    A thread on politics- have some balls and post

    More and more refugee situations after UNHCR and United Nations have instigated their policy of setting up refugee camps and taking refugees away from thier country (rewarding the despots). Fundamental design fault in system, if you help the despots achieve their aims you encourage other...

    Delisted Connor Ballenden (2017-2021)

    What impresses me is he was making good decisions quickly (the speed of decisions in the big blokes is what really matters) and then was hitting his targets. This guy has just replaced Cutler as my CHB in the pre-season games with speed the only question mark. Does he have enough speed for CHB...

    Senior Jack Payne (2017-)

    I hope this is correct. Straight in backline to free up Andrews our best intercept marker let them grow in to it together, maybe Cutler CHB allows Mcstay to use his speed and agility at ground level in backline or his speed agility and leading ability from forward goal square. Things are...

    Prediction Which Lion will debut in 2018 first?

    I'm thinking Raynor at deep forward at feet of resting ruckmen, smith/martin in goal square to A) use their strength (agility) close to goal B)draw defenders away from hipwood playing around 40m to 50m from goal. Might be two, Andrews needs to be set free in defence to utilise his...

    Your Team's Best 22 - Round 1 2018

    Ya there is a few options but I don't like Hodge taking games off the kids there is plenty of opportunities for Hodge to run around in the preseason to coach backline. These youngsters need heaps of game simulation. And Rich would never be in a backline I pick as my backline standards for...

    When I have had the time to research properly I will answer. The excuse they are pinning their hat on so to speak, is can't get approval for the Small Stadium. The Business case for this small Stadium has not been proved as yet. More likely the small stadium will be white elephant as Womens...

    Your Team's Best 22 - Round 1 2018

    Like Rich and Robertson out of backline, Thumbs Up from me. Rich inside mid doing what Voss (BL), Selwood (Cats),Mitchell (Haw),Libby (WB), Cothchin (Rich) did for their teams in finals, hard inside mid! Maybe, Christensen as sml def adds speed? Andrews must be set free to utilise his...

    Thank god for that! Ipswich Lions almost dead? Why anyone would propose or support the Lions moving away from a potential one million customer base, is astonishing to me! Can any of the supporters give two examples of a business moving away from it's main customer base and succeeding? You...

    It is obvious that if they keep teaching your ball winners robot fashion to defend first then thats what they'll do. Then the team starves of possession. Train the way you want to play. Heard or read this anywhere? I for one believe it. Humans mostly are creatures of habits. Teach defense...

    He really doesn't have the speed or agility to become a high class shutdown defender. Spending time trying to turn him into something he can not possibly be, imo. Has all he needs to be exceptional defensive intercept marker and a very good forward. For mine football department should stop...

    "There is a balance which is why those 2 are all australians." Defenders. All Australian defenders who really aren't worth much up forward. This is where we differ. The Lions can't afford to not recognise the talent it has at its desposal an instead over coach it into a defensive drone...

    Unfortunately seeing rookie mistakes from our professionals. Could possible do harm to talents of these young players if allowed to continue. Turning Andrews into another defensive drone is wrong on all levels. By tying up Andrews ourselves we saved the opposition a job they would of...

    As I see it. Your advocating turning Andrews into another defence drone to the point he loses his natural gift. I pray that doesn't happen. Reading play intercepting marking down back or going forward reading play and kicking goals is a gift that few have to Andrews degree. Care should be...

    So rate Rance when he goes forward? I don't, to defence minded won't kick a lot of goals, if he is having a bad day your stuck with that. Well balanced squad in having your ball winners, winning the ball not to defence minded. Doesn't not apply to the whole squad. Know what you got and use...

    In those circumstances, your probably going to lose, write it off prepare for next week. One has a squad and a Neafl side to replace like player for like player. A well balanced squad means not changing your style of play because of injury.

    Should he get tagged and having off day, he goes forward and hurts opposition with his marking and goals. I don't think Andrews is given enough credit for his forward play. One shouldn't coach that out of him by making him to defence minded. He has a rare talent it should be recognised, he is...

    No Andrews would not be left out. Should a team come up with a ploy to get around Andrews (that would not be easy given his size covering a lot of space) he can go forward move Walker or Hipwood or other back and use their speed and agility in defence. Should Andrews being having a bad day...

    Andrews dominating the opponents attacking zone provides more opportunity for the team to play the new game plan not less. And as stated when I'm getting attacked for a typo, I know I've won that argument. Very emotional response to a typo?

    2017 Draft thread

    Yes, to valuable an asset he has and as I stated has the ability to hurt the opposition by going forward and kicking goals should he be having a bad week down back. Would you play your best ball winning midfielder as a tagger? If you answer yes to that, we are done! Intercept marking just as...

    Andrews slows down a small forward by marking the ball and not allowing an opportunity to occur.
