    IF we get Ridley and/ or Doedee looks fresh and back near his old self, then I wouldn’t mind Lester being thrown fwd again like old times. Nothing to do w that last night. Jez was due to roast him after Ryan had somehow dominated him for a few years. But Ridley is still better when fit in...

    I’m a bit concerned Zac will definitely entertain a move. Judging off a few things…. He wants more inside mid mins (won’t happen here even if Lachie leaves), he likes his money (staying here would cost him 1mil over 3 or so years), and it’s never seemed like he’s been one of the main group (I.e...

    Apparently we’re interested in McGovern from the blues. Should be out of contract end of the year.

    We will have to try and recruit a cheap small defender if Starc leaves & Answerth LTI. We have no one else to play their types of physical shut down roles, which is pretty damn important when you look around the gun small fwds the best teams have. Wilmot probably has to do it but I don't think...

    I think most people league would have us as the no.1 midfield in the league, and almost no one would have us not in the top 5 at the very least. It's nitpicking suggesting we need much change in there. We destroyed the Suns last time in there, beat the Dogs Port Cats recently all with fantastic...

    Autopsy AFL 2025 Rd 18 - Blues v Lions - Thurs July 10th 7:30pm AEST (Marvel)

    Wouldn't be chucking us in any multis at the current $1.22ish price. No away game is ever guaranteed for interstate sides, 5 day break, our record vs meh teams. Hoping Blues are completely checked out though & we get the business done. Draw after this is brutal.

    Do believe he could become a good mid in similar fashion to Yeo. But good point re: concussions x unproven in that role for a club pursuing him.

    Starc is one of our most irreplaceable players right now to me. Elite shut down in a backline lacking a strong defensive mindset. Not only that is how ferocious, physical and tough he is, which to me has been massive in shaping us from being talented but a bit flaky to a truly mature and...

    Analysis Centre Bounce/Wing Attendance Megathread 2025

    Payne's injury caused the shift in CBAs for Dunkley & Berry. Hipwood moved back so Dunks was pushed fwd to keep their key fwds more accountable, Berry went in late to curtail Green & Callaghan who were destroying us in that last qtr.

    2nd Test Sri Lanka v Australia Feb 6-10 1500hrs @ Galle International Stadium

    Thats fair. My main observation is that its really hard to compare eras, so how much better was player X than his peers at the time? Lara & Tendulkar (and Ponting) looks better players in a stronger era so maybe, but who has won more games

    2nd Test Sri Lanka v Australia Feb 6-10 1500hrs @ Galle International Stadium

    Bowling attacks were better than now, pitches were also way flatter which balances out. But still how many guys avgd 45+ back then. Far less avg that now, not even close. Also, how many of the top of the modern era go overseas & do well? Smith unquestioned anywhere. Root & Williamson I dont...

    2nd Test Sri Lanka v Australia Feb 6-10 1500hrs @ Galle International Stadium

    Haha yep for sure! How many times have you seen us 1/150 with us 350 ahead & him just hit himself out too cos we're looking for quick runs we probably not even need.

    2nd Test Sri Lanka v Australia Feb 6-10 1500hrs @ Galle International Stadium

    I do think about this. Overall cricket was stronger & more balanced then, with almost every country having star players & attacks. WI so much better than last decade. SA similar but still quality. PAK other worldly bowling attack. There wasnt really a bad attack back then bar England funnily...

    2nd Test Sri Lanka v Australia Feb 6-10 1500hrs @ Galle International Stadium

    Taking a moment to appreciate Smudge here. I'm in my mid 30's and believe Smith to be the best I've seen. Apart from the overall runs x 100's x records hes broken - it's simply down to how often he has gotten us out of s***. Without stats to back me in here I feel like he has carried us so...

    Player Watch Nick Daicos - Can he be the GOAT?

    lol pies fans… Daicos does get attention at stoppage yes, but as mentioned before by others that’s what happens to every single superstar. David King even did a little segment on Neale getting held so much but gets so little frees for. Sidebottom yesterday was doing exactly that. Neale, Bont...

    Player Watch Nick Daicos - Can he be the GOAT?

    Even as a Lions fan - I do love his game. It is a joy to watch despite the team he plays for & how it almost boosts his effectiveness. So often, you're genuinely in awe of what he does & I could seriously only name a few who have given me that feeling in recent memory. He definitely could be the...

    Unofficial Preview Changes vs Bombers Final round

    There’s no way we drop Bailey - be real everyone. The only reg best team guys who have been dropped over the past few years have been Kiddy (before he went nuts + had fitness issues), Rich + Gunston (old men reasons) & McKenna (which despite how bad he’s been, was still a slight surprise we...

    Review Round 23, 2024 - Collingwood vs. Brisbane Lions

    I went to the game and stood in the Lions' section, completely heartbroken and numb afterward. More because of how good and fun the win would have been rather than the choke, as it doesn't seem as abnormal to do these days in the AFL. But now it's setting in, the opportunity we have given up...

    Unofficial Preview Changes/discussion Round 20, Pineapple Grapple.

    My initial hope was we go small & run them off their feet, just hope to survive as much as we can on the other end in an open game... But after thinking it through I feel a slower game suits us for a number of reasons, and probably suits moving a few taller pieces down back. Besides the...

    That's probably fair re injuries. Conceding so easily against the demons, wce, saints & swans in a lot of moments has been very obvious & worrying though. End to end in a flash. Perhaps due to our high press but Fagan has mentioned it numerous times in his pressers as being a concern even in our...

    Unofficial Preview Changes/discussion Round 20, Pineapple Grapple.

    The worst thing about all of these KPD's going down is that even after this game, Harris will have to play on the no.1 KPF & his ability to intercept will be greatly diminished. Even right now our team D has been quite poor, and if Harris hasn't been able to save the day, we concede very easily...
