Brisbane Lions (1-11, 17th)
What’s gone right: The Lions have been in a lot of games but haven't been able to steal the win. That may not sound like something that's gone right, but for Chris Fagan to get some close-game experience into his players while they remain low enough on the ladder to pull a top three draft pick is a win for the Lions. Losing six of their games by under four goals, the Lions aren't losing as bad as many may have thought.
What’s gone wrong: They've only managed to win one game in the first half of the season. Staying low on the ladder is all fine and dandy if your team is winning a few games, unfortunately for the Lions they've only managed to pick up one win. A few more wins will definitely be helpful in attracting stars and quickening the development of their youngsters.
Best and fairest: Harris Andrews. Not yet known by the football world as a household name, Andrews has a chance to make the All-Australian squad this season. Leading the league in spoils, he is one of Brisbane's lone bright spots week in and week out.
Season prediction: 3-19, that's if the Lions can clean up their level of skill on the field. Already letting 'winnable' games slip, the Lion's don't want to become the team that comes close but never wins.
