    Game Day Pr(O)logue Round, 2024 - Brisbane Lions vs. Carlton

    It must be due to the hangover from being the reigning NAB cup champions.

    Review Preliminary Final, 2023 - Brisbane Lions vs. Carlton

    Took my son to his first finals game. He had a blast and was right into it. Refused to wear a shirt under his guernsey or put a jumper over top even though he was clearly cold.

    Lions Finals Ticketing Information - No more Collingwood supporters seeking tickets!

    Hi mate, I would like them if available and will be super appreciative. I got delayed travelling when the tickets went up and missed out. Was shattered because it was going to be my son's first time going to a finals match. Let me know how to get in contact.

    Review Round 17, 2023 - Brisbane Lions vs. West Coast

    On the umpires, at the game I thought I saw the West Coast ruck take the ball out of the ruck and then get tackled without a free kick being awarded. Is that still a rule?

    Training 2023 Pre-season thread

    It's a lower case s. Nothing to do with the Suns. It's referring to the sun, as in the sun in Brisbane has been good for Charlie.

    She didn't write the article.

    Play Nice Hawthorn culture and Fagan

    The time scale of this matter is going to be years. The AFL doesn't get to arbitrarily decide the venue where this issue gets aired out. The parties either agree a venue, or they will end up in a court of law / government inquiry. Amy didn't choose who got named in the article. That was a...

    Does anyone know how long Hawthorne had the report before the story broke?

    Play Nice Hawthorn culture and Fagan

    My biggest worry with how the story has been broken is what happens if/when some allegations are proven false or over exaggerated. My opinion is that there is at least a grain of truth in each allegation. However, the mob reaction to parts thereof being disproven is likely to be vicious. This...

    Based on what I've seen from Fagan he will honestly engage with the inquiry. If he has been culturally insensitive at any time I expect he will own up to it and apologise. If he was responsible for overseeing someone else who is guilty, I expect he will apologize for not knowing and...

    Or I can take the view that 24 hours is not a reasonable period to respond and feel sympathy for Fagan. The pressure involved in these situations is immense. The story is important, there is an issue that needs to be addressed. But delaying publication by days or even a couple of weeks wasn't...

    Journalists are rewarded for breaking a story. This incentivised them to minimise the time that other parties can interfere or respond. Just because 24 hours is standard doesn't make it right. There are lots of things that have been "standard" that are not morally right.

    Play Nice Hawthorn culture and Fagan

    Journalists are the only ones who think 24 hours to respond is reasonable. 24 hours depending on when it is raised is barely enough time to engage a lawyer. I always take it with a pinch of salt as to what it means when a party has been "requested to comment" or "did not respond". You can't...

    Non-Lions discussion 2022

    He'd be crazy to do it even with the money. Expectations on him and the team would be unrealistic.

    Non-Lions discussion 2022

    Clarko is on record saying he's only coming back to coach if he thinks he can win another premiership.
