Interesting comparisons in this article.

Great article. Teams have gone up ladder quick, no reason why we can't. Mate of mine is an AFL bookie for one of major bookmakers and thinks we'll make finals next year

For the first time in years, wearing a Lions cap around has prompted people to make comments about us over the last few weeks.

The commenters seem to be two types: AFL fans from other clubs who mention that it is good to see the Lions improving this year. And non-AFL fans who have noticed that we have won some games recently. And one or two also added that it has been a refreshing change from all the NRL dramas.

Just today, theee people have made Lions related comments out of the blue.

Much better than being invisible and irrelevant.

Monday morning footy talk at my work is increasingly focused on the Lions. Broncos still dominate but Lions are getting pretty regular attention among those who follow all the footy codes up here.

Harris looks fine. Thank God or fate or whatever.

Yeah wasn't dominant but didn't look physically or mentally hampered in any way. Will be better for the run.

I would've settled for rusty but as you said not impeded in any way. He's fine. He'll be back to prime in no time.

Wil need to be back to prime for next week for Brown.
Good for him to get some miles in the legs.

I reckon even if he was in prime mode we'd need someone mindful to come off their man and offer assistance. Walker probably the leading candidate though he might not be smart enough just yet. Might have to rise to the occasion because I'd imagine Dizzy will have to deal with Ziebell when he's there and Wood when he's not.

Probably the dumbest post I've read on this board in a long time

There’s that other poster who worked his way onto my ignore list earlier today, reckon he might have the edge, but a solid contender nonetheless.

Dang it wasnt me.

Not sure if someone posted it but we currently have the highest average winning margin @ 52.3. We will lose it this week when the demons flog the suns though.

Yep - usually doesn't want to go but feels compelled to for family time. Usually reads magazines or book. Today first time she has said she is looking forward to game. Carlton win must still burn brightly in her memory bank. Or maybe she has a good book!

My wife come to the GWS game where Harris got KO’ed.
First time in 2yrs since the Sydney game in 2016 where we got within 3 points.
She has absolutely no interest in footy so like your wife it is just for family time. To sit there and listen to her husband yell and scream profanities all afternoon.

I've taken my girlfriend to two lions games this year. The first one she just laughed at the mistakes our players made and how I reacted to the highs and lows of the game. Second one she was talking about the strategy and was pointing out why the Crows had us covered I wonder what will happen at the 3rd game.

 

[Mazza44]

The fact that Ray Chamberlain is now umpiring our games means this hack’s career is almost done.

Moved to the coaches box.

Genuine quality, along with his partner in crime, Berry. 3 goals and lots of classy things today. Coming along very nicely
