Universal Love Welcome Aboard Allen Christensen!

[Kernel Kurtz]

Look up in the sky its a bird, its a plane no its another member of the Bris Lions Mosquito Fleet.
Able to kick multiple goals in a single game , run rings around slow tall defenders , piss opposition fans off.

Ah yes things are looking very positive at the moment.
Great acquisition, welcome aboard the Lions Christo.
We can never have too many of these guys , exiting times at the Gabba next year.
Who's next, day is still young.

Firstly, well done on getting such a great young player - it's going to make QClash magnificent this year.

Secondly, and rather off topic, I thought the Lions were reverting to the old premiership-era logo for 2015? Why isn't Allen wearing the new logo? (sorry for noob question)

 

[chopperduck]

We are for next year, that gear hasnt been released yet. He is wearing this years gear.

 

[LifeSpan-Void]

Hope he does well in the lions jumper, pick 21 might have been a tad to much But who gives a f;!$. he's a lion now

Believe me, you'll look back on pick 21 as a bargain for Christensen.

Jumper is changing back, logo isn't.

Pretty common that the jumper and logo are different identities for AFL clubs. Geelong even has two logos (marketing and traditional).

 

[piari]

Well done Schwabby.

Good job.

Keep it up.

Rest assured...this boy can really play.

Are you for real? Brisbane has absolutely bent Geelong over here. 21 is massive, massive unders for Christensen.

Agreed. We're really getting away with it a bit here.

 

[Devz15]

Give us the Beams one now, we know you have it

This is a real threat

I don't have it, I swear

While I am happy with Christensen and giving up 21 for him. If I am brutally honest, I am surprised we didn't push harder for pick 25 to be the trade considering he is out of contract. Why I say that is because it doesn't seem like we were returned the favour of getting more than the bare minimum for our players last year. E.g. the Carlton situation where they had pick 32 and 33, but we ended up with 33 because he was out of contract.

As I said though, still happy giving up 21, especially if we still get D.Beams.

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

I don't have it, I swear

Just tell the truth yes or no, then we can decide but you don't have to show us

 

[Vipertooth]

Steal of the year, what a change a year can make, we got the right people at our club and I have never been prouder of my Lions (except maybe the premiership years )

Welcome to the Lions Den Allen, I hope you are excited about winning more premierships

 

[irish]

great stuff welcome bundy !! just what we need , thanks cats for being gentlemen to deal with, others should take note of your approach

 

[HowYouDoin]

Somehow geelong supporters assume we screwed them with this trade.

Sigh!

Leppa and the Scott brothers may have a few gentleman's agreements in place.

Exactly how most of us felt when a few of the GH5 departed last year.

 

[BL_dobsmob]

New we have two premiership players from Geelong (Trent West in 2011) - Lions site needs updating saying that Allen is the only one.

Thank you Geelong.

 

[CM Sean]

Brisbane are going to look pretty dangerous next year. Add in Beams, and it's pretty damn exciting for you guys. Bundy's a great get. Well done

 

[SizeMatters]

The second fastest midfield in the game now. Two years ago we had one of the slowest.

 

[Barnzy]

Absolute steal. I would've been happy if we picked him up with pick 12.

 

[Gippa]

Really happy with this trade. Here's hoping he can produce similar form from the catters.

 

[Nunez]

What personal issues is he working through out of curiosity??

Getting the wrong girl pregnant. It happens.

Welcome Bundy.
