    Review Round 17, 2025 - Brisbane Lions vs. Port Adelaide

    Kai’s woeful tackling cost us a few goals. He really needs to do better.

    Review Round 14, 2025 - Brisbane Lions vs. GWS

    Not sure why Kai is being picked. He is offering nothing at the moment. He is not getting goals and he is jogging along behind the play in defence. He is a serious liability with his defensive effort. He really needs time in the twos. Overall our forwards applied no pressure all night and...

    ZZ was a very decent ruck at wafl so not a surprise he would do okay in the VFL. He would be a very nice AFL ruck prospect if he was 5-10 cms taller.

    Academy Rorts - The 2025 Draft Thread

    Annable looks like the midfield option we hoped Rayner would be. Plays a lot like him in many respects although he does not burst through tackles or break away from clearances but he is very strong over the ball and holds his feet exceptionally well. His lateral movement is much, much better...

    hmmm that is a surprise. I was thinking he looked about 195 and was a nice key position option.

    I like that Gallop is getting the ball to the ground when he can’t mark it and getting it to good spots. Hard working bustling type. Can definitely make a career that way.

    I agree. Very under the radar get that I think gave that little bit extra we needed. We have been short a true top assistant although admittedly he was not truly in that role.

    Thanks that is interesting. He will need to flatten out his kicks at the next level but the touch on the short to intermediate kicks in that game was excellent. Really encouraged with his kicking. Seems a big improvement from what I remember from last year. I would like to see him be a bit...

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

    My main takeaway from the Marshall highlights is that he needs more physicality in his game. He does not hunt and attack the ball as much as I want to see in an inside mid (or any mid really) and he gets knocked around too easily. He plays within his capabilities with his kicks not going for...

    Levi's disposal was very average there when he was under any pressure. I would really like to see him tidy that up. What was great though was his working to space to receive in the contest. The tap would not go to him and he would immediately burst to space to receive. As a result the ball...

    I think he was acquired for cover in case of injury given Smith was considered not ready. Unfortunately with us going to one ruck and there being no injuries I think it has really inhibited both Lane and Smith's development.

    Gardiner was ineffective and had no influence at all going forward yesterday. Payne would have been better.

    Review Round 1, 2024 - Fremantle vs. Brisbane Lions

    One thing which I haven't seen mentioned was our tackling the first two weeks. It has been terrible. The opposition is just walking through arm tackles time after time. We need to start teaching these guys how to tackle and in Qld there should be plenty of people who could teach them. The...

    Personally I think Madden is a lot better defensively than Prior and his pace would be a real asset against Carlton. Getting the ball the other way is the issue with Madden for me. I love his burst but at AFL level he has not got enough of it consistently enough. If he were with a lesser team...

    Interesting for me that Reville is getting wing time. I had expected him to start in the forward line but if his running is up to par, his skill would be great going into 50.

    Training 2024 Preseason training reports and discussion

    Great to hear about him upping his running. I have always hoped he would be a high flanker and give good defensive cover and provide good connection on the wing. Improving his running brings that into play more consistently.

    If we are forced to the GC I would hope it would be rent free and all gate proceeds go to the club. Some chance to keep our head above water on that basis.

    We will have a dominant midfield for the next 10 years and that is where you win games. We will need to plug holes but if you have a midfield in place you should be fine.

    Reville has always had the talent but application seemed to be lacking. If the attitude is there then there is still time for him in a full time environment.

    With the athleticism of Payne I think we could cover for a less athletic KPD especially if he is a smart player. So don't mind Murphy as an option. ZZ is a good option to stash in the ressies and give time to develop. Play a game or so now and again when injuries happen. He needs to learn...

    What might be a factor is if all our academy staff are included in the football dept cap. Given the Sydney staff I would expect not.
