    I think the difference will be that Amazon and Netflix are bound to bid. That's going to drive prices up regardless of who owns Fox Sports.

    Fixture 2025 Fixture Discussion

    Yeah, so much of the sustainable growth in footy comes from families going to the footy together and then continuing that tradition with the next generation. Family friendly time slots (I'd include the old 7.10pm start on a Sat night) might not be the greatest revenue generating games but it's...

    List Mgmt. 2024 List Management discussion

    I have been thinking through the Daniher Dilemma a fair bit. I really think that the answer is from within and I think it comes down to a very slight game plan adjustment. Pre-Joe, we played really good footy with two tall forwards and two rucks. Stef Martin was the dominant ruck and Oscar...

    Unofficial Preview Changes vs Crows - Round 17

    I've got no issue if we rotate the sub role a bit. I would try not to see it as a demotion but part tactical and part giving guys a bit of a rest.

    Unofficial Preview Changes vs Crows - Round 17

    I'm not prepared to make definitive judgment on just one game but, on paper, I thought our side looked slightly out of whack with no true winger and it wasn't until we made the change with Berry heading to a wing more and then introduced Fletcher that our game looked more solid. I think we...

    Review Round 13, 2024 - Western Bulldogs vs. Brisbane Lions

    I thought Rayner played his role quite well. Good forward pressure (21 pressure acts, same as Lohmann), hit the scoreboard, linked up play nicely and got his hands on the footy on the occasions he went into the midfield. I think if you judge him on his role, he more than did his job.

    Looks a bit out of whack with 3 rucks, another 200cm forward and only one listed tall defender. It's a super midfield though.

    Training 2024 Preseason training reports and discussion

    There are lots of different body shapes among First Nations players in the NRL over the years. Tall and stocky builds like Artie Beetson or Sam Thaiday, tall and athletic builds like Greg Inglis, short and stocky like Adam Reynolds, shorter and slim like Jonathan Thurston. Our game favours...

    Training 2024 Preseason training reports and discussion

    I doubt we'll ever truly know what a player is actually paid unless the system changes and there is mandatory release of that info. Player managers have a vested interest in inflating the figure (makes them look good to current and prospective clients). Clubs have a vested interest in deflating...

    Training 2024 Preseason training reports and discussion

    Coaches like unlimited interchange because they like control and predictability. They don't have to worry about "what if" as much. What if a player gets injured? What if I need to change a match up? What if someone is unexpectedly fatigued? What if my players are too tired to flood back in...

    He's a gun and I suspect we'd bite the Dogs hand off if they offered him in a trade. Dunno if we could afford him though, either in a trade or contract value sense.

    That's my read. I think it's reasonable to ask the RNA to stump up some funds (either directly or via grants) as they'll get the venue permanently but the sports? I mean, it's hardly a minor fitout for the tenants' purposes. Shitty politics.

    Game Day Grand Final, 2023 - Collingwood vs. Brisbane Lions

    Hey everyone, is it possible to get from the upper tiers to the ground level to see the players post match? I'm in the second tier but my son wants to be on the fence if he can when the players do their lap of honour. Just want to know whether it's fairly simple to get there.

    We've just made a grand final, the single most unifying thing that can happen with a footy club, and you've decided to say this? Even if it were true, and it's clearly not, it is shit timing and a shit attitude.

    Enjoyed hearing a Blues supporter say that he was going to barrack for Collingwood next week because we robbed them, only for about a dozen other Blues supporters to turn on him! I think the world will be barracking for the Lions next week.

    Even with a two year deal, the option is still there for Kai to request a trade if he's not playing regular seniors by the end of next year. Obviously a good outcome for the club but I think it still works for Kai in terms of his future. I think he needs to spend the summer getting super fit...

    Just read this apparent quote on the Port Board: "People can say we had some injured players, or some blokes who were less than perfect – I can guarantee you that if some of the replacements were put out there, it would have been a much, much worse result." - Ken Hinkley That's an awful thing...

    I thought Boak was ok too but I don't think it's the right move for our club. I think we've moved past that type of trade - he'll be 36 next year.

    He played with most of the current Lions team and was coached by (and coached with) the current coaching group. I'd be surprised if there were too many left at Hawthorn from the Hodge era. Doesn't mean he's a Lions man first and foremost but I can see why he'd be invested in the current Lions...
