Round 18 preview – Geelong Cats vs. Brisbane Lions Ah Geelong, the home of Ford, Eureka hotel and this bloke: Always a tough challenge coming up against the Cats at whatever their stadium is called and this week will be no exception. The last five The Cats have had the wood over us for a...

Source. Is this for real? In a truly national competition, are we accepting this as a legitimate reason for walking out on a club willing to pay him $500k+ per season after only two years? To me this highlights the need for either a longer rookie contract or compensation for first round picks...

Thought this could use it's own thread. Looks like there is a new policy from 2016. Source. Interested in getting peoples thoughts on this as it's an area that interests me. How much power should the AFL have to dictate what a player does outside of game day? IMV there is a fine but...

I know we have them every year, but there seems to be a large number of games starting as blowouts only to have the other team storm home; Round one - Collingwood lead by 50+ vs. Brisbane, win by 12. Essendon lead by 6 goals at 3 quarter time to Sydney and end up losing. Round two - GWS win...

Going to get in early on this one. As most footy fans would know, we at the Lions have not had a great start to the off-season. Sacked coach, spilled board yada yada yada; it's been a nightmare. And in the past 48 hours we have seen the emergence of a new supporter group known as 'Restore the...

http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/brisbane-lions-player-allegedly-assaulted-man-in-wheelchair/story-fni0fiyv-1226712976301 Well...this is just great.

Being reported on twitter that Daisy will have surgery on his troublesome ankle and miss the rest of the year. At best will miss 4-6 apparently. Really bad week for the pies with Fasolo being out for an extended period. Can they still finish top 4?\ Edit: link. Will keep an eye out for updates.

Per this article. Interesting concept, particularly as Hardwick was contracted by Hawthorn when he signed on as Richmond coach. Personally I can't believe how relaxed the AFL are when it comes to 'coach poaching'. We've seen some interesting situations with Bomber Thompson, as well as another...

WTF?! :confused: Who is that? And is there another source somewhere?

Just heard Matty Scarlett has announced 2012 will be his last season. As of today he is a two time premiership player, two time best and fairest, six time all Australian and International rules rep. Of course he has the chance to build on these over the next year or so. Funnily enough, I...

Link What are your thoughts? Personally I think he sounds genuine, but will have to live with the stigma for the remainder of his career.

Hey guys, Just wanted to share a website with you all, and thought this would be the most appropriate place. The site is www.listverse.com. It's a great website which is basically comprised of...well, lists of stuff. But it's better than it sounds, check it out! The home page has the...

Apologies if it has already been posted but though I would share... VuK6KIY2MiI ..Down for the Brown, classic. Also looks like Stewy Dew has shed a few kegs.

I was going to post this in department watch, but I couldn't find a link for it yet. The story is that he will be coaching Avondale Heights in the EDFL, which is actually the league I'm playing in at the moment (definately considering a move to play for Johnno :cool:). The reason I posted...

Link Apologies if this has already been brought up, but surely this is a PR exercise? Harvey cannot be serious - the Dockers have remained a basket case through some of the strongest drafts in history yet now they are primed? Please don't take this as a Dockers/Harvey troll thread. I...

Watching the final today I think we saw all sides of Bartel. Up there with my favourite non-lions player. In todays final he gathered a measly 13 posessions at almost the half way mark of the third quarter, yet he had 3 goals to his name. Can play tall(er) or small, and the way he can play as...

Just wanted to get some perspective on this one. This week we see the bombers fly up to Adelaide with a decimated forward line due to injury and suspension. They still have Hurley, but the kid is in his first season and can not be expected to do everything offensively, especially if he is...

Perhaps some Richmond fans might be able to enlighten me as to what Cogs has done to p*ss off Rawlings? This week we see Alex Rance, Jake King and Matt White. I know Rawlings will be sticking to the youth policy, hence these inclusions, but personally I would be putting Cogs in before King and...
