Roar Deal interviewed Jake Hanson, who is lions manager of Springfield development.
He said that he'd seen options suggested on bigfoooty re during Olympics development. Lol. Maybe you Springfield conversationalist have contributed something to the development.
If you are looking for some out of the box listening material in the lull between the footy season and trade week/draft time, could be worth catching up on Brownys Podcast with Jonathan and Campbell being ridiculously loose. Definitely no holds barred and bit of listener discretion required but I had a few laughs. Mitch Robinsons interview last week was fun too - apparently he got JB to skoll a beer on face time for the Lions boys during Mad Monday... at 10am. Oh, and strong language warning!
never listened to a podcast. where d0 I find it?
Anybody know what happened to the Brisbane Lions Supporters Podcast? Enjoyed having a listen each week then it disappeared last season, hope the two guys that were running it are doing alright.
Pretty sure they said on one of them that they weren't continuing it. just didn't have the time etc.
Yeah RU_ ran it with Patfulnkez (I think she has since changed her username) and me, with a guest from the opposition. It was a bit of fun but I think the amount of time required was too much for RU at the time so we never continued.Mooch didn't you used to do it?
Yeah there was a surprisingly large amount of effort in that haha.Yeah RU_ ran it with Patfulnkez (I think she has since changed her username) and me, with a guest from the opposition. It was a bit of fun but I think the amount of time required was too much for RU at the time so we never continued.

Mitch Robertson mentioned something similar about Wilmot and Lohmann in his podcast today.Dayne Zorko, Lions preseason heats up
We check in with Dayne Zorko of the Brisbane Lions as we continue to check in on the footy clubs as the preseason heats up!player.whooshkaa.comRAYNER, WILMOT, MCCLUGGAGE EARLY STAND OUTS – ZORKO
Brisbane skipper Dayne Zorko says that rising star Cam Rayner is set for a more permanent role in Brisbane’s midfield rotation, with the 22-year-old primed for 2022 after a knee injury last season.
Rayner missed the entire 2021 season after tearing his ACL in a pre-season match in March.
“(Rayner) has slimmed down a lot, from what I’ve seen he hasn’t lost his power,” said Zorko on RSN Breakfast Club.
“(It was) something he needed to do to get into the midfield and spend a lot more time in there.”
Zorko is expecting a strong year from the 2017 #1 pick, who looked prime for a big 2021 after a second Best and Fairest placing in 2020.
“We really missed him last year,” said Zorko.
Star wingman Hugh McCluggage is standing out on the training track according to his captain, his fitness “on a different level” to other players.
Zorko also spoke to Daniel Harford and Adam White about Brisbane’s youth, which had led to high-quality depth at the football club.
The likes of Deven Robertson (16 games played in 2021) and Jaxon Prior (18 games) were highlighted as players making the most out of Brisbane’s injury crisis last season.
Adding to the young brigade are first-round draftees Darcy Wilmot and Kai Lohmann, who have added “spunk and x-factor” to the Lions.
Wilmot in particular has turned heads at Brisbane, with the youngest player in the 2021 draft having already made headlines following a priceless post-draft interview.
I can’t remember a first-year player ever getting up in front of a group in his first session and talking, but Darcy did that straight away,” said Zorko.
“It sort of raises a few eyebrows…but that’s just him.”
Wilmot was drafted from the Northern Knights at Pick 16, and will likely be used across half back as a running playmaker and interceptor.
Zorko says he won’t be surprised if Wilmot and Lohmann, as well as later pick James Tunstill, get an introduction to AFL football early in the season.
“We got extremely lucky in the draft this year, from what I’ve seen,” said Zorko.
“We’ve taken players in the past that have been a bit within themselves, whereas these guys have come in and gone bang straight away.”
“(They) have done a few things on the field that make me feel really old.”
Why leave a Victorian club? That's where everyone should want to play. FU** Barrett
Yes pretty much is in that article, just my overall dislike for him showing through.I thought he was just bagging the whole system?
I thought it was a pretty reasonable conclusion though played up a bit. I'm sure there wasn't a secret deal or anything but a little possible plan to extend if year 1 goes well wouldn't have been too sneaky. 3 year deal for an AA level key forward did seem slightly odd at the time and to be honest I thought it was good risk management and strategy by the Lions (within the rules) to offer a shorter contract that also meant we got Joe without having to stump up at the trade table. But also Barrett definitely has prat attributes!!Mendacious prat.
