    Official Club Stuff Ask Lions_Insider!

    Hey LI, just a bit of input on merch.. Wondering if there are any plans for Lions wide-brim straw hats or keep-a-cups.. As a teacher I would love to have both for work as practical displays of my love for the club, and great advertising to 1000 kids and 100 staff :)

    Opinion Pick 1... is Cam Rayner

    From an apparent flight risk or just being a Melbourne boy, dare I say it, no player has ever been so happy to be drafted to us. Rayner is a genuinely good kid from a solid, caring family, how awesome.

    2017 Draft thread

    Under the bright lights of Etihad, infront of every club, scout, coach and peer, with potentially millions of dollars and a dream career on the line.. pretty big stakes and plenty of pressure to stay focussed and execute their skills if you ask me..

    Non-Lions Footy Season (2017)

    I feel like we have been in the exact same rebuild timeline as Carlton and done a better job. With the exception of Weitering staying and Schache going, I think we have beaten them in the last 3 drafts at least even whilst they have leached off the Giants. The amount of draft currency Carlton...

    Non-Lions Footy Season (2017)

    Bummer for Doc, I cant stand watching him play as he is so friggin good and bailed on us but sorry for him. IS the same age as when Richy did his knee. took him 2 years to get confidence back.

    Opinion Pick 1... is Cam Rayner

    I am not buying the 'weak' draft idea at all, especially with pick 1. The top 5 prospects are all great young players and will instantly improve our list's top end talent. Take away what pick we have, if you just said you can add the following to your list, you would be happy.. -LDU or Dow...

    2018 pre season

    Every non-finals club starts at nearly the exact same time every year. The players' workloads are a well studied science these days and AFL is one of the most demanding aerobic sports on Earth, they need to run and alot. Most of the guys would not have stopped running from about 3 days after...

    Analysis The Case for a Priority Pick

    We need pace, We need tackling and we need more avenues to goal.. charlie is elite in the first 2 and quite capable at the third.. laid 103 tackles this year and kicked 29 goals... I will take that all day for pick 12. If he even levels out and plays at that level for the next 3 years, we have...

    2017 Trade and FA thread

    I think alot of people are forgetting the overall list is in a very nice position and 1 year more mature and totally united. We could afford to lose a tall this year, just didn't expect it to be Shak.. and Rocky will be replaced by about 5 young mids (Mathieson, Berry, Keays, McCluggage, Pick...

    Prediction Future of Josh has gone to the Dogs.

    Bummer.. I really like Josh as a person and player. -But I am totally on board with Noble, he knows his sheit. He obviously has a better understanding on how desperate Josh was to get to Vic than any of us. -Yes he is soft but has a great skillset, so is now a massive boom or bust prospect...

    Prediction Future of Josh has gone to the Dogs.

    Fair enough. Step Dad obviously matters too. But hey if your kid has an opportunity to excel at an elite level but will only reach those highs with close family proximity, maybe your family goes on an adventure and see's what happens..

    Prediction Future of Josh has gone to the Dogs.

    great call. a Quiet bloke like Shak has basically already cut out 1 (media)of 2 (coaching) solid post footy career options and will need to get a backup anyway. Part time Bachelor of Science in Forestry or a Military logistics course (military base Puckapunyal is just outta Seymour) and he will...

    Prediction Future of Josh has gone to the Dogs.

    I think he has a brother?? maybe get him a spot at uni/work but not sure how you uproot random young men from Seymour to come to Brissie for one guys career that may or may not last longer than 3 years.. ,, but yeah, no harm in asking!

    Prediction Future of Josh has gone to the Dogs.

    With 1 day to go and little speculation, I remain hopeful he will stay. I still think he has a skillset of kicking, running, marking and height that is rare. Obviously the headspace and attack at the aerial contest is a big question mark but as a CHF who can run his opponent off his legs and...

    News Charlie and the Lions Factory - the Everlasting Charlie Cameron Trade Thread

    ahhh just pick the only 2 indigenous players to fail at the Lions ever and not compare him to pressure forwards or maybe previous Lions small forwards in general.. You are simply displaying a shite thought process and putting it into words. your better than this.

    Outlook Rocky: he likes an expensive Tawny

    I am also not a fan of Rocky or more the point his so called loyalty, but this is now crazy talk. -Rocky decision is up for debate and time will tell who won out of the move/not matching.. -Schache is out of the club's hands largely and they have done a brilliant job to get top value if he is...

    Toast Thanks Rocky for everything

    bout 60 great games, 60 good games, 30 average/knocked out games, 1 world class resting bitch face and by most accounts a bit of a dick.

    has anyone seen Bonar play? getting alot of love for a rd1 pick due to a standing vertical and decent 20m sprint.. Im not against him but would be great to see if he can actually play..

    2017 Draft thread

    truth.. To back up my point about LDU and Mornington Peninsula, I would argue that Rye is more 'Melbourne' than Sydenham. The only kids that will truly not have to move away from home at all are the ones playing for 7 private schools in wealthy suburbs close to the city (Scotch, St Kevins...

    2017 Trade and FA thread

    loyalty in the true sense of the word is not rewarded enough in modern AFL. certain circumstances change and players and clubs find themselves with excruciating decisions to make, usually due to $ on one end or the other.. Zorks is one of only 4 guys on our list (Lester, Rich, Mayes) that has...

    Outlook Rocky: he likes an expensive Tawny

    exactly, all of these scenarios still need to make it through trade week and then live bidding on draft night.. no chance we use our current exact picks.

    2017 Draft thread

    from his film it is clear how active he is on the field, doesn't stop running and bounces from contest to contest, I said it last month but he reminds me alot of Cotchin. Combine numbers backed up the film showing elite athleticism. I would be happy if we took him at 1 tbh. I agree with others...

    2017 Draft thread

    you guys are bonkers.. I live in Burwood (South East Suburbs of Melb) and often drive Portsea/return and from start of Peninsula link I get home in 1hr, 10mins.. so maybe I took 20mins off for Central Melb but it is not unrealistic to say that area can be counted as Melbourne. Especially if it...

    2017 Draft thread

    yeah Doc was even worse, he was a true Gippsland boy who lived a few hours from Melbourne but 'went home' to Carlton. Why we are on him, I understand all of the factors in play and it should be water under the bridge but Doc and Polec seemed the most mercenary of the lot and I will never forgive...

    2017 Draft thread

    I would love this draft. Funny observation I have noted is the apparent given that Vic Country boys will not want to 'go home' because they don't have one. Especially for the Stingrays.. Dandenong is a suburb of Melbourne and everyone who plays for them will live in Melbourne itself or down the...

    Podcast The Roar Deal podcast

    loving this podcast.. not sure what other clubs have going on, but I can't help but think, between the website crew, media team and this podcast we have the best coverage of the happenings at our club in the league. For a Lions obsessed draft/FA geek it is a wet dream

    2017 Draft thread

    After watching a bit of footage I think Nick Coffield and in particular Andrew Brayshaw look quite impressive. Brayshaw moves a bit like Cotchin and is very active spreading from contests, like it.
