Get on the Bandwagon
I was on a trip to QLD one week and I saw Bruce play his first game for the Lions reserves up at Apsley. It was a pre-season practice game.
I said to Mr and Mrs Ripper, "This kid is good."
I said to Bruce after the game, "Great game, Bruce."
He is good.

Just wondering people's thoughts on who kicked the best goal and took the best mark this year.
Brennan took an excellent mark against Melbourne.
Against Essendon I reckon Voss' was awesome and Brown's against Geelong 2 weeks ago. That one was special.
He left his heart down at Brunswick Street, Lynchy
He moved up here at the end of 93, to the then Brisbane Bears
He’s held a job down at full forward
And he’s really done it well
And it’s only Bradshaw who will learn
About the long forgotten darkside Fitzroy days
How there were no...
As we have 2 easy games, I reckon we should bring everyone back. They have easy games to get senior match fitness etc ready for Collingwood at the G in a few weeks time.
This would be my team.

When are Channel 7 going to show Stargate again?
They're lack of showing of Stargate is starting to **** me off. It's a top show and it's been getting better.
Any news on when it will be back?
Channel 7 - BRING BACK STARGATE!
Bluemoose is the only one who doesn't have 19 players on his team yet coz he hasn't taken his pick.

Tony Liberatore said today that he's after an assistant coaching role for next year and that he is particularly looking at an assistant coach role at Brisbane so he can work under Leigh Matthews with the best team in the comp.
To me this would be a good move. He will bring toughness and our...
Okay it's been said that Richo could be heading our way, so lets do a poll and see what other members have to say.
My answer is no as Leppitsch is an ideal FF which will prolong his career.
Who do you think is the most improved young player so far this year. I have put in these options and I hope I didn't forget some players. (Based on players who have played previous years. Not on players who have made their debut)
Richard Hadley
Ashley McGrath
Robert Copeland
Jamie Charman...
Just want to hear people's thoughts on F1.
After a superb game on Saturday and improving every week, do you think he's consolidating the number 2 ruck position?
I think he is. In fact, Keating will struggle to get back unless F1 or Charmo drop form or get injured.
I've been impressed...
With 17 players on each team and everyone selecting their 18th, here are the updated lists.

As you all know we've won all games against Geelong since the merger. So we have dominated them.
But there are some interesting stats.
At the Gabba our average winning margin against them is 46.8 points.
Down in Geelong our average winning margin against them is 41.4 points
All up in...
McGrath plays his best football down back so I think it's time now that Scott is back, that we play Scott forward and play McGrath back.
McGrath has been playing up forward a lot recently and hasn't done anything that flash, so lets put him back down back permanently where arguably he plays...
Big congratulations should go towards Chris Scott.
Was out for over 10 months and played like he wasn't out at all. Fits in well up the forward line and most likely will play there the rest of the year. This guy is full of class. Whoever said he wasn't ready, was wrong.
This was a...

Special mentions to the young players. MacDonad, Corrie and Hadley. One of them should get the rising star nomination this week, but who? Most likely Hadley due to consistently. However...
St.Kilda - They won't be able to handle the finals pressure.
Collingwood - If they make it, they will get done again.
Melbourne - I fancy their chances of making the big one more and more now, but we have already beaten them this year and will be able to beat them at the MCG.
Essendon...
Nathan Eagleton.
He has come good over the last 2 years. He will be even better in our colours. Can be used across the wing, up forward or from half back. Would be a nice pickup. I reckon they would go for Notting in a straight swap. Notting is inconsistent and will be no big loss to us IMO...
Just interested what you all think about Luke Weller?
Have you liked his performances when he was playing and do you reckon the club will keep him for the long term?
I believe his best position is CHF or CHB as he impressed in those two positions when he finally got a call up for us last...

Our new national anthem. What our olympic athletes will be singing when they win Gold. And what we will be singing before thsi years Grand Final.

Once our jolly Maverick camped by the billabong
Under the shade of his Brown bandwagon
And he sang and he watched as he waited till his billy boiled
Who'll come a waltzing Maverick with me.
Waltzing Maverick, Waltzing Maverick
Who'll come a Waltzing Maverick with me?
And he sang and he...
