Clackers Crackers
Ranked 11074 last year.
Would love to give it a shot. Hard not to pick 5 lions in the forward line!

We traded two late first round picks out of this year to get into next year. I'm not sure if this was in the recruiting teams thinking but this gives our players like Dev, Ely, Brock, Tom and James a year to press their case. Then we bring in some good talent next year. I would actually support...
I wanted to pass along what an a outstanding job the communications team is doing, including you LI! The digital content team, in particular, are probably the best in the league.
I think it would be nice if there was an aricle/video outling the work the communications teams does and maybe...
I think Seb Ross is very underrated on this board. The stats here show the level he is at. Interesting too that both lachie and seb were at poor teams this year. Imagine if we got both!

His goal kicking accuracy has been phenomenal. In fact second most accurate goal kicker in the league. This really helps when we are trying to build momentum within games.

Nah, never actually played aussies rules. I grew up in country central Queensland. Come to think of it, looking back now I wonder what in the hell convinced me to start following the brisbane bears back in the day.

Hey, I live in Singapore too. I've watched the draft via the AFL global pass for at least the last two years. I imagine it will be shown again. Probably won't show up until closer to the date.

Now that the dust has settled after the 2015 trade fiesta's finale I thought it might be interesting to go back and see how the club has addressed the holes put in the playing list following the GH5 trade frenzy of 2013.
To do this I looked at every player traded into and out of the Brisbane...
For all the lions supporters living overseas, the "digital membership" will be a great option. You get live streaming of every afl game and also get to be part of the membership base.
The preseason sure will be interesting this year. Players to watch out for:
Lester - if he can take a step up that will be a massive bonus to the side.
Paparone - shown a lot already but will he have a break out year?
Staker and McGuane - if one or both of these two get their bodies right...
Well according to Robbo he won't even make the bench of the All Australian team. It gets better though. Later we get to vote for the midfielders we think should be in the team. There is a list of 11 midfielders and Rocky doesn't even make that list.
I think Burton should be given massive credit for turning the team from final quarter fade outs to final quarter come backs. We seem to be a really match fit team, which is even more commendable given how young the list is. I am already excited for next year with another preseason into the boys.
The dream is alive people!
Collingwood d west coast (likely given they are being thrashed to half time)
North lose to either hawthorn or Collingwood (likely)
Carlton lose to Essendon and port
we win against bulldogs and geelong
Essendon don't play finals (likely according to caro)

We will play finals!
Other than...
Go to the ladder predictor and give it a shot. I had us finishing in 8th spot 2 games clear (with two losses to Richmond and Geelong). Not only do we have a good draw in our remaining games, those around us seem to have poor draws. Dare to dream!
I am so envious right now. I worked at Wesley College for 5 years. Would have been nice to just pop down to watch my team training on the front turf after work. A little closer than my current school ... in Singapore.
Some interesting selections. Of course we will not know anything further for up to another 3 years or so.
The thing that pleases me most about this draft, is not so much the guys we selected, but the fact that we have a plan. We got the players we wanted. The players that fit into the plan...
Yes, please pass on my thanks too LI. For him to spend the time writing such a large document during his busiest time of year demonstrates that he truly considers the fans a stakeholder of his. I don't know if this can be said of many other list managers in the league.
It wouldn't surprise me if Dan Rich improves his fitness levels again. Whenever I need a bit of a pick me up I just go and watch the last game of the season again to see him tear the bulldogs apart. You can only imagine that this will spur him on going into the start of preseason.
It is good that it is close. It will be interesting to see whether or not any of our young players can stand up and take the game by the scruff of the neck. I will be looking out for the likes of Docherty, Bartlett, Longer and Michael.
