It seems like there's a lot of negative threads at the moment, all potting the club. And here's another one. Daniel Curtin, elite talent. When did Jack Gunston make up his mind that he didn't want to play for Adelaide? During which trek out to Elizabeth was it where the penny dropped? Sure...

It all comes down to this. Do the 2023 Crows remain a non-finals ugly duckling? Or do we emerge as a beautiful finals swan? Our home performances have been good. Our games against top four teams have been impressive. We've promised plenty this season and threatened to emerge from our five-year...

However the Ashes finishes up, we're heading towards a transition phase. 36 Khawaja 36 Warner 35 Lyon 34 Smith 33 Starc 32 Hazelwood 31 Carey 31 Marsh 30 Cummins The cupboard seems fairly bare given that a number of those on the fringes of the current test XI are old-ish themselves: 36...

Firstly, I hope Scorpus is ok. Secondly, I wonder what the record amount of weekly changes is in AFL history? Thirdly, there are no prizes sorry. Just thought it worth a go to generate more traffic given we're all feeling a bit flat after today.

Bad Almost everything Ugly Everything else

4-4 and it feels as though this is the fork in the road stage of the season for our team. Win... and we could finish 8th or 9th Lose... and we could finish 10th or 11th It's all on the line here. Great news that the club gets their annual mother's day lunchtime clash back. Today's game was...

Unchanged If anyone's injured we'll play short

Most of us I imagine are pleasantly surprised to find us sitting 4-2 after six rounds. Sure, all fans are hopeful going into each season but even perennial optimists like Jenny, Mego Red and myself didn't foresee the strong, exciting brand of football we are playing. We dispatched Port Powers...

Mine's Fog

Pretty low key build up to this one Such an odd place to hold it

We've had some memorable games and moments at the SCG The Porpoise shoulder game The Brent Reilly back with the flight game The Seedsman 80m torpedo game The Mark Viska disintegrates Kevin Dyson game The Plugger vs Pathetic Pittman semi final... also known as the Vardy Party Game Mark Viska...

We're back for Game 3 of 2022... Finals Version* * a certain level of presumption involved there Well done to the board's second best moderator CrowinNT who becomes our FIRST EVER dual winner of this competition. CrowinNT locked in the Bulldogs, her opponent Crouch locked in the Kangaroos. The...

I know he's not in the current leadership group but for me he's the best option to take over from Sloane. Will Sloane give it up after this season? Hopefully. Needs to put 100% of his focus on his rehab and his own game. Chances are he'll struggle to a degree next season even if recovery goes...

Remember these? Got through about half the clubs then lost interest. With this season appearing to enter a nosedive it's time to bring them back! These are the threads where we reminisce about the good times, bad times, funny times from previous Brisbane Bears/Brisbane Lions matches. Opposition...

Welcome to the second rendition of the Lock of the Week game for 2022! Congratulations to Crouch who won the first installment. Rules It's like tipping except you only pick one game each round. You can choose which of the nine games to tip. Select your winner - your "lock" of the week (hence...

It's back! Great effort by Gtowncrow, Crouch, arrowman and Jinglebells32 to make it through 6 rounds but sadly the Crows didn't come to the party against the Giants. All four tipsters bombed at the same time so into the broom closet they go. No naming rights won. The silver lining from the...

Match day :) I'll start the gameday thread this week. Several posters have had a little trouble finding the last couple...

Why aren’t GWS any good? Despite a litany of early picks gracing the field they play pretty uninspiring football it must be said. Only North Melbourne and the WAFL fill in team have scored fewer goals this season. We know all too well that the wheels can fall off after a humiliating grand final...

It's back! The goal kicking game has been running for... ummm... lots of years and it's become an integral part of the BigFooty board (played by a small band of diehards). Hopefully the Crows might actually kick a goal or two this season and we won't have three quarters of our participants bomb...

The Lock of the Week is back for 2022! Rules It's like tipping except you only pick one game each round. You can choose which of the nine games to tip. Select your winner - your "lock" of the week (hence the name of the game). If they win you progress to the next round. If they don't you are...

Hello! Boy have I been tardy getting these board games up and running this season. It's a hectic lifestyle what with all the parties and super models etc but fortunately for you I've managed to squeeze in a few minutes to get things underway for 2022. Upsets game! My personal favourite. I'm...

Unfortunately our beloved overlord Deaneus! is approaching the end stage of his health battle. From Deaneus: I haven't seen Empire Records but apparently there is a scene with a "eulogy for the living" that we thought we'd adopt here. Rather than have a sombre post from one of the Mods in...

Very simple group activity. You need to add a Crows player to this thread and plug them in where you rate them in terms of playing ability and output as a Crow. Eg I might start off with Simon Goodwin and post his name. The next poster might say Hey, Brad Moran has been in the news a bit...

Don't know if there are many (any?) Detroit Tigers fans on here but thought I'd test the waters with a dedicated thread. Been a much more competitive season. Some entertaining games. Feel more confident with AJ Hinch in charge. Couple of prospects Spencer Torkelson and Riley Greene coming...

You hope none of these rumours are true (Dumont, Hewett) If they are it shows the club is desperate to crawl back into that 7th-12th spot where a possible finals appearance remains on the agenda each year at least up until Round 18 or so

Congratulations to CrowinNT who won the second installment of the Lock Competition. CiNT wrapped things up in just four weeks - a new record! As it so happened, our first installment winner MatthewB had carried on picking to see how close he could get to the magic 18. He finished with 16 correct...

Should be a beauty. Shifted to the blockbuster timeslot thanks to popular demand. Our team is a bit understrength but I can see us winning if Paul Seedsman kicks 7 goals Luke Pedlar retained his spot which is good news and reason alone to tune in. Looking to continue our 100% record in 2021...

I agree dogs105 Conserve water, electricity etc but threads are free. The 21st year of Carlton's rebuild hasn't gone according to plan but they've copped a fair bit of media heat this week. Could see a reaction. For us, historically coming off the bye we always win, except for the times that...

Congratulations to MatthewB who won the first installment of the Lock Competition. MB defeated his final two competitors thanks to Jack Higgins' 1.6 allowing the Swans to squeak over the line against the Saints. Rules It's like tipping except you only pick one game each round. You can choose...
