    Prediction 2025 All Australian team and squad

    Think Andrews last month has elevated him above the pack and having not been AA for so long he deserves it as career achievement as well. Zorko will maybe go the other way; he's been as good as last year but maybe last year will be seen as his reward and they'll find someone else to reward...

    Moved Thread Kayo Sports

    Does anyone know what the binge ‘afl’ offering is. There was some discussion about live afl and nrl (and other) sports being available on binge. Presumably it’s live only and no ability to watch on delay in your own time?

    Training 2025 Pre-Season Thread

    Given the number of guys still on very light duties with only 4 weeks till the season we might see quite a different team in the first couple of rounds of the season. Could be some even more surprising names given a chance to stake a claim on a spot in the team adding to the depth and...

    Unofficial Preview Best 23 2025 Predictions

    There's always a surprise player or two who come through in pre-season and grab a spot in the team, but I feel like aside from the Big O the guys who missed out on the grand final have it all to prove to get back into the team. Are Gardiner or Doedee really knocking out any of the back six...

    Looking ahead to 2024

    The biggest thing that could drive us up one spot next year is the pain of missing out this year. Clearly our list is right in the mix and it isn't changing to any great extent and while some of the top teams have made changes they aren't shifting the balance of power. As we've seen this year...

    Review Grand Final, 2023 - Collingwood vs. Brisbane Lions

    I think one of the issues for the AFL with scheduling is covering all possibilities. Lets say they made the Brisbane prelim Friday night and the Collingwood/Port one Saturday. In the event that Port Adelaide had beaten Collingwood in the Prelim then Brisbane would have had an 8 day break and...

    List Mgmt. 2023 Trade & List Management discussion

    because we are a chance at a premiership. and if someone is injured in September you at least want an experienced strong body who can bring the ball to ground or make life difficult for a defender (hello Billy Frampton) rather than just some 19yo with 2 games experience who shits the bed when...

    How did you start supporting the Brisbane Lions?

    I actually have a question that I'm hoping nostalgic types in this thread might be able to help with... I'm trying to work out the date of the first Brisbane Lions family day at Brunswick Street Oval which I think was in early 1997 (but it may have been before Christmas at the start of...

    First 22 in 2023

    One thing with Rich (and our defence generally) is that we seem to have forgotten the lessons of the two Hodge years. I think Rich needs to do more of what Hodge did sitting 30-50m deeper than the last player as a sweeper. Think Rich followed that lead in 2020/21 and was sitting off the play...

    Review Season in review 2022

    At Round 6 people were looking back on Joe's 30ish games for Brisbane and suggesting he was in the top few forwards in the game. He is an attacking gun to the extent you can look past his other flaws to a certain extent (see below) within the team. The Elimination Final is a good example...
