    Opinion When did you feel we hit rock bottom?

    Not rock bottom as a club, but the day you felt it was all going to go pear shaped for years - GWS 2014. Massive crowd of 12,700. GWS were on the bottom of the ladder. 1 point in it at half time. That second half was maybe the worst half of footy I've ever seen from the Lions. Browny got...

    Not-a-cluey Best FOOTBALL RELATED RUMOUR you have heard from someone you trust Part Deux - Many lies and bullshit in here. Please read OP before posting.

    Just throwing this one out there.... Sometime within the next couple years I've heard from someone close to the situation there will be a mandate based on CTE evidence saying no junior under 18 can consent to any sport that has an unreasonable chance of head knocks. You're obviously thinking...

    List Mgmt. 2022 Trade and Free Agency Thread

    Hey all, Don't know if it's been mentioned here but sounds like it would be in our best interest to get on the phone with North and GWS and get involved if there's talk of swapping the no 1 pick for no 3? This might also be in WCE best interests too if at pick 2 they would then get the choice...

    Review Round 1, 2022 - Brisbane Lions vs. Port Adelaide

    I have a completely different opinion of that game and I absolutely loved it. I'd say Port were flying from their pre-season game against the Crows - the crowd looked way better than last year. We spent round 1 trialling things like Lyons on the wing, zorks off a flank. This was all forward...

    This is Daniel Rich's best year right on 30.

    Membership 2020

    So with everything up in the air at the moment, thought it might be a good idea to upgrade to September Member today. Especially if we make it and it's at a smaller ground. Anyone got an idea how many members actually take this up? I've always rode my luck thinking i'd get one with a normal...

    Opinion Who wins the Premiership? (Updated poll - Updated for Prelims))

    Each to their own, but I'd say the complete opposite - our ceiling is well good enough to win a premiership. It's the unknown of if we have the big moment players, the ability to withstand 4 qtr finals pressure and the smarts to find a "plan B" at short notice (GWS forward entries in 4th quarter...

    Preview Season 2020 - Do we start with our LIDS OFF? AKA Kane Cornes get in the bin.

    The bookies have the lids off - we're now favourites for the flag.

    Would Gary Ablett Jr still get a game at your club?

    The Suns certainly wouldn't take him back. We'd take him no problem, the more "big game" players the better. Someone that could kick a goal would also be handy.

    Preview Season 2020 - Do we start with our LIDS OFF? AKA Kane Cornes get in the bin.

    All this year has told us so far is things are strange and will probably be for quite a whie. The lid is completely off. We can legit win this whole thing! If the season extends finals are going to be played in even hotter conditions which is only going to suit us.

    Rumour 2 Melbourne Clubs in Dire Straits

    They obviously don't ever sleep in their own beds.

    Rumour 2 Melbourne Clubs in Dire Straits

    Please don't expect Sydney and Brisbane fans to join as proponents of dissolving Vic clubs. We've been through it first-hand and it sucks. I don't wish someone losing their team on anyone. And it's not as simple as 2 teams coming together to embrace a "joint history", we're still ironing out...

    What Lions Memorabilia have you obtained and how?

    Hey all, I have heaps of old Fitzroy memorabilia but there's one I can't find much info on. Can anyone fill me in on any details about this - even a year would be amazing? I'm guessing they were done for each club as there's a link to a sainters one here -...

    Have the tigers rendered stats useless?

    Stats aren't useless, but stats comparing two teams are highly overrated. A teams chance of winning is strongly correlated by how well they are successfully able to implement their own gameplan. A comparison of their own stats against their own previous successful identical gameplan stats says...

    2019 Trade thread

    Hey dumb question, but does this pick trade have any bearing on re-signing any of our delisted boys?
