I would say we would have no players on a Million dollars +, Lachie Neale in the 800-900K bracket would be my guess as our highest paid player.

Kimmel: “On gravel, that’s not kidding around.”

Blanchett: “They lose a lot of players but … it’s why the population’s really small.”

Blanchett: “And the hole in the Ozone layer is right over Australia so it’s really, it a very very difficult game. So that was nothing last night Patrick.”

Dayne will give a great loves youse all introduction speech.

 

[MSB ROYS]

Beams played well for us until his father died. Certainly went of the rails after this. He will need to do a fair bit of training to get back in shape if he hasn't done anything since being on TV.

I imagine we get to see this change at the Cats game. Possibly the Sydney game.

The AFL should be congratulated for the new umpire system, but it won't change much

Why don’t you write up the preview for round 1 then?
It would be quite an entertaining read.

Preview writers 2023

One of the most highly regarded ways any poster can take part in the Brisbane Lions board is contributing previews throughout the year! We've had some high bars, some low bars (ZoBlitz dlanod) and generally great contributions all around so come on down everyone who wants to point their hand...

I did do the Port game a few years back - I'll happily go again if it's yet to be allocated, abso-****en-lutely

So long as everyone realises I'll be spending ZERO time analysing Port, since.....THEY ARE TRASH, ALL DAY, EVERY DAY, UNTIL THE SUN COLLAPSES

I will, however, spend time outlining the MYRIAD of ways our lines (B/HB/C etc) are so superior that it challenges the Oxford Thesaurus to conjure up sufficient superlatives

Round 1 is always a hard one to write a preview on.
You have no previous game form or teams named to go on, and only 1 official trial that's only available on Kayo or Fox.

So, a completely biased write up by Sausages fits the bill. What could go wrong other than the result.

Looking forward to you setting the standard for 2023.

Well Section 5, all I can say is I will (likely) set a low bar that subsequent contributors can improve on lol

But Round 1, we'll all be full of beans, excited and with varying levels of confidence, trepidation and desire to not invest too heavily in lids and operations

Dunks might have started the migration from Bulimba/Morningside/Camp Hill to closer to Brighton Homes Arena.... not all that much closer though.

has snapped up a gorgeous new pad in Brisbane for a cool $2.265million.

Located 4kms from the CBD in the sought after suburb of Paddington, the sprawling two-storey home boasts five-bedrooms, a pool and a wine cellar.

Josh, 25, bought the property in December last year after Melbourne's Western Bulldogs traded him with the Brisbane Lions in October reports News.com.

According to the publication, Josh purchased the home with his beautiful girlfriend, Tippah Dwan, 23, who plays for Adelaide in the Super Netball.

Designed to combine its vintage features with modern luxury, the couple's new home sits on a 405 sqm block and boasts an expansive layout.
