If they fail, how far behind the eight ball will they have put themselves in the attempt?

Take the F1 (Ferrari), the V8's (Holden Racing Team, and to a lesser extent, Stone Brothers Racing), and the Commonwealth Games (Australia). All these events went through, or are still in, a rather boring and predictable phase.
If the Lions were to lose, they may not have to be just behind the 8-ball, they may have to be off the whole pool table.

Our sport is not like the Commonwealth Games and F1 (when were any of those exciting btw), it will never become boring, no matter who the champs are.

Yes, Brisbane Lions can win four in a row. Probably got as good a chance or more than the other 15 sides.

REB, is your email tag in any way directed at Big Dog?

KiwiinOz, Brisbane have spent many years with no real success, allow us to enjoy the fame while we can. Yes they will start losing at some stage, but instead of knocking them acknowledge the commitment and talent of the team.:D

My grandma was sitting at his table at a family wedding late last year, and got a photo. She had some idea he was pretty good at footy...

I DO acknowledge the fact that the Lions are a great team, with some of the best players of the game among their ranks. I was just trying to say that if they do win, again and again, the sport of AFL will start to become predictable, and that can't be good for any sport.
P.S - Before I get asked, I have no affiliations with any AFL club. I still struggle to understand the rules of the game.

I'm sure I've said this before REB, you are such a bitch sometimes!
Oh Yeah... GO LIONS!

Port and Collingwood might have letdowns after their double disappointments. The Crows are a possibility if Carey fires, and the Eagles will be thereabouts. And the Swans? Well, who knows what they could do. The Hawks have a dream draw. But none of them appeal against the stability and class of the Lions.
As I said last year, Lucy, enjoy it while you can!

Yes Chris still enjoying, biggest concern so far, is will Bushy re-sign. I see Alastair Lynch was even trying to talk him around (Age this morning).
Only other concern is should I take holidays at Christmas or now!Life's grand!
oh yeah... GO THE LIONS! :)
