Right....we all know the current scene, to a greater or lesser extent re: the mentioned.
I was wondering if there'd be support in making a BL Parody team account.
I'm thinking a bunch of us assume that the Lions of old, whoever they may be, from any era, were playing the upcoming match in the...
Because this
We aren't the same as we were in Round 10.
We aren't the same pushovers.
We are LIONS, and we believe......
That what cannot be done, WILL.....BE....DONE.
I linked that vid, for our Melbs brothers and sisters - BECAUSE THIS SONG ROCKS IN FITZROY - AND THE FITZROY POWER CANNOT...
Just wanted to drop in and say - your coach is amazing. Yep, I'm Lions and yep, I wished him failure as a player - but as a coach, he's top shelf and I hope he gets the flag that he deserves. Absolute legend.
VERSUS
Well, here we are again....an early season home meeting with the juggernaut that is the WCE who are missing a KPP. Last year it was their forwards who weren't there - we rolled them and got our season off to a flyer. This year, it'll be their CHB who's watching from the sidelines...
So, the point of the thread is to have SFA Haiku's.
For those unfamiliar with this poetic form, it is governed by a syllabic breakdown of 17 syllables, in 3 lines, and traditionally constructed in a 5-7-5 fashion.
(Note: this can be broken, but it needs to be top shelf to do so)
As an opening...
....when life coalesces, and becomes something more than it was.
Moments, into seconds, into minutes, into hours....
Are we there yet?
Maybe we were.....Bears.....
This was our GF S27.....and maybe, just maybe, you all fear the return of Snags.....
Maybe not.....but, if you do, I'll always...
Hello everyone.
I have been working on a story, which will be presented here over the course of the next few days/weeks (no idea, tbh - as long as it takes to write).
It is a story utilising the lore of Sweet, as contained in the Wiki, the Minecraft World and the various histories of the...

INTRODUCTION
Well, here we are. Round 4, and the MIGHTY LIONS are sitting second on the ladder as one of only 2 undefeated teams. The Bombers have endured a rough start to the year and sit on 1 - 2 and 15th on the ladder. There's been a bit of media chit-chat over the Bomber coaching...
VS
This is a preview in two parts.
This first part is the more serious effort and features the usual assortment of names, stats, amateur tactical assessments and so forth.
The second part is some media to reflect on :)
PART ONE
So, here we are - Round 3, back at the Gabba. Undefeated...
In the Sweet FA, rivalries and feuds are amongst the most enjoyable aspects of the dynamics of the league. Coming up against a club or poster that you have developed a rivalry with is something to be anticipated and heralded. However the nature of the league, with the amount of player movement...

https://motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/gymwem/do-you-trust-this-computer-ai-documentary - That's a pretty good review, although I question his opening statement and conclusion. But if you'd like a reasonable overview of who and what, that will allow you to decide if you'd like to watch the...
So, yes, I'm Lions. We did good stuff back in the day. Not recently.
But - how does your clubs' history influence you, in terms of what is a pass mark for achievement moving forward?
I'm talking more towards teams like Essendon, Carlton, Adelaide, North - not so much Hawthorn (recent success)...
It's been 14 years.
**** ME THE ****ING AFL ****ED US IN 2004.
No doubt in my mind that had we played on the friday night at the 'G (yes yes, shoulda been at home, but MCG contract etc etc etc) - we would have rolled those campaigners.
Rolled 'em.
Sorry, but I've never REALLY shared with you all...
Well, it's a great time to be a Lions fan – that's what we have to keep believing. Our performance against Collingwood was lauded as our best effort yet by the chief and I think most of the stats back this up. Still, we are 0-7 and there's no shying away from the fact we need a win to give some...
OVERVIEW
Well, here we are again....up against Port, who this season we all wanted to crash and burn. In the corresponding fixture last year, we were coming off a close home loss against the Swans and I was amongst the people who felt perhaps we had turned a corner.....only to run headlong into...
Way back in the day, before BF etc, in QLD,we only got one game a week on Ch 7. But for those in the know - what was Ablett's breakout game? My earliest memory/vision of him is the 89 GF - any other games prior to that I could youtube?
Syd v Coll on friday night....somebody will be 0-3
North v GWS - North needs to NOT be 0-3
Rich v WCE - 3-0 on offer here, same with Geel v Melb
Showdown....need I say more, but it'll be a top of table clash as well
and Carl v Ess is always a pretty decent spectacle.
All in all, a round of...

In the last five years, 100 sets of goalposts have been erected in NSW schools.
In a thread I posted early last year about the state of football...
(Disclaimer - I do hate Port. But, like your greatest enemy, I also have enormous respect for the club and it's philosophy. It took YEARS of therapy to get to this point. Everything contained herein is said in pure footy banter.)
Ahhhh, Port.
God I hate Port. There is no single team in the...
A few years back, the Blues got absolutely creamed by the AFL for the salary cap breaches. I felt at the time they were overly punished and this feeling was shared by others. The AFL essentially sent a punitive message to the rest of the competition. The reality is that there were (and still...
Just thinking of great wingers, re: GF teams
Started off with Nigel Lappin as a model from my lot.
Thought immediately of Matera for Weagles.
Can you guys give me some aspect from your way on similar?
Cheers

If the Hayne Plane lands, S-E QLD (in addition to many other expansion areas) become embroiled in winning the hearts and minds of ANOTHER media worthy football code.
....any Premiership winning coach.
To coach 4 games against opponents who, in every case, were bigger, better, faster, stronger.
Who do you pick, to coach your team of Davids?
Me: Blight.
