    Preview Geelong. Grand Final. You know when. You know where.

    I know a lot of the sentiment is around Big O getting his chance after last years heartbreak, but I love that a lot of the boys were quick to mention Dizzy as well being in the same boat. Bloke had a phenomenal game last night and after a decade of servitude to the club, couldn’t think of anyone...

    First grand final I am contemplating forking up for. Anyone able to give me a better idea on how gf ballots work

    It might be my eyes deceiving me, but is anyone else noticing some sort of gray scaling when they pan around the boundary line? Just comes across noticeably because it dulls out the bright yellow in particular

    Unofficial Preview Semi Final Saturday 7:35pm vs Gold Coast @ GABBA

    It’s nearly a lesser of two evils scenario. The footy gods seem to be smiting us for whatever reason and the hurdles just seem to be becoming too much. If the Suns do end up winning next week then I’d much rather the Suns go the whole way with a healthy roster and a lightning in a bottle...

    Unofficial Preview Semi Final Saturday 7:35pm vs Gold Coast @ GABBA

    Belonging to what seems like the minority of Brisbane fans that have a soft spot for the Suns, couldn’t be happier with this result. Huge result for QLD footy in general, only thing bigger would be a QLD GF. If we do happen to lose, I’m more than happy to ride the Suns train and hopefully...

    2 PFs at the G. Potential matchups below: Collingwood v Brisbane/Freo/Gold Coast Geelong v Adelaide/GWS/Hawthorn All 6 fixtures are great matches regardless. AFL would be licking their lips at b2b 90k prelims

    Game Day Qualifying Final, 2025 - Geelong vs. Brisbane Lions

    We’ve lost, might as well beat the queues. With an old man whose arthritic, I never blame people for going early

    Game Day Qualifying Final, 2025 - Geelong vs. Brisbane Lions

    Just not our night. Lucky to be this close tbh but the cats have just pulverised us with their pressure. The Neale injury is just salt in the wounds. Regroup, next man steps up and hopefully we come out guns blazing. History says when we lose a QF we go out in straight sets. All I know is...

    Very valid point. I think another sellout still demonstrates the growth of the Giants in Western Sydney, that now a team solely representing them can draw a crowd of 22,500. Sydney as a city, used to host a total of 12 games, with 9 at the SCG (1 hosted by the Bulldogs) and 3 at Accor, with...

    Awesome result for the Giants. Regardless of your thoughts on them, a sellout crowd means 22.5k people are attending footy in Western Sydney which is incredible progress from the near non-existent base they started with. I’m still of the belief that the Giants suffered the most from Covid, not...

    On the topic of GWS finals, they’ve sort of been dudded a bit unfortunately in terms of opposition for home finals until now. 2x games against Western Bulldogs 1x West Coast 1x Brisbane Not exactly high drawing away opposition bar the drought breaking doggies road-trip. Feel like most Vic...

    Discussion Grand Final Matchups 2025 - What will your team wear?

    This Freo clash is so bland and creates an eyesore away against teams with white in their kit. After the 2013 grand final you’d think they’d have come up with a more inventive, stylish away kit. A green and purple away kit, something more than a straight inverse is needed

    Insane it sold out that quickly. First final in 8 years being a grudge match against the biggest club in the land would do it I suppose

    Autopsy Suns v Bombers - Rd 24 AFL 2025 - Wed 27th August 7:20pm (People First Stadium)

    Guarantee that it’s a sneaky shot at being around the 15k mark. I get the sentiment of the stakes on the line tonight, but it still is a rescheduled match against essentially non-opposition (sorry Bombers fans) on a Wednesday night. And with that context it’s a very solid effort for an...

    2025 Attendances

    Tickets seem to be selling okay-ish for the Suns game tonight. I’m expecting 13-15k. Most likely would’ve gone closer to sellout on a weekend though. Astounds me that tickets on the second tier seats behind the goal are $55 with centre wing seats on the upper at $80. Ridiculously pricey for a...

    Can back up ____ claim. When the full time siren sounded, if you didn’t know, could 100% have mistaken it for a Warriors home game. Was ridiculously loud for an away team

    Review Round 24, 2025 - Brisbane Lions vs. Hawthorn

    Time. Just time together. The back 6 have gelled incredibly well over the past 7 years and we’re now bearing the fruit of it. That core rotation of Andrews, Payne, Starcevich, Lester, Answerth, Wilmot have become a dependable battle hardened unit that trust each other and it shows every time...

    Game Day Round 24, 2025 - Brisbane Lions vs. Hawthorn

    Finals have already started. A win here makes the next month a hell of a lot easier, and if that isn’t motivation enough to come out firing tonight then it just isn’t meant to be our year. I believe in these boys and it should make for memorable viewing tonight. Matchups on outcome for those...

    Oppo Camp Non-Lions Discussion 2025

    As a neutral observer, I don’t think a night of footy has pissed me off more than tonight. The Dees look on track to an unlikely win to guarantee us at least 1 home final then turn back into spuds for the final 10 minutes. And I know I’ve got more of a soft spot for little brother than most...

    A stark contrast to the results we had last week! And by some fortitude of fate, our destiny is back in our own hands. 2nd right through to 8th is still a very likely possibility. Next week's games that determine the 8: Collingwood v Melbourne Gold Coast v Port Adelaide/Essendon Geelong v...

    20th AFL Team

    I actually don’t hate this. 20 teams should be what the league stays at for another 20-30 year period which is plenty of time to start laying the foundations. For newy, have Heeney as the main ambassador post career with GWS or a VIC club to take games there in the lead up. Sunny Coast, has a...

    On one hand, it’s blatantly unprofessional and disrespectful to the girls that the main broadcaster can stuff up so badly. On the other, it’s cool to be reassured that the score bug can be adjusted with so much ease especially with alt kits seen already this season (Eagles WA day kit, Suns...

    Amazing crowd on the coast. Record crowd between these two sides and also eclipsed the Richmond crowd a couple weeks ago. Not the result the SUNS would’ve wanted but genuinely sets up the Bombers game as a must win for the 8 and potentially top 4, ditto for the Giants against the Saints next...
