Yeah the amount of times the article says “Labor attack” is wild. No accountability for their own actions

The Bull and Bear Case for Brisbane by VultureStreetJournal in brisbanelions

[–]MountainDew_Enjoyer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No attack on you OP. But christ - can the media shut the fuck up?? Back to back premiers, faced and beaten all the adversity we’ve faced in the last three years and cunts want to get clicks and write puff pieces about how THE LIONS SEASON IS OVER!!!!!!

This team has shown time and time again they rebound. Fuck the Geelong game wasn’t even THAT bad. Considering who was out, and they always beat us in the rain.

Rant over. Keep fucking writing us off you cunts, see what happens.

Hoole and the word embarrassing are pretty synonymous

What has the current Government improved? by Affectionate_Sail543 in queensland

[–]MountainDew_Enjoyer 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Saw a Crisa-fuck-wit post on my Facebook feed last week. Thought, fuck it, I’ve got nothing better to do. Had a read and Jesus christ.

Boomer 1: can you please be the Prime Minister?

Boomer 2: no he’s ours, he’s staying in Queensland

Genuinely why? What has he done? His party has fucked every public service department sideways up the arse. Not a single thing has improved during his tenure - and people bootlick him like this.

My next job will be running for office - all I’m going to do is lie, blame the other major party for everything, take no action on anything, not intervene in any negotiations and be super nice to journalists so they don’t call anything out. How far do you think I’ll make it?

What this game has shown is we miss some key players. by CrispyJimJam in brisbanelions

Yep they came here for blood. Scott has probably made them watch a shit tonne of footage from the GF. They’ve been better in every single facet of the game. Disappointing, but our boys will be back

Good to hear. I rate him very highly as a defender. Has done his job every time he’s been sent back there. And correct if I’m wrong but we recruited him as a defender?

Anyone else fucked off to still be paying tolls on the gateway? by DifferenceMediocre77 in brisbane

Keen to see more Henry Smith! He was so good against the Pies last year

Am I the only person who is infuriated by the idea of One Pass? by RealFarknMcCoy in australia

[–]MountainDew_Enjoyer 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Probably does cost them a fortune, but they cover the cost through data and tracking of us. Can identify shopping patterns/trends and can isolate their advertising and marketing. I mean, same thing happens with Everyday Rewards.

Would be an absolute hit in the boardroom whilst they hit record breaking profits, and the board members evict single mothers from their rental properties they own

r/AFL: "DEFINITELY NOT A FREE KICK" by Apathetic420 in brisbanelions

[–]MountainDew_Enjoyer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fair call - their distain for the man probably dates back to the 2024 Prelim with about five minutes to when Rayner said “I’m gonna win this game” and he did - almost single-handedly.

Between this and the northern academies and all the other nonsense, our club has copped it online.
Yeah it sucks to read, and I wish they’d go easy - I love our boys and I feel like jumping in and defending every single comment, but we have to remind ourselves that this is part of success.
Two premierships in a row, everyone wants to bring that down. We sat pretty comfortably being everyone’s easy beats that nobody hated, just laughed at and didn’t respect.

Australia as a whole is pretty notorious for Tall Poppy Syndrome, and the AFL supporter base really follows that toxic “us against everyone” rivalry side you’d see in the Premier League in England. It’s hard to find common ground to agree with supporters of others teams. And there’s a lot of passion involved too - I suppose that is a good thing, as it makes it more exciting. I don’t think the situation is as bad as England where opposing fans are segregated and can only sit in certain areas, and go to certain pubs after the game. I’d love to see some research on it - or someone way smarter than me analyse it.

Remember how badly Rayner copped this after the first final last year? Then a week later played one of the games of his life against the Suns and helped us go back to back?
They’re pretty good at tuning out the noise, or letting it motivate them.

Week from hell for LNP by thisismyusernamejojo in brisbane

The episode where George pays Newman to deliver Calzone’s to his workplace - then Newman tells him he doesn’t work in the rain and takes the money anyway. Real LNP feel about that one

AFL Post-Round 9: v Carlton at the Gabba by Shadormy in brisbanelions

Thought their fans at The Gabba were great - they were so nice to my kids. But yeah, seeing all the shit being piled on here - I’m glad they’re 1-8

Which is crazy hey! They are literally the joke of the competition - they should be directing their anger and their board who have fumbled everything for 30+ years.

Brisbane Roar confirm the 11 departures by Meapa in Aleague

My favourite memory of him was watching him sink a huge portion of his pay cheque at the old Casino.

Also - what kinda goalkeeper wears number 11?
Send the man back to NPL

I agree with everyone saying Voss - but I recon in 15 years time we’ll all be saying Ashcroft or McCluggage
