Two sets of brothers are set to be reunited at the Brisbane Lions in 2015 – further strengthening the Club’s staunch family values.

Dayne Beams’ move from Collingwood will see him come together with younger brother Claye at the Lions, while Cian Hanley will travel all the way from Ireland to join older brother Pearce at the Club as an International Rookie.

But it won’t be the first time that brothers have appeared in the maroon, blue and gold.

In fact, five sets of brothers have represented the merged Lions in some form since 1997 – yet only two have actually played alongside each other in a senior AFL match.

Twin brothers Chris and Brad Scott are clearly the most notable, playing 215 and 146 games respectively for the Club, and sharing in the spoils of two premierships together.

Although they currently hold senior coaching positions at rival AFL clubs, both Scotts are Lions Life Members and will forever hold a special place in the Club’s history.

Club Legend Michael Voss and younger brother, Brett, also appeared in the same Lions’ side on a number of occasions from 1997-2000.

The Voss brothers later lined up as opponents following Brett’s move to St Kilda.

Daniel and Darren Bradshaw, meanwhile, were at the Lions together in 2002, but failed to line-up alongside each other in a senior match.

While Bradshaw senior proved one of the Lions’ greatest ever goal-kickers, younger brother Darren managed just the one senior match – coincidentally replacing Daniel in the side.

The Bradshaws later went on to prove a lethal combination up forward in the Hume Football League.

Andrew Raines and older brother Nick also had separate stints at the Lions, as did Cheynee Stiller and older brother Jeremy.

Jonathan Brown’s younger brother Tim also trained with Club at the end of 2006 in the hope of getting selected in the Rookie Draft, but was ultimately overlooked.

The family ties don’t stop with brothers either, with the Lions committed to selecting Josh Clayton – the son of former Fitzroy best and fairest Scott Clayton – at next month’s NAB AFL Draft.

Jordon Bourke also boasts a strong family connection to the Club, with his father Damian a former player with the Bears and Assistant Coach with the Lions.
