premiership".

 

[Mr Ripper]

You can build hotels if you acquire North Melbourne, you're just not allowed to install pokies.

 

[Skoob]

"You've landed on Collingwood. Go directly to Centrelink, do not pass the cop shop, collect cans".

 

[Skoob]

You've landed on Essendon, go directly to ASADA, do not pass urine, do not cop your whack.

 

[WhiteLionFeva]

I hear instead of Melbourne FC they have Community Chest.
