McGrath Staying With Brisbane
The thought of going to the Tigers or Blues has kept small forward Ash McGrath with Brisbane. There was a chance he would enter the preseason draft but he will now stay with the Lions for one more year.
McGrath is not the only Lion to stay with the club after viewing the possible destinations in the preseason draft, the one-hand man Jared Brennan and defender Mr Drummond also had offers to move South but decided to stay in Brisbane.
From The Courier-Mail: Ash McGrath remains with Lions
If McGrath did leave, it would have given the Lions a pick in the preseason draft.
Expected order of the preseason draft:
1 Richmond
2 Carlton
3 Melbourne
4 Western Bulldogs
5 Essendon
6 Fremantle
7 West Coast

"Teams like Richmond and Carlton had earlier picks so I might have ended up going to Richmond," he said.
"But I have no problems staying with Brisbane. I really love this club and I think the signs are good this year that our future looks bright."
