Lock up your mothers because its time to sauce up special style. Brucey is ready to pack some meat on the gabba stage. Cant wait.

I think senate inquiries are useful for setting the media narrative and hence public discourse. The media are underfunded and love reprinting senate discussions as its basically a free article with no research required. Just send the intern out to rewrite some quotes and then spell check before...

If the AFL committed to a second Brisbane team from 2033 onwards (and guaranteed some money) - would that push the needle for a 50k Vic Park stadium vs a hobolympics QSAC 2032? (and same with cricket pushing Brisbane 2 in the BBL)

Those poor children going to that smog covered school. This goes far beyond a football stadium. Children are being poisoned by industrial and petrol fumes at school! This is a moral outrage. The only appropriate response is a spiritual struggle against this oppression. A jihad if you will. I go...

I'd consider voting LNP if they actually could come up with a cogent plan instead of s**t stirring and whining. We saw how much vision Scomo had getting voted in on the "labor bad" policy line and then sitting on his hands whilst all the state premiers had to jump into action for COVID. Maybe...

Phew. I thought the Lions were going to recruit a bunch of dud players that dont even have highlights pacakges. Im glad they learnt their lesson from last time. Good job Bigfooty. We are making differences out here.

Im a federal tax payer, a Queenslander, a BCC rates payer and a Lions member. I will end up paying somehow for these games. I agree with the state government in a way. They have no responsibility to the AFL. They have let the AFL know that Gabba wont be available for x years. Its up to the AFL...

Firstly is that an actual quantifiable thing or is it 'the vibes man' type of thing where its just a figment of our rose coloured memories? I also dont see how you can't engineer pitch variation with drop in pitches. Firstly there is nothing stopping you from altering the make up of the drop in...

I love how North are tauted as some defensive juggernaught. We got a full taste of exactly who they are defensively this game. They spent so much of their time holding and scragging off the ball that simply goes unpunished by the umpires. Their own defensive 'tactics' backfired on them...

Bring back the Bears you absolute cowards. Northside bears are gonna flog thr ipswich lions in 2035 grand final. Believe it.

I took my mother and father down to Avalon Airport Oval to cheer on the Lions in the VFL final. After the match we saw Bruce continue to jog some laps and do some sprint training. My father went down to the fence post and waved Bruce down. He said he was quite a remarkable young man to be so...

A few years back I was stumbling out of Birdees at 4AM after a K-Pop dance marathon. My legs were heavy and I could barely keep myself upright. I decided the best course of action was to take a tumble and rest my temple against those poles holding the Chinese lanterns up in the mall. I thought...

A 20k stadium would be great for bblw matches. You could get the Bulls etc to paly there instead of using a 50k gabba. I dont think the Lions would be keen to get cricket teams intp their grounds and end up in the situation with a pitch in the middle of the field and timing clashes between afl...

Dillons comments about leaving a legacy for AFL Queensland and hyping the numbers/growth of the western corridor seem to suggest that AFL would prefer a developed Michael Voss Arena as the preferred option (reading between the lines). RNA Showgrounds 25k capacity vs 27k Carrara vs 40k...

I hope she gets a coaching gig elsewhere. Her Hannah Gadsby persona is terrible to listen to during games. Such a bore.
