    2014 Draft Discussion

    Think we are more likely to beat Adelaide than Gold Coast. My take is we should beat Melbourne and they should beat GWS giving us pick 3 on percentage. If we beat Melbourne and we beat one or more of Gold Coast, Adelaide or Freo (who have a habit of late season mass restings) then we end up...

    Game Day Rd 16, 2014 - Richmond vs Brisbane Lions

    If we had even a vickery would have won that by 4 goals.

    2014 Draft Discussion

    McCartin and Wright are still probably #1 and 2# at the moment. What Wright lacks in being a pure full forward he probably makes up for with his elite kicking and conversion. And having another string to your bow in the form of rucking ability is a hardly a weakness provided he can still play...

    Injury Redden out for season

    It's a big loss. But there's a silver lining. You would think we'll get a good look at / games into Lester and Robertson now. To point out the obvious the loss of another prime midfield mover probably pushes us up the draft a couple spots. Hearing rumours that Hawks and Cats are locked in...

    Autopsy Lions defeat Roos by 4 points, we did it for Browny!!!!

    Seems like there was a subtle tactical shift last night. Our backline was mainly the 3 talls, patful, adcock and harwood but Hanley spent most of his night down there setting up the play. Undeniably where he plays his best football and where Bris needs him to play. Aish and Taylor last...

    Game Day Rd 15, 2014 - Brisbane Lions vs North Melbourne

    Green, Zorko, Bewick, Martin, Hanley, Aish, Taylor. Bang. Wow. Merrett - get that man a kicking coach and he could win a coleman. Brilliant pressure, what a foundation to build on if we can keep that pressure up consistently. Brisbane's defensive heigh causing North all sorts of problems...

    2014 Draft Discussion

    Think Brown's retirement might have changed the equation a bit. We've got a project player playing centre-half forward well before he'd probably be expected to under normal circumstances and Merrett who for all his effort and size is still very much learning the ropes as a forward. That makes...

    Game Day Rd 15, 2014 - Brisbane Lions vs North Melbourne

    Big job for Michael Close tonight. Thought he would of been dropped to be honest but he's got a chance now to cement his spot with a good performance. If he goes at only 1 disposal a quarter though North will slaughter us, Merrett needs some support up there. Hope he can come through for...

    The positives thread

    G'day lads. Good idea having a positives thread this season whoever came up with it! My positive over the last couple weeks is we seem assured of finishing bottom 2 now and picking up McCartin or Wright. Reading over a couple of the threads it seems there's a bit of sentiment around a single...
