    Brisbane Clean Out Begins? Matthews & Leppitsch gone?

    Just bang on with the same message and ignore any nuance hey? Let's just point out the exact portion of the article you are referring to so that everyone can see it with their own eyes...

    Brisbane Clean Out Begins? Matthews & Leppitsch gone?

    Go troll somewhere else mate. Just because aspects of an article contain elements of truth doesn't make the whole thing gospel. If you actually read what Leigh said in his interview he explicitly says the article was speculative.

    Brisbane Clean Out Begins? Matthews & Leppitsch gone?

    Says who - the genius that is David Schwaz on SEN??? Never mind Leigh wasn't even a Board member then, nor head of the committee. In fact back then he had no official role with the Club other than being an independent member on the coach selection committee. It seems like certain people are...

    Brisbane needs help: 2016

    I see you are keeping up your average as the main person posting in this thread. Earlier today you were sitting on just over 5% of all posts in this thread. That is quite remarkable for a thread that has been going for two years and is getting close to 1,500 posts. Not obsessed with trolling...

    Brisbane needs help: 2016

    Perhaps we could set up a separate thread for the wonderfully insightful JeffDune to continue his decade long trolling of the Brisbane Lions and Lions supporters. Jeff could then dazzle us all with his marketing and management expertise that he so obviously has in spades. Of course most normal...

    When was the last time a team was beaten by 75 points or more and went on to win the flag?

    Another almost - Carlton beat the Lions by 74 points in 2001 two weeks before the "If it bleeds" game against Essendon that started our record run.

    AFL - too social?

    It seems like my post touched off a raw nerve with you. It was a pretty flippant post that I found very funny in response to repeated suggestions that the majority of people are dumb/uneducated/racist/sexist and need to be told/indoctrinated in to what to think and how good it is that the AFL...

    AFL - too social?

    Maybe the AFL could run camps to help hasten this (re)education process across society that apparently desperately needs to be told what to think.

    Brad complains about umpires... Brad was wrong... North apologises

    No huge interest in this thread or why this image is being posted, but time to open your one eye - it is beyond doubt it was Cyril's hand. Gee when supporters can't even admit something staring them in the face it just makes you lose all credibility.

    Do Brisbane need a priority pick?

    Just in case there is the slightest chance of creating a reasonable discussion in this thread beyond the usual trolling, stupidity, know-it-alls, and outright contempt that is the main board of Big Footy these days - I thought I would copy what I posted earlier today on the Brisbane board on...

    Do Brisbane need a priority pick?

    From the guru that for some reason fiercely supported the Paddlepop lion experiment. Marketing is really up your ally hey Jeff??? And was of course told then as now - it doesn't matter that much what marketing you do, what Brisbane needs to be able to do most of all is win games. Everything...

    We need a solution - Lifting the arm / Dropping height to get a high free - how do we stop it?

    Come on, you can't tell me you believe those stats (not that it is important, but there is no way that is true). Clubs are well known to continue to bullshit height and weight stats. Doesn't take away from the fact that it is mostly smaller players or players that play small that are able to...

    We need a solution - Lifting the arm / Dropping height to get a high free - how do we stop it?

    Nice how people rarely us their own team's players as an example. It is almost always someone else's problem. Same game same end Mathieson tackles Sicily who drops almost horizontally to the ground from an upright position and gets a free in front of goal. Like Mathieson he is one of the...

    Aboriginal & TSI Your best indigenous team

    Sorry I looked at the title and skimmed the OP and didn't pick that up. I did see the comment about being interested in players from yesteryear, hence my post.

    Rhys Mathieson - ducking debut (video)

    You don't seem to be able to comprehend what that actually means though. It is not dishonest or unfair if it is within the rules of the game and has been openly allowed for at least a decade. Dishonest and unfair would be something like taking banned substances to gain a performance advantage =...

    Aboriginal & TSI Your best indigenous team

    All you young'ins obviously haven't heard of Polly Farmer. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graham_Farmer While I am too young to have seen him play myself, many of the games greats consider him the greatest ruckman of all time and probably the greatest indigenous player of all time. Obviously...

    Rhys Mathieson - ducking debut (video)

    It is definitely part of his bag of tricks. Lions fans who watched the pre-season games know that. So I guess that puts us on track for a 500 page thread if Mathieson holds his spot in the team for the rest of the season - it will be a lasting tribute to the insanity of the internet mob...

    Oh the throw away caveat that excuses everything that then spews forth. BS by any other name. Has he ever started a thread pointing out Shuey's constant ducking??? Enough said.

    Oh my, it is getting embarrassing now. Best you stop digging. I am sure there are a lot of decent Melbourne supporters out there, but you lot are doing them no favours.

    Rhys Mathieson - ducking debut (video)

    Do your parents know you are still up? Really no wonder so many people can't stand the quality of posting on BigFooty. You can at least get some decent gifs or something if you are going to try and troll.

    Rhys Mathieson - ducking debut (video)

    Gee I wonder how many threads and posts by Melbourne and Carlton supporters there are around their players that are known duckers or arm lifters??? I am betting there are none, but gee let's think who could we target: - Marc Murphy, one of the greatest duckers of them all. Genuinely an old time...

    Rhys Mathieson - ducking debut (video)

    What??? If you can't even admit the Hanley one was clearly different to how it was adjudicated all year and even 10 minutes earlier in the game when a Melbourne player did the same thing down the opposite end, then there is no help for you. Even your coach and most of your most ardent supporters...

    Rhys Mathieson - ducking debut (video)

    There is 23 pages of keyboard warriors potting a first gamer who has more courage than all of them combined, yet virtual silence from Melbourne supporters of the ridiculous potentially game changing free kick goals they got early in the match. The rushed behind thread has two pages, not a Dees...

    Rhys Mathieson - ducking debut (video)

    Have you watched the video at all? He doesn't duck in the traditional sense. At most he leans into the tackle while bending at the knees (and not nearly as much as the likes of Chrsitensen or other players who have been doing it for years do). So either you come up with a rule change that is...

    Rhys Mathieson - ducking debut (video)

    The problem with that is even if you adjudicate like the 'don't argue' - being prior opportunity - you still then have to stick a tackle that is not head high after that occurs. Which, in virtually all of these cases, would still mean there are free kicks paid for high tackles. You could argue...

    Disgusting pathetic tactic. Players who use it should be 'Banned'. Just when you thought we had reached peak stupidity in this thread....

    Rhys Mathieson - ducking debut (video)

    Oh good one. How many troll points do you score for that effort? Seriously though are we really debating a free kick for a tackle where the camera didn't pick up the high contact because it was obscured. Given the other frees it was probably there, and Matho drew it by lifting his arm. So...

    Rhys Mathieson - ducking debut (video)

    And still the keyboard warriors continue and yet still we are no closer to a plausible solution in terms of how the rules should be changed. And just a bit of a tip, telling umpires to put the whistle away is not adding to any debate. Are people actually suggesting in a split second umpires...

    Rhys Mathieson - ducking debut (video)

    Glass houses mate - Thomas could give Selwood a run for his money any day. And the AFL's media department probably isn't run 24/7 by Gil and the Board, so no it is not the AFL themselves that have endorsed that. Anyway, for all these people potting a first gamer for doing something within the...
