    Rory & Belinda Sloane

    Absolutely horrible news. No parent should have to outlive their child. As a parent of a 2 year old and having seen a best mate loose their 2 day old daughter recently I openly cried for them. Thank goodness they will have the support of the whole footy club and wider community behind them both...

    News Update: Charles Cameron traded to Brisbane for Pick 12

    If we're getting technical he actually played some AFL at Marist Brothers Ashgrove in Brisbane while boarding there, but hey who's nitpicking ;)

    News Update: Charles Cameron traded to Brisbane for Pick 12

    We have benefactors? Thats news. From the same group of "benefactors" that despite one owning the land and another owning one of the bigger construction companies in Australia still can't get a new training and admin facility built?

    News Update: Charles Cameron traded to Brisbane for Pick 12

    We don't really have any defensive small forwards and we're lacking pace. He's just about exactly what we need along with an inside/out mid

    News Update: Charles Cameron traded to Brisbane for Pick 12

    Just an FYI you have to be in an academy for the preceding 5 years to be picked up under academy rules. Eg Lachie Weller was in the gc academy for 4 but couldn't be taken under academy rules and was in the open draft

    News Update: Charles Cameron traded to Brisbane for Pick 12

    I don't want to argue too much as its your board and it really ends up nowhere but last year an uncontracted Tom Mitchell got pick 14, an uncontracted Bradley Hill went for pick 23, Will Hoskin Elliot got a future second rounder. A few years ago Brisbane paid pick 21 for an uncontracted Allen...

    Nah was average at best, you wouldn't want him.

    News Update: Charles Cameron traded to Brisbane for Pick 12

    You bid on Freeman who was one of our first academy picks. Word was at the time you would have bid on Hipwood if Richmond hadn't.

    News Update: Charles Cameron traded to Brisbane for Pick 12

    There's always a big risk in holding a player who wants to go for another season because you lose any bargaining power that you once had. Lets face it, with the farcical system we currently have for trades around uncontracted players, they're essentially as good as free agents. You guys know...

    News Update: Charles Cameron traded to Brisbane for Pick 12

    If there's any set of teams supporters who can sympathise with these sorts of situations, its certainly us and with that in mind i'm not here to stir the pot or anything. I'd be happy with the lower of our second round pick (currently 18) or the rocky compo pick for Charlie. We paid pick 21...

    Prediction 2017 Free Agency & Trading - go to the Gibbs thread if you wish to discuss Gibbs!!!

    Geez you're a tolerant bunch, I would have given them both a day off if it was on our board. Strikes me as a case of Pyke not really being aware of what was asked and said tbh. Was probably told Fagan had said they want him at Brisbane but that's not really how the conversation played out...

    Preview FACE / OFF – Adelaide v Brisbane… or The Magnificent Seven (+15) v Suicide Squad

    So the team that has probably scored the most over the back goals takes on the team who has certainly conceded the most. Should be one for the ages. May have to resort to clawing my eyes out or popping in the 01-03 GF dvd's.

    Yeah no this isn't correct

    To be fair to him the majority of our injuries were impact related this year. The one thing I thought Burton did well was massively decrease the spate of soft tissue injuries we were plagued with before his appointment. No whether that was at the sacrifice of strength I'm not sure.

    Actually he's been the head of our fitness program since arriving at the lions. Never worked under anyone.

    Coaching Changes

    Really? What the hell has the rest of the stuff happening with our club to do with our strength and conditioning. I don't recall making a point about Burton being responsible for any of our other issues. I made a genuine comment that his work had been largely underwhelming at Brisbane in the...

    Genuinely surprised that you've named Burton as the head of your high performance program. Doubt you would find a single lions supporter who is sad to see him go. I must admit he did stem the raft of soft tissue injuries that plagued us before he came on board (most of our injuries this year...

    Unofficial Preview Face/Off - Adelaide v Brisbane - Round 13 - 4:15 June 27, 2015

    After watching our game last week I fail to see how we will even get close in this one. Still we're usually good for two cracking games at the gabba each year that come from absolute nowhere. Still until we get a couple more troops back and some miles into the ones who have come back (hanley...
