    Unofficial Preview Preliminary Final: Lions v Pies - 5.15 Saturday 20 September

    I hadn’t been back to Melbourne since before covid. It was time to reacquaint myself. Caught the tram from the city. Walked along Gertrude Street. Had a beer at the Builders’ Arms, we toasted Archie Roach. Headed to the Napier Hotel but there was no sign of Jack Irish. Called in at Naked For...

    Don’t know what happened to my first purchase but went through the process again. Seats are now in my wallet

    Pretty sure that’s not the same Gunners that played for us. I would be asking the stewards to check his brand.

    His shoulder is not going to improve until long after the season has finished but we don’t win the premiership without him.

    Women's Footy Round 4, 2025 - Adelaide vs. Brisbane Lions

    It would be easy for Davidson to get frustrated but just needs to start afresh in the second half. There is a game to be won

    Unofficial Preview Round 24 2025, Sunday August 24th @Gabba v Hawks.

    I have so much admiration for Bez, not sure many would suffer that shoulder and be considered a chance the next week. Apparently it’s not considered serious

    Review Round 23, 2025 - Fremantle vs. Brisbane Lions

    I am not sure you can have an accident now. Zac was suspended for performing a completely legal bump but it was the outcome that was the problem.

    Review Round 22, 2025 - Brisbane Lions vs. Sydney

    Just like players who consistently underperform umpires who don’t meet the standards need to be called out. It is not an easy job but there are a couple of umpires who give the rest of them a bad name.

    Review Round 22, 2025 - Brisbane Lions vs. Sydney

    It has become very annoying the time it takes for the umpire to call “play on” after a mark or free kick. Particularly when the player on the mark has been told to “stand”. The recipient of the kick just stands there doing nothing while the player on the mark cannot move until “play on” has been...

    Review Round 22, 2025 - Brisbane Lions vs. Sydney

    I am not sure what the Lions did to umpire Nathan Williamson[22] to make him hate us. We very rarely get any of the 50/50 calls when he officiates. Then there are always a few random calls against us that nobody understands. He wasn’t the reason we lost but I never feel good when I see him...

    Just watched “The Couch” I can’t believe that Richard Goyder is still on the AFL Commission. If you read “The Chairman’s Lounge “ you wouldn’t let him anywhere near managing the future of our game.

    Unofficial Preview Round 22, 2025 v Swans @ Gabba, Saturday August 9th 4.15pm

    Maybe a reward for his effort and dedication to get himself back to this point. He wouldn’t be the first talented player not to show anything in the ressies but come out and blitz it in “A” grade. I hope he plays well

    Review Round 21, 2025 - Collingwood vs. Brisbane Lions

    So proud of the players tonight, to beat Collingwood at the MCG in a crucial game late in the season. It just doesn’t get any better than that, except perhaps if we could reproduce that in a final.
