An exciting player with some real achievements behind him. A couple of highlights videos to get us in the right mood. Some crackers from his 2016 season, and his debut. I'd respectfully suggest that opinions on the trade itself might be better off on the other thread.

Date– Saturday, 5 August 2017 Time– 4.35 pm AEST Venue– Gabba Weather– SE Queensland in early August, so mid 20s and sunny, probably. Preview by Ironmonger Brisbane Lions vs Western Bulldogs - round 20 I hate hangovers. The worst thing about a hangover is when you think you’ve gotten over it...

Date– Saturday, August 6 2016 Time– 7.10pm ACST (7.40pm AEST) Venue– Adelaide Oval Weather -15° Cloudy with light winds The past Round 17 2004 was an exciting time. Chasing our fourth straight flag, we were locked in a four way tussle for the minor premiership, with ourselves, St Kilda, Port...

http://www.afl.com.au/news/2016-04-19/fitzpatrick-evans-to-face-the-media-live It's an historic day. This marks the first occasion the AFL has decided to change a rule that would screw a non-Victorian team before it actually screws a non-Victorian team.

Six days until our first game, and we're probably all preparing ourselves for another tough year. But there are still plenty of things to look forward to, so it'd be good to have a thread to run through some of the things we're excited about. For me: Daniel Rich back in the midfield: When he...

The Age is doing a series of off-season fluff pieces on each team's five best home and away games. They'll get to us eventually, but before they do I thought it might be interesting to see what the BF board's top five H&A wins would be. Incidentally, while the heading for these articles says...

I’ve been trying to figure out how our backline is likely to be structured next season. Some of the players who might play down back: Merrett and Clarke – Leppa seems to like versatile defenders, but our backline is anchored by two players who are really just stoppers. I think we’ll probably...

I think there should be a separate place to remember the great man's 182 games at our club. While he might wear different colours next year, he will always be a Brisbane Lion. My strongest memory of Joel Patfull will always be his role in the famous final drive up the ground to beat the Cats...

This needs it's own thread. This will likely be the biggest story of our off-season. http://www.collingwoodfc.com.au/news/2014-09-24/statement-dayne-beams So now we have to figure out how to trade for one of the league's best players, while still under contract, two years away from free...

I said I'd start this thread after the GWS game, but it's kinder to start it after a win. Senior list only: Confirmed retirements: Brown Likely delistings/retirements: Moloney, McGrath, Polkinghorne, Lisle, Raines, Wearden Possible: Crisp, Maguire I believe these blokes are all out of...

It's also not necessarily a bad thing to enter into commercial relationships with organisations that share staff at the top level. It's hardly new. It reduces the chance of nasty surprises emerging a couple of years into development. I reckon it's up to the board to figure out how to reassure...

I think there might be a few Scotch drinkers on this board. And I think we should have a thread for the discussion thereof. I've always been mostly a beer drinker, but I've found myself more and more lashing out and getting a bottle of some semi-decent Scotch that I slowly drink over about a...

Because balance and chi and all that. 3. Scott Pendlebury - massive man crush 2. Ben Howlett - much, much better than people realise. Makes very good snap decisions, and does all the team things. 1. That's it actually. Don't have a third.

With less than a week until the start of the season, I'd like a place to kick around thoughts on the season ahead without being yelled at by supporters of opposition clubs who I don't think will make the finals. (Adelaide not in top 8???!!! lololol u mad bro etc...) So to kick it off here are...

I think it's possible we could just about go unchanged. Would be very, very rare after a loss, but I don't know who would come out. No injuries, no reports, no one who didn't at least contribute something on Saturday. And with no reserves this weekend, no one forcing their way in.

He's been a great player. A superb player. Through his Dad, he's one of the club's last links with Fitzroy. But his time has past. With a full pre-season, with a staggered entry through the NAB Cup, with everything in his favour, he still can't raise himself above a walking pace. Just too...

G’day all, Is anyone interested in joining a Brisbane Lions Board Ultimate Footy League? Ultimate Footy is another fantasy footy game, a bit like Supercoach or Dreamteam, except that all leagues are draft-based with each player unique to each team, and scoring is based on categories of...

G’day all Was having a discussion on another website about how Sydney, St Kilda and Hawthorn are the three oldest teams in the league (or so I’m told) but how most people reckon the Saints will drop down the ladder while Sydney and Hawthorn are genuine premiership chances. I think it comes...

http://www.afl.com.au/Fixtures/2013NABCup/tabid/15297/Default.aspx Feb 23 - Gold Coast & Hawthorn @ Metricon Mar 2 - GWS @ Wagga Mar 9 - Collingwood @ Etihad Can't say I'm thrilled about us schlepping all the way to Wagga Wagga for a nothing game against GWS. At least it's drivable from...

Fifty days from today. Time to fire up. Go Lions.

This debate has been going back and forth on other threads for weeks now. Hopefully anything more that needs to be said on this issue can be said here. Anyway, McCauley's been dropped, which suggests that Leuenberger is going back to the ruck and will only play forward occasionally in spurts...

Very much enjoyed Greg Baum's article this morning about the Saints' golden generation. http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/cracks-in-the-pact-20110420-1dp30.html

G'day all. Don't know if this is the right place for this thread, but I'm planning a trip to see the mighty Lions in August, and I'm looking around for a good hotel that gives me easy access to the Gabba. Any advice or information would be much appreciated. Cheers

Re: One on One - Jeff Bruce v Dale Fleming http://www.footywire.com/afl/footy/ft_match_statistics?mid=3872 Just looked it up. Second game, rather than debut. Kicked four and we beat the Blues by three goals at Princes Park. He gets the nod for that game alone, I reckon.

http://www.theage.com.au/articles/2009/09/15/1252780303646.html Probably a good option for us.
