    Preview Brisbane Lions v GWS Giants Round 7 (Thursday 25 April ANZAC DAY 7:35PM @ Manuka Oval)

    Maybe time for a bit of Sun Tzu or Friedrich Nietzsche. Tzu -- a victorious army wins the war then goes to battle, the losing army goes to battle and hopes to win the war. Nietzsche -- Will to power. The continual effort to overcome, overcoming the obstacles that get in the way and overcoming...

    Preview Brisbane Lions v GWS Giants Round 7 (Thursday 25 April ANZAC DAY 7:35PM @ Manuka Oval)

    I think we'll comeback strong v Giants. Taylor, Greene, Coniglio, out definitely an advantage. Big O and Lyons out, Fort n Mckenna in, Tunstill back to sub, are the only changes necessary.

    Preview Brisbane Lions v GWS Giants Round 7 (Thursday 25 April ANZAC DAY 7:35PM @ Manuka Oval)

    I feel a bit gutted for Dev. This was the year I believe that he could have really cemented himself in the 22 before the return of Ashcroft. The wrist injury delaying his preseason and now a dislocated shoulder keeping him out for at least a month. Poor bugger. Seems to be a bit of a story of...

    Review Round 6, 2024 - Brisbane Lions vs. Geelong

    We didn't play the wet conditions well at all. We were bad infront of goal. We didn't tackle well. Really we were gone as soon as we lost Oscar. Every player fumbled, slipped off tackles, had kicking shockers, made bad decisions. Picking out individual players to bag in the wet conditions...

    Always a fan of the Aussie Nash pub. Opposite the school. Had many a big night there over the last 30yrs.

    Game Day Round 6, 2024 - Brisbane Lions vs. Geelong

    Just chasing some Whiting, Dart, maybe a flathead if lucky. Got a handful but all undersized. Beaut morning tho. A whippy 9ft rod, a small egg beater reel and a few worms. Bit early in the year for tailor but looking fwd to the run when it happens. July till September best here on the sunny...

    Game Day Round 6, 2024 - Brisbane Lions vs. Geelong

    Great start to the day. Early morning beach fishing (no keepers), got the bacon, eggs and black pudding frying up. X blasting from the stereo, yes I still have a stereo. (Suck Suck by X, the greatest Australian song ever recorded. If it doesn't get you going you're dead inside. Check it out...

    Preview Brisbane Lions v Geelong Round 6 (Saturday 20 April 7:30PM @ Gabba)

    I saw Radio Birdman with the Hoodoo Gurus years ago in Bris. Can't remember where but it had a pretty wild vibe about it. Had a big night. I miss seeing a good live band. Punk, Ska, Alternative my leaning, but always loved a good Aussie pub band.

    Preview Brisbane Lions v Geelong Round 6 (Saturday 20 April 7:30PM @ Gabba)

    After 30 odd touches by Dev last week in the Vfl, I don't know that JL offers anything that Dev can't. But Dev does offer more mobility. Although I do think another full game in the vfl will be of more benefit to Dev than a qtr as sub. So I can see the thinking behind bringing in Lyons. Another...

    Unofficial Preview Changes & discussion Round 6 v Cats @ Gabba.

    With Charlie's suspension do we just bring McKenna (if fit) back in, keep Answerth and move Zorko back into the fwds. I'm all good with giving McKenna as much time to get 100% but we have this propensity to bring players back as soon as possible. This move keeps the defensive aggression Answerth...

    Review Round 5, 2024 - Melbourne vs. Brisbane Lions

    I didn't expect that. I thought a narrow loss was on the cards. A very good win in the end. I thought we controlled the game very well. We used the width of the G better than we have done. Last 10mins was ordinary, and bombed deep far too often, but a dominant game overall. Poor old Oscar...

    Review Round 4, 2024 - Brisbane Lions vs. North Melbourne

    Anyone have enough local knowledge to recommend a good old pub to watch a game of footy, have a pint or a medical Scotch, and a good chicken parmigiana, in the Yallambie area of Melbourne. Or if there's a pub worth travelling to, I'm interested. Old bloke friendly, comfy chair, good screen, cold...

    Review Round 4, 2024 - Brisbane Lions vs. North Melbourne

    I still have a great dislike for May. His late shot, knocking Stef out, and he knocked someone else out too, turned me right off him. Who was that other player knocked out? Was it Rockliffe?

    Review Round 4, 2024 - Brisbane Lions vs. North Melbourne

    Could end up nice and firery if Darcy gets inside May's head. Worth the admission just to see that.
