Brisbane Lions drafting and trading history

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Brisbane Lions' drafting and trading history has lasted almost as long as the club's existence, with the club first drafting in 1996 and first trading in 1997. The club was founded in 1996 following a merger between the Fitzroy Football Club and the Brisbane Bears. This page does not include any drafts or trades performed by those two clubs. It includes drafts and trades from both the Australian Football League and the AFL Women's.

  1. ^ Hanley would not normally have been eligible to spend a fourth year as a Category B rookie for Brisbane, but the AFL allowed the Lions to retain him due to persistent injuries for his first two seasons on the list and the death of his brother, Tommy Hanley, which resulted in a break from football, in his third.[4] Confirmation Hanley would remain with the Lions was announced on 27 November 2017 after he was overlooked by the other 17 AFL clubs.[5]
