    A video essay I stumbled upon in the YouTube algorithm. A good reminder of what used to be and how lucky we are now. Whatever happens this week, this season has been a great success.

    List Mgmt. 2025 List Management Discussion

    This Essendon strategy makes no sense. We wont ever trade Zach. He is our captain he has a long term contract! He is our hest player and has won an infinte number of Kevin Sheedies or whatever our irrelevant trophy is called. We are going to start calling it the Zach Merret medal anyway from now...

    List Mgmt. 2025 List Management Discussion

    Well that makes things more interesting. We are on more even footing than I thought. I'd still rather Starc for 2 more years than picks for our academy selection. I agree that that value looks spot on. How do Adelaide get such a pick given their position, its hard to tell. The suggestion of a...

    Its hard to gauge the trade value of Ah Chee. He would be a highly respected player internally and at Adelaide given their pursuit of him. His goals/shots/tackles/disposals have all been up for the past 2 years and he is finally excelling at his role. I expect Ah Chee to be at this level for the...

    Who do you think could become the first 400 gamer for the Brisbane Lions?

    Only including one club players in this list: Zorko 300 games - 300 games played; averaging 21 games a season - age 37. Comment: surely not. Would be an absolute effort to play until 42 but as the commonly known saying goes: you cannot cork the zork. Harris Andrews 234 games; averaging 21 games...

    From a broader business sense I dont see how banning bid matches in the first round helps the AFL sell itself more. There is a lot of intrigue that happens around pick trading and bid matches that generate a lot of discussion. People follow the lead up to a draft closer knowing a certain player...

    Competitions Cal Ah-Chameleon - Lions goal kicking competition - congrats lionraven!

    Im a master strategist. All the million simulations I ran through has finally paid off. I knew if I didn't win this round, I would only have midfielders left. Was kicking myself for not picking Smith on debut

    Competitions Cal Ah-Chameleon - Lions goal kicking competition - congrats lionraven!

    Have I won this thing? if so I will feel just like Neale in 2023 if the Lions don't go on to win the cup.

    Oppo Camp Non-Lions Discussion 2025

    Fagan also spoke about it on the Roar Deal podcast a few years back. He mentioned that players were scared to speak up, scared to get feedback, football wasn't fun, families felt disconnected from the club. Some of that is probably also because of the lack of funds to do things. Fagan made a...

    Warney taking a break from huffing the finest Colombian white powder off of the backside of some of the cutest angels in heaven to send down a miracle tonight. Thanks Warney for making this round of afl not a total waste

    Football Related Random Thread - PART 2

    Its a stupid idea that is being spat out to raise clicks for Eddie and his shows. Eddie would know that any fixtures changes that loses overall number of matches is a non-starter. Number of matches = more profits from TV rights. The whole point of a play in system is to squeeze more juice from...

    Great to lock him away before all the Tasmania expansion nonsense starts. I will never begrudge an AFL seeking out the highest package possible. Im sure Jasper could have taken a shorter contract and taken more money over the long term. You just have to respect players that value loyalty and...

    Prediction 1 Round to go, where do we finish end of H&A? Poll included.

    I think if we are genuine contenders to win the flag we should go 6 0 in this final stretch or at least 4 2. If we go 3 3 then wherever we finish in the overall we will be lucky to get past the preliminary final. We need to be good enough to win anywhere and put away contenders at the Gabba...

    Oppo Camp Non-Lions Discussion 2025

    I don't think its that hard to imagine that if gay slurs are being used all the time at your football club, you wouldn't find it comfortable to tell members of that club about your life or partners etc. I think that 4 rounds is perfectly fine. It's harsh enough that players will be mindful of...
