And maybe Tomic could be the boxing bag

Mayes snags the round 12 rising star nom! Congrats Sam http://www.afl.com.au/news/2013-06-18/mayes-on-the-rise

We can't drop Harwood after two decent games in a row; bloke's just starting to find some run in the seniors, we should leave him there to get his confidence up. Reluctant to omit Docherty as I feel he is another who would benefit greatly from a run of games in the seniors, but I can see it...

Not a question of whether he has the skill to go around against next year jus whether or not his body is up to it.

Ah did they? I was listening to SEN and Wallace was a bit clueless. I did see the replay though and it looked like a tackle that should get rewarded every day of the week.

A disappointing result obviously, the way our midfield performed and they effort the team put in did not reflect a 26 point loss. Can’t help to think if that result may have been different had there not been goals gifted to the eagles for Shuey and LeCras on those two occasions but that’s just...

Don't forget Hanley, been playing pretty much in the midfield and killing it. For what its worth, Port seem to have risen up the ladder much faster than the lions have but I think if we have all cylinders firing in the midfield, like they do at the moment, it should be pretty even. We just need...

Surely they can't go past 95 DT points and a game-high total of 10 marks from Mayes especially in a wet match. Although it does look like Wines is having a Daniel Rich-esque debut year, pretty much a shoe-in already.

Unless they feel Adcock still has a significant amount of learning to do in the captain's role. But even then, why use up Browny's substantial knowledge and teaching abilities on someone who will only be there for ~4 years.

As much as I admire the bloke, I feel that if someone like Adock got co-captaincy it would be a little disappointing for me. I always envisaged this role to be an opportunity to learn the ropes of being captain and if someone like Rich or Rocky were in that position it would be ideal, however...

Close call. Would say sloane at this stage but as the Lions improve I expect redden to become more prolific.

The name zorko sounds even stranger after hearing it repeated over and over. Thanks so much for all these highlights PK. Really helped ease the boredom of the off-season.

Noice one PK. Picking big things for Bewick this year, great overhead mark and his awareness and mobility got better as the season went on.

Duritz don't forget Lachlan Black in the same draft. I can see the 2036 premiership side building already.

Surely Melbourne won't be punished for something their last administration did. Just get rid of the people still around from 'the vault' days and the label of being 'tankers' should be enough punishment in itself. I for one am not getting my hopes up of their pick being taken away.

Any reason why Plowman can't be groomed into a forward/midfielder role? I don't know much about him but it seems as if he is talked about only as a defender.

Ah, Bay13 at its finest. Richmond's development stage is about 1-2 years ahead of Brisbane's and therefore they should play finals earlier. /thread

Sydney, WCE, Essendon, Carlton, Collingwood, Fremantle, Geelong and Hawthron all in a row does not look good. We may struggle to get many wins out of that lot.

The Courier Mail pulled this trick as well. Also shout-out to Greg Davis for infiltrating a Lions article into the rugby league section of today's CM. While it was predominantly about Cronk, he snuck in some good stuff about our boys as well.

Is that why Brown made it to 500 goals before Pavlich despite missing some of 2010 and most of 2011 through injury? Admittedly though Pav did have a better year this year.

Have a feeling that if he stays uninjured, Staker will have a massive start to the season. He has already had some training under the belt and is set to have a big preseason in Arizona, can't wait to see him in round one.

For Brisbane I would go: B: Golby Merrett Patfull CHB: Adcock Maguire McGrath C: Redden Moloney Hanley CHF: Rockliff Brown Zorko FF: Bewick Lisle Green R: Leuenberger Rich Black Int: Martin Raines Beams Sub: Yeo or Polec

Would this be a Brisbane or Melbourne home game? If it's a Melb home game do we have to agree to having it in Darwin?

You should see the crowd brawls at the GC v GWS games, I've seen fights with up to 3 people involved!

I hope you're right about premiership side Macmum but regardless the depth we have now in comparison to the last few years is outstanding. With 3 more hopefully talented players to join the pride after draft day and players like Polec, Bartlett, Longer and Yeo starting to hopefully emerge as...

Wow what a talented bloke, stoked we managed to get him.

Good on ya Kerr, and well done to Melbourne for acquiring draft picks 53, 73, and 88 over the last few days, I'm sure they'll find those very useful :D

I wouldn't mind Gysberts but obviously the club doesn't share my views (fortunately) otherwise I'm sure they would have been able to work something out seeing as he is not wanted as Melbourne.

Saw this post but it was in reply to this:

No my mistake, disregard this. Got the wrong end of the stick from his twitter post. A possibility though :P
