    The positives thread

    At least we know the team switches on 100% whenever they travel out of Qld. Hopefully that happens this week against Fremantle. If other results go our way we could be back in the top 4.

    QFA Div 1

    It will take some time to adjust to a change (going up in most cases) in divisions. Normally it takes a few years. Fitness and conditioning, team chemistry, team game plans, and other changes too is taken into account when building the squad across the 60 odd blokes you want to have across the...

    List Mgmt. 2024 Father Son watch MKIII. Operation Ashcroft jnr. Featuring various academy boys.

    I don't think Caracalla was the mercenary type. Salary cap pressure at both Essendon and Brisbane eventually caught up to him and he went to Collingwood after. He was a good player and gave his all at the Lions.

    Senior Sam Day (2024-)

    Very good pick up by us for the purpose he is being drafted for. Seems like a good guy too and good for the culture.

    Interviews, podcasts & upcoming media info [post media articles in relevant threads]

    Levi appeared on the Rush Hour podcast with JB and Billy yesterday (from 46:29 onwards). It's good to listen to his perspective on training with the Lions, Fages, the Lions midfield, his playing style, and his Brother, family, and former Lions players (who are now Coaches) influence on him...

    Just bumping this post up again if anyone had any information?

    2024 Grand Final registration reminder

    Just wanna find out some information on standing room sections from people who have been at the MCG: How early do you recommend getting there to ensure you're not standing behind so many people? Is every standing bay open to everyone to go into or only the people ticketed to be there? If only...

    Review Round 20, 2024 - Gold Coast vs. Brisbane Lions

    We need to be a bit easier on Ashcroft. The guy has come back from a very serious injury which had him out for nearly a year! He's only 5 games in. Let him play and get his confidence back slowly. Anyone that has played footy and suffered a long time injury, would be aware of how much both the...

    The positives thread

    Things will slowly turn around. At least publicly and in training, they are showing a great attitude. We played against a team that had a 10 day break at their home with our team having played majority of minutes last week. The collective resolve of the team is growing and we fought it to the...

    What do you want out of season 24?

    As much as ideally I'd like to see us make finals, it actually might be a good thing if we miss it altogether and regroup with a better game plan and strategy. We are the only team to play finals every year for the past five seasons. Sometimes a dip isn't a bad thing.

    The positives thread

    Dunkley is a solid back up ruckman. We are getting the problems earlier in the season and hopefully the guys continue to learn from it. Hopefully we learnt to play in the wet from this game.

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

    I think that is just put there for now. Our actual tickets will reflect what we are assigned automatically if we make it.

    Who replaces Will in the midfield rotation?

    I think we should cut Dev more slack. He hasn't played regularly in the Seniors and being in and out, due to the circumstances, means he won't achieve the consistency as quickly. Payne last year was quite inconsistent too. He made a blunder in the Melbourne final by spoiling straight to Pickett...

    List Mgmt. 2024 Father Son watch MKIII. Operation Ashcroft jnr. Featuring various academy boys.

    Not comparing players at all, just comparing situations and needs with what I'm about to say: Back in 01, Hawthorne drafted Hodge because he was the player they needed based on his qualities etc and what they wanted at the time. They could have also drafted Ball or Judd and still become a...
