    The CBF

    Should the CBF work in a simialr way to a HECS loan? If for example a club receives the CBF, then they have to pay back 40% of any profits they make in the future. That way the AFL isn't just plunging money into black holes or paying for ineptitude. Of course if a club is on the drip for...

    Nathan Pilon

    I think it is time to play him as a specialist batsman in the next couple of Pura Cup games. Victoria needs an experienced hand in the middle order, and Pilon has put some serious runs on the board, and from all accounts shows fantastic leadership at Carlton. Arnberger back is huge for...

    Audio CD - Laptop Issue (HELP!)

    I have a problem in that some of my audio CD's (legally purchased) can't be read through my laptop. Every time that occurs the CD drive renames itself a DVD drive. How can I stop this happening?

    Spaanderman for Green

    One of the latest trade rumours is a straight swap of Spaanderman for Kasey Green from the Eagles. Personally this is a deal I really like. Green is a tall defender, who I thought played pretty well in the GF. Hasn't received the opportunities at WCE due to the form of Glass and Hunter this...

    Side v Melbourne

    From the squad selected, the side I would like to see run out would be: B - Johnson Michael Corrie HB - C.Scott Leppitsch Copeland C - Notting Macdonald Selwood HF - Pike Spaanderman Rischitelli F - McGrath Merrett Bradshaw R - McLaren Hadley Power INT - Logan Moody Adcock...

    Rate A Club - Brisbane

    DEFENCE: Versatility will be a big plus for the Lions defence in 2005. Mal Michael is one of the elite FB's in the competition, and Leppitsch and Bradshaw will alternate at CHB. The smaller defenders are excellent with Johnson one of the best in the league, Copeland is the no frills backman...

    Saturday Night Match Ups....

    An early look at the match ups this week. I suggest Geelong's forward line will look like this: HF - Ablett Graham S.Johnson F - Chapman Kingsley Haynes Haynes v Bradshaw - Haynes doesn't like physical contact, and Bradshaw has to make him know he is about. Has the speed and size to...

    Banking Finals

    So, seeing as the AFL's only answer to fixing up the MCC farce is to bank finals, does that also mean that interstate clubs who have had to play finals at the MCG will get to claim a final back in the future. For example, Brisbane have to play Geelong at the MCG this year in the Preliminary...

    Jones = Squib

    Aussie Jopes has shown his true colours. I have said for a long time the bloke is soft and has never gone near a pack. Last night he had 3 goals kicked on him in the first quarter, and got every one of his possessions standing 15m behind the packs. Unaccountable, front running football is...

    Ruck Situation

    Having watched a lot of football this year, I'm livid with the way that the ruck contests are umpired. The number of times inferior ruckmen don't watch the ball and jump straight at an opponent is terrible. The Lions have lost two ruckmen to knee injuries due to this, and Adam Goodes has also...

    Campbell Brown - Gutless Dog

    After his effort hitting Winderlich when the young player was leaving the ground against Essendon, Brown has proven himself to be a gutless, sniping dog. Wrestle occurred in a pack and as the play continued on, Akermanis and a Hawks player were standing facing and holding each other and...

    Brisbane This Weekend.

    After having to miss the Collingwood game, I am making the first trip to Brisbane for the year for this Saturdays game. I have a few questions hopefully someone on here can help me with: 1 - What time are the Lions training on Friday? 2 - What is the best pub around the Gabba that has the...

    Confession

    I thought I needed to confess something to all my fellow Lions fans..... I didn't get to the Lions game on Saturday night. I wasn't there to see Lynchy's 300th. I wasn't there to watch the Pies get absolutely smashed again. I wasn't there to watch one of the best quarters of football this...

    Troy Selwood

    It was with great joy that I read 'Available' next to the name of Bunnings on the injury list in the Sun this week. Hopefully he has put his back complaint behind him and will now go ahead and forge a great career with the Lions. At the start of this season I thought he was the player most...

    Team v Geelong

    A game at Skilled is always a test, especially so with the Cats playing well. I can see two changes for this weeks game. IN: Hart, B.Scott OUT: Corrie, Brennan Lining up like this.... B: Johnson Michael MacDonald HB: Lappin Leppitsch Copeland C: Pike Black B.Scott HF...

    Best Game Ever...

    I just had to put down my individual thoughts on the Essendon game. I think it was the best game that the Brisbane Lions have played. They faced a full strength Essendon side that was in great form and switched on for the game. The first half was excellent, with every half mistake being...

    Mid Season Report

    1 - Blake Caracella - injury has robbed him of a lot of game time. Pivotal year in his career, and showed some signs of really picking up the Lions game. Needs to cement his spot in later half.C- 2 - Chris Johnson - keeps on improving with age. A stellar first half of the season and very...

    Is Tredrea a CHF or FF?

    Watching a number of Port games over the past few seasons, I've noticed a change in Tredrea's role. In the past it was common for a Lade, Primus or Cornes or even S.Burgoyne to slide into the square behind him. Tredrea would roam more between the wing and about 35m out from goal. Since...

    Ways To Beat Melbourne

    With all the injuries, there will need to be a reshuffle against the Demons. The question is whether we remain with the structure that will be used when we have a full complement of players, or whether we try some unorthodox tactics. I personally would like to see some unorthodox tactics, but...

    Proposed Side v Kangaroos

    With DJ out, it seems the replacement will come from Adcock, Keating, or Bradshaw. Now it's a bit tough not knowing exactly how right Keating and Bradshaw are, but I'd still give the nod to young 'Clampett'. It would be a rightful reward for putting together a string of excellent performances...

    Footy Show

    I watched the entire AFL Footy Show last night, and about 20 minutes of the NRL version, and it is sad to say the there was greater entertainment in 15 minutes of the NRL version than 120 minutes of the AFL version. Eddie McGuire is not the problem, and the panellists were very good for a...

    Propsed Side vs St Kilda

    This is how I would like to see the Lions run out on Saturday night... B: Bradshaw Michael Johnson HB: Lappin Lappitsch B.Scott C: Akermanis Black Notting HF: Pike Brown Power F: McRae Lynch White FOLL: Charman Voss Hart INT: Copeland Corrie Shattock Brennan OUT...

    Sledging Saints

    With the allegations against Milne and Montagna, and players warned against mentioning it as a sledge, it is interesting that Aussie Jones has confessed to a sledge after the siren against the Lions last year. While sledging during the game is accepted, sledging after the siren is considered...

    Possible Team v Hawthorn

    Okay, given Caracella is a definite out, and I would say that Leppitsch won't be risked but Bradshaw will, this is how I would line up the side for this weekend... B: Johnson Michael (..to take Thompson) McGrath HB: Lappin Bradshaw (..to take Holland) B.Scott C...

    Topping Up For A Tilt At The Flag!

    Looking at the clubs most under the pump at the moment and they all seem to have one thing in common, recruitment of older players that would turn them from a contender into a premier. Richmond - after 2001 the Tigers got caught up in recruiting players such as Hudson and Houlihan, who were...

    Possible Team v West Coast

    Are the Roys Still About?

    Is the Roys team still about this year?

    Pies Scarred, Eddie Whinging, Life Is Great!

    Tonight showed a hell of a lot about both teams. Collingwood has zero depth and it's suspect players such as Shaw, Cole, Cloke, Didak etc. have again been shown to lack courage and intensity. Rocca is talented but doesn't have any athletic endurance. They have good ordinary players who work...
