    Non Lions Discussion 2026

    To be fair, you simply cannot have a player, on prime time TV no less, who was clearly struggling and not fit to play, on the field in front of a million viewers and have an outcome of "nothing to see here, play on". Whatever the reason, or however the reason, Hollands was able to take the...

    I can One Nations election marketing now... "Vote 1 Handpuppet Hanson. She says what your thinking while on her new plane, just not in the Parliament or to Gina's face." Mind you with Labors spineless and gormless attrition to Big Gas these last few weeks I understand peoples frustration. If...

    Game Day Round 8, 2026 - Essendon vs. Brisbane Lions

    It's funny, in the same way I do for Sharpy, I have a soft spot for Jaxon... Both I think gave eveything they had to the Lions but they were at the wrong place at the wrong time and just didn't have a hope of breaking into this team. You do you, but I'm sort of glad for both of them to have...

    Thank you... I thought that's how it was but I was following a thread where someone was arguing black and blue that comp was paid for every bid on a father son selection in the first round which seemed even crazier than this!! Appreciate you clearing it up for me :)

    Question... What if a father/son pick comes along and the kid is relatively average... not a first rounder by any stretch, but the club involved wants to take him for any number of reasons. Now this club was never intending to bid in the first round... but is forced to because the connection...

    This is a huge part of this debate - the Northern Clubs need to hold a press conference and say "this is what it costs us, money that we either raise or divert from other areas, this is the effect it has on staff, administration etc. And we do all of that knowing we would most likely still draft...

    If anyone has ever wondered why tax law is 100 volumes long and stands 1m high when stacked, then this is it. You take a simple thing and then try to please, or penalise, people depending on who pisses and moans loud enough. Remember for a moment that most VFL heartland clubs currently face...

    Something has been nagging me all week after that Dee's game... We all know we are the hunted now. We know that teams will try and copy or emulate our style. Given the rule changes this year, the entire game is now faster and more free flowing - something that used to be our 1 wood. When we...

    Given the changes I wouldn't might betting Fletcher is repurposed a little bit more to wing... he needs to get involved more and get back to his old self so maybe they think this is the opportunity.

    Game Day Round 6, 2026 - Melbourne vs. Brisbane Lions

    Geez the half arsed tackle attempts from the usual suspects stand out in these super fast games. If Bailey thinks he's worth $1.6m or whatever ridiculous number it is he could actually do more than wave his arms in defence. Same goes for McCarthy and Ashcroft... Actually put some body on and...

    If you like the Zeekr have a look at the X not the 7X - it's a little smaller but they have just slashed the prices, maybe that would work? https://www.drive.com.au/news/2026-zeekr-x-price-and-specs-up-to-11000-cheaper-with-tech-power-upgrade/

    Came in here to say pretty much that mate, Geely owns Zeekr and Volvo - there are some similarities to the Volvo in the design and even some parts in the 7X. I've had a couple of performance Volvos and they are hugely underrated (actually their EV's are worth a look they just dropped the price)...

    All of this discussion points to just how complex this situation is. I'm not sure there is too much money in the world Nathan Barley - the problem is the distribution of it. WAY too much is concentrated in the hands of too few. And that may not be a problem unless their sole mindset is simply...

    Oh I've read about it. A lot. And while I agree 100% there needs to be policy modification there needs to be some context applied to this situation. For 20 odd years, under these same policies, house and in particular unit prices were relatively stagnant. Dig into it more and there were years...

    There is no doubt the last quarter colours your view on the game... had we lost I imagine there would have been some serious posting going on in here. Aside from the schizophrenic behaviour of so many of our players when you compare the first 3/4's and the last 1/4, what stands out for me is...
