    What's up with him?

    Starce is clearly not right and playing him as an inside mid doesn't fit where he is at in his attack on the ball at the moment.

    Review Round 20, 2025 - Gold Coast vs Brisbane Lions

    Poor Oscar is a shadow of his best self - missed the premiership and is now probably playing full of injections and highly compromised in terms of what he wants to do. I guess it is why the Lions are chasing a ruckman like Draper - we almost certainly have a hole to fill.

    Lingering contract uncertainty seems to affect player performance in many cases. Neither Ah Chee or Starce seem to be bubbling over in their enthusiasm for the game at the moment and neither of them are in peak form. It must be unsettling...

    Especially given that if Hippy had taken his chances and kicked his set shots he would have been a multiple goal kicker.

    Anyone got any insight on what Fages was cranky about on the bench when Zorko was off get his injured foot assessed?

    Review Round 19, 2025 - Brisbane Lions vs. Western Bulldogs

    So what is it with our set shot goal kicking at the Gabba and goal kicking in general - is it mental?

    Would be wonderful for Jasper to be a one club player at the Lions, especially given that his dad was such a good player for us but ended up playing all over the shop.

    It is really sad what has happened to Starce, particularly when I think of the Rankine hit on him off the ball and that concussion in particular. I would highly doubt that any player contract would be able to be written in such a way as to protect a club from a player being concussed and forced...

    My understanding is that Charlie has done a lot of mentoring work with Logan and Joe seemed to be helping him a lot on-field last year as well. I suspect these two have contributed significantly to his development.

    I assume match payments would make up a sizeable proportion of Doedee’s contract and given that he hasn’t played much footy, his contract cost to the Club so far would be much less than what it could have been? Is that how it works?

    He rarely, if ever, sends a message through selection but we are not privy to his conversations with players behind closed doors. Two things we know about Fages: 1. He rarely uses selection when players are out of form and almost always backs his best 22 players to the hilt. 2. He never ever...

    Preview Round 14 Brisbane Lions v GWS Giants, Saturday 1:20pm @ The Gabba

    Interesting that Fages has referenced Oscar's mental health several times over the last few weeks...I suspect his physical injuries and inability to perform at a level he would like to has worn him down.

    Not sure if it is accurate but Kane Cornes says that the Crows managed 9 high frees from ducking and lifting the arm with Peatling getting 6 high frees.

    The loss of CEO Greg Swann to AFL Headquarters is significant and is another key figure we have seen leave us for career progression elsewhere. From memory the Demons poached our fitness guru Selwyn Griffith to be their Performance Manager, the Kangaroos secured David Noble our Football Manager...

    A lot of those points were very gettable goals. Nail 3 of them and it is game over. Really hurts momentum.

    In that chase down the wing Lester did not look like giving up - as always he gave a totally committed 100% effort that kept the pressure on Weddle to muck up - which he did - just ask his Coach in the box.

    Pre-game there seemed to be a bit of positive energy out on the ground between Dew and a few of the players, including Ah Chee and Dew...almost like there was a bit of angst about the Suns. Great to see...

    If anyone was going to be managed, I think Zorko would be a good option - he looked like he was playing sore at times on Sunday night.

    One of our best team defence games for a long time - our tackling ferocity across 4 quarters was right up there. Suns players were hit from everywhere the moment they picked up a contested ball.
