STK president Andrew Bassat has used the B&F to again tee off on the AFL’s draft system.
“The system is designed to favour the wealthier clubs and the northern clubs and our role is meant to be to just make up the numbers and not to complain about it… the system is nonsense.”
Chris Johnson’s heroic deeds on the field for the

have only been surpassed by his tireless commitment in working to advance the rights of indigenous people in the broader community since his retirement from

Enough is enough! It’s beyond disappointing this shit continues. The Bears, Fitzroy & the Brisbane Lions all have a long & proud history of welcoming & celebrating indigenous players. We are all with you Charlie Cameron. Well done to the supporter who called this out ❤️💛🖤

Some more good news. The season turned around when Stuart Dew turned up. I’d still like to see the club bring in Aker though to teach the players how to kick goals. We’d be unstoppable if we could kick straight 🐨
Stuart Dew will join Brisbane's football department full-time as an assistant coach. Knocked backed offers from Sydney and Port Adelaide. Big boost for the Lions after Murray Davis' move to Adelaide

Kozzy Pickett’s bump was a textbook case of what not to do when bumping someone and he should of got four weeks but McAdam’s, although big, was fair. Punish the action not the outcome 🐨

How good would it be if supporters were actually able to legitimately keep the balls that went into the crowds like you can in Major League Baseball. It’s not like AFL can’t afford it 🐨

“Levi Ashcroft lays claim to the greatest junior football career ever. If he was born just 2 weeks later, in 2007, he'd still be a year removed from draft eligibility.” He'll start preseason training aged just 17 🐨🏆

I remember trudging through the mud to watch the Bears play at Carrara in the 1980s. I always knew it would take a generation to gain respect in rugby league heartland. Look at us now. We’re the reigning AFL & AFLW premiers & participation at junior levels is at a record high 🐨
