And give HSmith a run even it is as bad as that night Darcy gave Charman a lesson. Need to find out if the kid is the ruckman we need to replace Oscar.

Like you, I guess Conor gets a light run in the twos to make sure he’s fully recovered.

With Berry I wonder if he is not used in the centre square because his reaction time is a little below other players used in the square. On the other hand in general play which is slightly more predicable he can follow the play and match the more physical players. Evidence I guess is his success...

B******* Sunday. I’m at my aunts 90th Birthday

https://www.lions.com.au/news/1527879/vfl-team-announcement-tall-timber-named-for-roos-clash The Brisbane Lions VFL have named a strong side to take on North Melbourne in Round 3 Smithy’s VFL action. Ruck Darcy Fort and midfielder Deven Robertson headline four changes to a Lions outfit which...

Oscar was beaten last night, but from the first centre bounce to the last he looked at the ball not Gawn. This made it a contest which is all a player can do when up a much more talented opponent. I thought it showed the way for the team and reduced Gawns influence even though Gawn generally got...

Thanks for posting. He looks a good size and with long arms. Probably not going to be a big body mid fielder. Looks more a rangy type.

Real footy starts in April. Hopefully we win today and take a small step forward. We lose and I guess it’s baby out with the bath water and all the toys out of the cot.

Loving your work on this board Don, even though I don’t think much of your politics. Can I suggest you add the by line “Make Brisbane Great Again!” Real footy starts in April no need for knee jerks to 1 May.

Fake post!

But how many did he take in he forward 50? Not having a go just wondering. My impression is he seems to led up well to the wing and really attacks the ball. It’s when he is close to goal that he seems to try the Mickey Mouse pushed in the back move.

Two or three ,maybe four years ago Lester played a half in the seconds as an in side mid. I reckon he had 20 possessions and fed the ball out intelligently to the runners with most of them in that half. Hasn’t been played much as a mid since, maybe because he lost pace recovering from his back...

Thanks to all the comments from the game. Great to read some positive comments on our Board.👍

Looking forward to getting some feedback on how a few of the guys go. Big chance to impress for some of the fringe players, particularly keen to know how Prior, Madden, Joyce and Payne go. As I am still travelling in Tassie won’t get a chance to watch the game. Been in some remote parts. Hard to...

Agree and Berry had 7 disposals during the third quarter while those others went missing. At least he was still having a go when the Blues were dominating.

Yes that was another choice I really liked. Have a feeling Darcy will surprise on the up side.

Zane Zakostelsky, ZZ Top “Sharp Dressed Man”. The lad has a sense of humour. https://www.lions.com.au/news/1492758?fbclid=IwAR0IqbtUcWNjki4A78vb6tpE9PhyobSieRF5V7kmy0xabE2Z5puescIphlQ_aem_AVD-jySzwq-ujwFXZyF6OT2Tgj07KPITaZrjjNJooqaSLuqG1ltsqSDKpufJ97IKmwU

According to what was Twitter, Lane has 3 goals ( one “from a huge contested mark” ) and Ryan 4.

Could argue for Darryl White? Chris Scott? Chris Johnston?………..Ryan Lester?

The things you learn on BF.😀

How long was Kai back into full training after injury. ( broken collarbone?)

Any club wishing to attempt to revive his career, would not only have to worry about the effect on the culture of the AFL team, but also what the AFLW team might think about it.

The only interest i‘ve had in players weights is “how can those blokes be built like that and still weigh way less than me?”

Mods time to change the thread title? https://www.afl.com.au/news/1072891/2024-list-update-smithys-vfl COACH: Ben Hudson (second year – confirmed until 2024). STAYING: VFL: Tahj Abberley, Levi Ashcroft, Joel Budarick, Zach Derksen, Kyle Dunkley, Bailey Gordon, Riley Greene, Jackson Hille...

Really please his persistence is paying off. Hope he continues to progress.

I have very high hopes for Lohman. Really glad he signed up again. i recall one game this year when he had a run on the ball and gave out some really clever handballs from traffic to set up players outside the congestion. If he can combine this sort of play with his natural talent and athletic...

Always worth a bit of a laugh.

I would love to see a game at the Brunswick street oval but capacity would be less than that ground in the Adelaide Hills. Not sure I would trust the City of Yarra to decide and do an upgrade in the six year time frame. Expect very high NIMBY resistance.

Fort, competent AFL ruck, behind Oscar, then Smith maybe ruck forward approaching Fullerton standard but very hopefully some improvement to come, then Lane ruck only, i like him but long odds to develop into AFL level player, but young and very very hopefully some improvement to come.
