It may happen, it may not. Either way I am intrigued that there is still consideration to being shocked or surprised.
This is going to be a fun place to hang around IF Beams actually requests a trade.
We already know he is leaving in 2020 and we already know he would agree to a trade earlier...
Hello members, long time lurker and don't post very often but thoroughly enjoy the contributions all Lions fans make on this board. I'm just a die hard Lions fan based in Melbourne. Anyway, possibly the wrong place for this but I wanted to share my "positive" of the year, highlighting the fan...
Apologies, wasn't aiming for the 'pathetic' category.
Just out of interest which scenario do you think is not fair? Beams for 8&9, Longer for 19 and/or Docherty for 7&19? If all, I feel you are over-rating Longer and Docherty and Under-rating Beams in the current market.
I think there are...
Bit of a 'what if' based on the Beams rumours and article linking Lions with Luke McDonald (which I think is a bluff). I'm sure there are some holes in my scenario but worth getting out of my head:
1.) Lions advise Kangas to give us pick 7 for Docherty and pick 19 (or whatever Hawks rd. 1 is...
I'm still optimistic on Yeo, pretty sure that paragraph implying he wouldnt return under any circumstaces was regurigitated from the Polec story with the name and draft pick changed. On the other hand a journalist wrote a story in a newspaper about Yeo refusing to return to Brisbane under any...
The only club in a non-AFL dominant state that doesn't have salary cap relief under some sort of title. We simply cannot compete when, forgive me if I am incorrect, we are up against clubs from states that have access to lucrative third party deals that are not part of the salary cap. Certain...
If Geelong has sewn up a top 2 by the final round you may see them field a team similar in depth to the one they sent up to the Gabba in 2009. Don't write us off yet ;)
I actually tend to think a little differently but can understand the reservation. He may be worth the 'risk'.
1. Lester has generally missed games due to injury and hasn't had a run of senior games due to fitness from injury.
2. When he played in defence (and quite well) he wasn't dropped due...
Another amazing game by the greatest Irishman to ever play AFL football, Zach Tuohy! o_O
Maybe the Melbourne public and media will wake up to Pearce Hanley!
At the risk of being shown the door, would anyone entertain the thought of us trading pick 8 for Luke Parker + 22?
I rate him very, very highly.
2 late 1st rd picks to grab 2 x KPPs
Hopefully Melbourne play poorly this week so we get a win.
Maybe if port and the bulldogs play poor games later in the year we will get wins against them and push to 8-9 wins against teams that performed poorly.
Come to think of it, games against hawks, blues, bombers and pies the lions were...
Mist lions supporters can't understand why the predecessors did half the things they did. Non lions supporters will just lay the blame with loss, its a better story!
Like all teams, just because they aren't playing seniors doesn't mean they don't have them developing. If it was a Victorian team we would be hearing daily about the 'superstars' on the playing lists who will be playing in the future as they get older. That won't get a mention for Brisbane and...
Ahhh, that old chestnut nut: 'only won because the opposition played poorly'
Was wondering why the tigers were winning games.
In all seriousness, I'm a firm believer that you only play as well as the opposition lets you.
Still some way to go but credit where credit is due.
After last night here is my team for Rd. 1 taking into consideration we are playing Melbourne at the MCG.
