    Saints and Lions no longer viable

    There has been a fair amount of bullshit posted in this thread, and very few quality posts. I therefore can't be bothered explaining to a Bay 13 type crowd why the Lions are in the situation they are in. But really, why do people post shit that they know next to nothing about...

    AFL Clubs delusional says Eagles chief

    I haven't read through the whole thread, but God I couldn't help but laugh when I saw this article. The CEO of perhaps the richest sporting club in Australia calls the poorer AFL clubs delusional for having the temerity of actually trying to go little way towards matching the rich clubs in...

    2014 Membership tallies - Final AFL 2014 Tally in OP

    No official figure for this year, but my educated guess is between 3,000 and 4,000 based on my reasonable knowledge of the Lions Vic membership base figures since the merger. There are a substantial number of ex-Fitzroy people that do follow Brisbane (probably at least 50%, possibly even 2/3)...

    2014 Membership tallies - Final AFL 2014 Tally in OP

    So the big take out from the numbers is that around 36% (close to 300k / just over 800k) of all members of AFL clubs are now not what we have traditionally thought of as real members. Those 36% are instead non-access members (12% of total members) and probably a large number on 3-game...

    2014 Membership tallies - Final AFL 2014 Tally in OP

    For those doing the membership ladders, Brisbane's total is now on 24,013, just over 100 behind last year's final figure. Although, the Lions figures (and I am sure those of other clubs) don't show what percentage of the tally now consists of 3 game memberships. I have a feeling there has been...

    2014 Membership tallies - Final AFL 2014 Tally in OP

    The Lions tally has been updated for the first time in 6 weeks - it is now 23,822. http://membership.lions.com.au/ Looks like we will fall just short of last year's final total.

    Strange goings-on at the Brisbane Lions.

    I am not from Brisbane but I will have a go at answering (I go up to Brisbane for a couple of weeks every year and know Springfield fairly well). Springfield is a fair distance from the Springwood Lions gaming venue (about 30m). However, the gaming venue isn't really that strongly connected to...

    Strange goings-on at the Brisbane Lions.

    Another interesting take - this time focussing on the Springfield conflict of interest situation at the Lions. http://archiebutterfly.wordpress.com/2013/10/24/the-new-lion-king-ascends-the-throne-now-its-time-to-talk-about-the-massive-conflicts-of-interest-of-the-directors/ I agree there is...

    And another article from the same website (obviously the contributor is a Lions fan) http://archiebutterfly.wordpress.com/2013/10/23/hasta-la-vista-angus-goodbye-and-good-riddance/

    Strange goings-on at the Brisbane Lions.

    Well here is another article that pretty much details that Pinskier must be getting inside info from high up within the Club. http://www.news.com.au/sport/afl/afl-legend-leigh-matthews-threatens-to-walk-away-from-brisbane-lions-if-egm-fails/story-fndv8d6r-1226744061888#mm-breached

    Strange goings-on at the Brisbane Lions.

    This Henry Pinskier thing stinks more and more with each passing day. He has now used the voting membership database "which he somehow obtained" to request proxies for the EGM. Note the official notice of the EGM hasn't even been received by members yet and so the exact wording of the...

    Strange goings-on at the Brisbane Lions.

    As I have previously said I am not into conspiracy theories but this whole issue has me questioning what is going on. Pinskier's sudden emergence could just be a massive coincidence. However, I think it is slightly more likely that it is not and it has something to do with the ALP ties...

    Strange goings-on at the Brisbane Lions.

    One of my family members used an email address only created in the past 6 months and really could only have been available to the Lions membership department. So it was definitely a fresh leak straight from within the Club - either deliberate, hacked or somehow accidentally fell into the wrong...

    Strange goings-on at the Brisbane Lions.

    To add to this thread - which I have just found - there have been a couple of articles that have been posted on the Lions board by others in the last couple of days. I am not endorsing the articles or what they say - but they do make some pretty big allegations to say the least. I am not a...

    Moved Thread Lions Board Spill - Lethal to take over

    Really happy Leigh has confirmed that he is part of the push to take over. It offers the perfect opportunity to try and get the Club back on track off-field and on-field. Surely you can see the writing on the wall Angus and Co. OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!

    Final Membership Totals 2013

    Is anyone else shocked by the GWS member numbers? It would be great if they are legit, but at first glance they seem strange. Why would their member numbers be more than double the same stage last year??? After Gold Coast's first year their member numbers fell I think. Unless the Swans Grand...
