[pjcrows]

Who?

 

[Thrillthorpe7]

Never heard of him

Me either haha, but from a well run premiership winning football program, that can only be beneficial

 

[baldandbroke]

That is good news.

Not that I know the guy, but he’s not an ex-crow and he’s not Scott Burns!

 

[jenny61_99]

Right… well that’s not who I thought it would be. I knew it was Brisbane but didn’t know the who - that surprises me.

 

[whattagun07]

The blowfly

The fly

Sorry Matt

FR0GGY

 

[FR0GGY]

So burns is leaving or getting demoted?

 

[Viva la Mattner]

Right… well that’s not who I thought it would be. I knew it was Brisbane but didn’t know the who - that surprises me.

Who was it you thought Jenny ?

 

[Danger in Texas]

Lions forward coach, has held many different roles since arriving there in 2011 it seems

Why not

 

[croweater 41]

Anyone else seen the Keays video on X today?

Worst thing I may have ever seen but creates a bit of a rumour none the less. I’ll find it in a second no idea who he is meeting with in it.

Apparently nicked from TikTok so even more reliable

Far out I didn’t think you were that wound up!

Who were you thinking?

Is that the Bulldogs thing? Doubt there’s anything in it

Deep fake?

 

[Mutineer]

From the Rooms: Rd 24 Murray Davis

We speak with Lions assistant coach Murray Davis after our round 24 win at the Gabba

www.lions.com.au

 

[FR0GGY]

So Davis is Peatlings uncle?

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Apparently their forward coach this year... after stating off as their runner.

 

[MarcusP2]

Lions forward coach, has held many different roles since arriving there in 2011 it seems

Why not

Premiership winning coach of the NT thunder before that, been through a bunch of coaches, a rebuild since rock bottom, seen a place turn from poison to attractive to recruits....

Not high profile but some positives.

That music should be reportable

Edit: So no Wright then it seems

 

[Mr_Moogle]

In what universe does us being a particularly unsuccessful team not make that challenge an even harder sell than it already is?

It's hilarious that the club arse lickers never make that connection.

 

[jenny61_99]

Who was it you thought Jenny ?

I thought the only person who had the experience out of both Sydney and Brisbane was Dew. I had been told the announcement was this week, that it was someone from a team playing in the GF.
