    For a tall to play on flank, you need good endurance. Eric has that. That position allows you to roam a bit further up the ground. Often frees you up a bit in that you usually don’t get the best defender on you.

    Doedee’s best footy is elite. It’s taking him longer than expected. But after a big pre season I have high expectations of him in 2026.

    Review Round 6, 2025 - Brisbane Lions vs. Collingwood

    Cwood bet us with discipline. Craig Bellamy from the Storm is big on playing the percentages. Cwood do that. They hold it til they find a player leading uncontested. We are too undisciplined to man up tightly. They worked harder. We didn’t pressure hard enough. Very very disappointing.

    Calm down everyone. Calm down. It’s going to be ok. My son got concussed a couple of times. I was naturally concerned. I did a fair bit of reading into it. I suffered a few knocks in my time too. Re Starce, simply unfortunate and unlucky to get 2 head knocks in 2 games. Simple as that...

    Levi must play. There were times early in Rayners career when his selection was debated, but a kid with this much talent, you just gotta play him.

    Reminded me of the 2003 GF. I promised myself I wouldn’t get emotional during the game, as I had no control over the result. Within the opening moments J Brown gets hit by Burns, I ran at the TV screaming (expletives deleted).

    Dayne Beams, although just 58 games across 4 seasons, he was very good. Good enough to be in that team.

    May play half back initially. Could take Lester’s role. To ensure the great man is not forgotten, will take the #35 and be known as Hannibal Lester.

    1. Voss. Some compare him with Buckley and Hird because they played in the same era. Voss was the best of the 3. 2. Neale. Plays at such a consistently high level. Clean hands, as good as I have seen. 3. Andrews. One of the best internet defenders there has been. Reads the flight so very...

    You have named one footballing state team that has lost a few players. Tom14 articulated earlier why your comparison is poor. The only teams that have experienced significant loss of player numbers (young players in the system for 2-4 years) are GWS, Suns, Brisbane. This is a result of...

    Interesting that Geelong bid for Gallop. With Hawkins retiring, maybe they saw some similar traits. A big bodied forward. Similar height. Hawkins 197 Gallop 194 (and still growing) The more I see of Gallop the more I am impressed. A competitive beast. Loves to tackle. Quite agile for a...

    We are not trading him. The concern is that he is a free agent next year (as was Rayner). He has not put pen to paper yet, so a bit concerning he could exercise free agency. I will be very concerned if he hasn’t signed before R1. The Lions will be trying very hard to retain him.

    This is the first time I have seen a report of knowledge about a player. Everything else has been pure speculation, including my posts. Plus you claim to have heard it from a couple of people with connections. Very interesting. In WA they work in a fish bowl and it's not for everyone.

    There’s several factors in play here. If we do need to orchestrate a trade, remember from next year you can trade 2 years in advance (2026 and 2027 picks). Not a fan of trading out players (unless they really want to leave). It has taken years under Fagan and Greg Swann to build this culture...

    Yes, absolutely. It’s u18s…not over 15s. If he’s good enough he could have played when he was 7..if his Mum allowed him to?

    Quite unbelievable to think Dalions that he has won 3 premierships in a row with Sandy Dragons…and if 1m younger he would be contending for a 4th. Very lucky to have him joining the Lions.

    Slow down grasshopper. if Gallop was an A grade player he’d be gone in the first 30 picks. Just cos he’s tall and can clunk the odd mark doesn’t mean he’s a Joe replacement. Luke Lloyd a much better change of filling the void. I really do hope he comes on in 2025.
