    Review Preliminary Final, 2025 - Collingwood vs. Brisbane Lions

    You could tell the FoxFooty producer got in their ear near the end of the last quarter, when you heard Jack Reiwoldt bring it up out of nowhere

    Review Preliminary Final, 2025 - Collingwood vs. Brisbane Lions

    It's amazing how few players actually know the rules. And given the amount of ex-players in the meeja, it flows on. I can pretty much guarantee someone like Jack Reiwoldt wouldn't have looked at them ever.

    Women's Footy Round 6, 2025 - Bulldogs vs. Brisbane Lions

    Umpires seemincly done a 180 degrees on the HtB interpretation. Evident in the other games I've seen this weekend also.

    Women's Footy Round 6, 2025 - Bulldogs vs. Brisbane Lions

    Her skills are already suprassing a good portion of her teammates, many of whom appear to have regressed. Conway looks an absolute shadow of previous seasons. Davison looks lost down back, the Svarc sisters still try to rely on pace and Orla still can't handball. Frustrated that there's no...

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

    Off topic of the actual game, but on-topic of GF week.... Hugh is arguably over-long in the betting markets for the Brownlow. AFL.com are predicting a top 5 finish. Do with that what you will.

    February? Why bother? Same problem as always - players won't play due to fear of injury. Care factor from any state not involved will be limited.

    Women's Footy Round 5, 2025 - Brisbane Lions vs. North Melbourne

    They look like they're trying to implement a different game plan, but don't have the skills to go with it. But North are just so even across the park, they're going to pretty much every team they play look a little silly. We at least got closer to them than any other team this year. I think our...

    Women's Footy Round 5, 2025 - Brisbane Lions vs. North Melbourne

    Off-season, any player who is not improving their disposal and ball-handling needs to be moved on. I've loved the group he have and the heart they've displayed, but we're in danger of being left-behind. Too many tumble handballs, too many fluffed marks and most importantly waaaaaay too much...

    Not saying for a minute that it doesn't happen. Cameron, Neale and Dunkley for us are evidence enough. But the expectation that under-contract players who nominate a club will end up getting there is unrealistic.

    List Mgmt. 2025 List Management Discussion

    Precedent is definitely there in recent years for clubs to be enforcing contracts following an initial expression of a desire to leave: Dunkley, Papley, Daniher, O'Keefe. Essendon basically had no depth in their backline the whole year (partially down to injury) so I can definitely see them...

    I believe both of them did well in the agility test at their respective combines.

    Women's Footy Round 4, 2025 - Adelaide vs. Brisbane Lions

    Would have to watch it back, but few generous umpiring decisions helped today. Not complaining as we cop the rough end other times. Swings/roundabouts.

    Women's Footy Round 4, 2025 - Adelaide vs. Brisbane Lions

    Not the commentary, the ground effect mics. Heavily distorted. Was watching on my TV + sound sytem.

    Were they using the cheapest mics they had at the ground?

    Club is not going to say jack shit about any potential incoming player while we're still playing.

    I've never understood why you can only take as many picks in as you have list spots, but as soon as the draft starts it doesn't matter. Although we've played that game well, it's always struck me as weird - you should only be able to have as many picks as spots.

    Not the player he was a couple of years ago, and I think our midfield is pretty full. Plus his salary would be hard to accommodate given we have needs elsewhere on the list.

    Coach Fages and the coaching group

    I though it was pretty obvious the Crows were playing a lot more like us from early in the year. I know there's bit a bit of musing on Daly being over the line once Fages calles it quits, but I also wonder whether Muzz's name shouldn't be in the conversation a little more.

    So, the guy who played 2 games this year for the team that only won a single game? Oh, Carlton, honey...

    People expecting Swann to act unprofessionally in his new role is laughable. When he came to us, should he have been acting in extension of his previous role at Carlton?

    A very Special Bruce - Reville bandwagon

    Was certainly a booming and penetrating kick. I wouldn't necessary say he was able to weight his kicks as well.

    Is it coincidence, we've played Bruce a bit deeper? He's not Starce, but could develop in that role given he's put on some muscle over the past couple of years.

    Review Round 24, 2025 - Brisbane Lions vs. Hawthorn

    It was 100% lifted from the British and Irish Lions supporters. Been attending Brisbane Lions games since there have been Brisbane Lions games to attend and it only started after 2001. In those days it was a lot more drawn out and intimidating. Now, I think it's too quick and misses the mark...
