message: we need to bring back the theme songs or the clubs as Wikipedia is the only site I can find on the internet that HAD the theme songs for the 16 AFL teams. now only Adeleaide has a song. When you click on the theme song, you are redirected to the clubs main article. Aflumpire 07:25, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

message: To say Brisbane only lost 2004 Grand Final due to an extra 2 days supposed rest for Port Adelaide is completely rubbish and biased. True Port had 24 hours difference in game time but hardly a reason to conclusively prove for encyclopedia article that caused the loss  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.7.183.131 (talk) 14:50, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

message: The season summaries are getting much too detailed. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia not a complete archive of information or blog. Think how this page will look in 5, 10, 20 years time. We need to be much more concise and erudite with the way this page is put together. Please try to keep the standard of English high as well. This page should be something we are proud of, just like our club.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by TheBrownDog (talk • contribs) 07:34, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Too much detail? 

message: An average is the sum of the crowds over the number of crowds. Just because there has only been one game it doesn't mean there isn't an average. This should not be removed just because you do not like the stat.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.76.170.68 (talk) 13:00, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Please read and understand the concept of Statistical significance and then you'll understand that the significance of 1 match is not enough to draw any conclusions.  If I plan to roll a pair of dice 11 times and get double 1s on the first roll, should I declare that the average score from this pair of dice is 2?  No, it means the significance of the deviation of the sample average from the true mean is not significant based on that sample size.  Be careful who you call Einstein.

thread_title:  Average crowd 

message: the following was removed with a comment that it should be on a player page -
:In an off the field controversy three Lions players were accused of gang raping a 20 year old woman.
It is a part of the club history, and is relevant. It is sourced. It should not be removed for reasons which are not reflected in the comments.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.76.170.68 (talk) 02:52, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I have replied to your message in the history board. Not isignificant. Not needed. --Shaggy9872004 (talk) 04:34, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: When the club captain is guilty of an assault, it is significant. When up to five players in the team are accused of a sexual assault, it is siginificant. Do not vandalised this page by removing unfavourable references to the team. You threaten the neutrality of the page by turning it into a pro-Lions mouthpiece. that is contrary to the spirit of Wikipedia, and you know it.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Brisbanelionsfan1 (talk • contribs) 05:03, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: First of all, giving a fair argument in removing information is not considered vandalism. Second of all, I see nothing about the club captain being involved and there are only two or three sentences on the other players of the club and no action was taken against them. Besides that point, Adam Heuskes only played 37 games with the club proving to having little impact and being insignificant to the club. If anythoing, this should be put on the Port and Swans pages as well. Last of all, this is only a small controversy in front of the other millions of controversies associated with the AFL so it is insiginificant. I see nothing on this issue on the Michael O'Loughlin or Peter Burgoyne's pages and only one sentencing not even directly referring to this incident on Adam Heuskes' page. Once again, not significant and not needed. Oh yeah and one more thing, that section is meant to reference the playing and significant history of the club (i.e. the merging of the the Lions and Bears) not for controversies.--Shaggy9872004 (talk) 11:15, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: P.S. We don't need to list all the controversies the Lions have had. Look at West Coast Eagles' page (nothing on the Ben Cousins' issue except on e tiny sentence and that's way more siginificant than this). And that's not how you put references down. Look below when editting.--Shaggy9872004 (talk) 11:18, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree. It should be on the other pages too. However, by removing anything that sounds detrimental to the Lions you are removing the neutrality of this article. Indeed, it is becoming obvious that you wish it to be a "pro-Lions" page. This is unacceptable.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Brisbanelionsfan1 (talk • contribs) 11:31, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Furthermore, the section is "Club history" and includes off the field descriptions such as these "Lions utility player Shaun Hart won the Norm Smith Medal as best on ground in the Grand Final. On the morning after winning the flag, the club took the premiership cup to the Brunswick Street Oval in Fitzroy, the original home of the Fitzroy Football Club. It was an important way of connecting with Melbourne-based Lions fans, many of whom had previously supported Fitzroy, and of winning over disaffected Fitzroy fans who had not started supporting the Brisbane Lions post-merger by honouring the history of the club. The Premiership Cup then made its historic first trip to Brisbane, a traditionally rugby league focused city." You are very clearly trying to only remove information that is detrimental to what you think people will think of the Lions. Thus, it appears that you are vandalising sourced, accurate information. Please stop now.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Brisbanelionsfan1 (talk • contribs) 11:36, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: First of all, that is significant to club hisytory because it connects to Fitzroy. Second of all, I didn't write that nor did I notice that in the first place (I noticed yous' because it was a new edit). Lastly, "appering" that I have vandalised a page doesn't prove I have vandalised a page. You have no evidence, and thus it should not be considered vandalism. Please leave the page uneditted until this dispute is sorted. I will now revert your edit and we should discuss this civillly before deciding/agreeing on what to do next.--Shaggy9872004 (talk) 11:42, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
