What is so bad about Qld? I don't get it. (It must be something within the club).
Players have left GC too though.

What is so bad about Qld? I don't get it. (It must be something within the club).
Thanks. That makes sense. Just my opinion, but you probably could have matched anyway though. Pick 34 is only 345 points for you guys. You'd easily make up that deficit using some low-end pick trades. You may even end up with a truckload of points anyway. Rockliff, Schache will both get you very good draft picks, and your own will be at the pointy end. Brissy may even be packed up and heading to the bar by Round 3 - about the time Hawks are having their first pick
Whether we lose Schache or not or get a PP I am as confident as I have been since the glory years that we are on the right track with Swann/Noble/Fagan on board. There is a lot going on re the coaching/welfare/development setups that the vast majority of the general footballing public and most of the southern media would not be aware of, an announcement re our new adminsitration/training/AFLW game day field is also imminent.
We are finally heading in the right direction.
If it weren't for the government funding being pulled, the facilities would have been completed by now.No disagreement but when will the facilities be up and running? These things don't happen overnight and if it's going to be 2 years away, the club will continue to lose players.
How the fck it got to this is beyond me re facilities.
The facilities is a long sorry story unfortunately, we have an over 100 page thread on it on our board. The council has everything but said it is a goer and Gill met with the state government last week. It will be announced shortly although even when announced the construction is going to be about 2 years as you say. Ready to go for the 2019 season all going well, fingers crossed. We've had a few false dawns on this one though.No disagreement but when will the facilities be up and running?

To me you move (so do a lot of draftees) get a game due to the state of the list are in the long term plans/rather than get drafted to the premiers/a contending club and not get a game for 2 years before delisting. Live in a great location and make a shitload of money playing footy without the stress of the media or being recognised every 2 minutes.

I reckon this is a huge factor.I don't know if this has been mentioned, but has anyone seen Brisbanes training facilities? I watched the Lions train about 6 years ago (not sure if they have been upgraded since then) but it was genuinely no better than the u12-u14's facilities I had as a JUNIOR footballer. And that was a school oval and change rooms.
They need financial help off the field to improve this situation, it's no wonder the players want to leave.
Feel free to correct me if they actually have state-of-the-art facilities now like every other AFL club has. In which case, ignore this post.
Don't count your chickens with Swann. Was woeful at Carlton. Too busy with long lunches. Not much got done.Whether we lose Schache or not or get a PP I am as confident as I have been since the glory years that we are on the right track with Swann/Noble/Fagan on board.

Maybe brissy members need to start writing letters to local MPs.If it weren't for the government funding being pulled, the facilities would have been completed by now.
Not enough passionate ones out there to make too much of a blimp on the re elect me self interested politicians radar unfortunately.Maybe brissy members need to start writing letters to local MPs.

There was enough passion to get the club to back-down on a logo on the jumpers.
So why is there not enough passion to force any other changes?

If the club hates losing so much, they'll find a way to win.
Yer, it's so simple when it's put like that. We might have to tag Fagan, Noble and Swan into this thread.He's cracked the code guys

Results have established that.Our administration is so incompetent though, as Jeffdunne has established.
