AFL Brisbane Lions - 2025 AND 2024 Premiers

[_wwong]

Flood gates are wide open now.

 

[Super Freak]

It's all over before half time.

 

[Allo]

This was effectively the score in last year’s GF and it’s only half time. That’s either very bad or very good for us.

Right now it’s very bad

 

[Allo]

Umpiring is disgraceful

 

[Sproj]

They were always outsiders and North can’t miss, so makes it pretty much impossible for them.

Umpiring is straight ignoring almost everything for North and pinging us for less. It’s ****ed.

We’ve been bad but we also have to work against the enhanced momentum

 

[_wwong]

how is our skill level so much worse than them

 

[Allo]

It’s like we’re playing with a bar of soap and they have a velcro ball

So poor.

I think we’ll either see a huge change in personnel, and/or Starce walks away

 

[_wwong]

Our biggest losses in recent times have been to the kangaroos. They’ve been absolute beltings. They’ll be our bogey side for a long time to come. The storm curse has been passed onto the women’s lions team.

 

[Sproj]

Come on WA!!

 

[Sproj]

Boo!

 

[Sproj]

WA struggling now.

 

[Brocko]

Do AFL fans actually care about this game like NRL fans do Origin? I know this is brand new really, and does look a good crowd

Not the same level because they haven’t had it in ages but that’s a sell out crowd.

They really need a four team series: VIC, WA, SA and Allies (Everyone else)

 

[Bull Shark]

Not sure if there’s going to be a 2026 thread or we’ll just tweak the title of this but, what’s the deal with the way this season is shaping up ??
Admittedly I don’t pay much attention to player transactions but just had a glance at the futures market for this season and it looks like a lot of the traditionally / recently strong clubs have fallen off this year or are heavily tipped to?
Collingwood, Geelong, GWS all well down in the premiership betting.. Gold Coast second favourites??

 

[Sproj]

Yep GC are probably going to be our main challenger along with Fremantle, though their coach is a handbrake.

We should win it, our list is the envy of everyone. Even half injured we’re still too good. We’re as good as chance as anyone in history of going three in a row

Can you imagine the hand wringing & **** fighting in Melbourne if we had a final four of Brisbane, Gold Coast, Fremantle & Sydney in late September ?!

Hehe yep. It’s already happening with the vitriol against the academies. Even outside the four you’ve mentioned, the next best is probably also not Victorian in Adelaide.
