Heading into the 2004 season, the Brisbane Lions were on a quest to become just the second club in VFL/AFL history to win four premierships in a row.

In this episode, Jason Akermanis shares his disappointment with the AFL, revealing he still believes the league didn't want the Lions to win four flags in a row, which is why they were made to play their "home" preliminary final against Geelong at the MCG.
