Chris Fagan remembers when the Brisbane Lions were in Richmond's shoes.
"We would occasionally win against teams we had no right to beat," the two-time defending AFL premiership coach said ahead of their Hobart clash on Sunday.
The Tigers (2-10) sit second last, while the Lions (7-6), after three straight losses, rediscovered some confidence in last Saturday's defeat of Gold Coast.
They are aiming for a third straight flag and fourth consecutive grand final appearance, but Fagan has vivid memories of his early years at the Gabba.
In 2017 - Fagan's first season in charge - the Lions collected the wooden spoon but then upset Hawthorn, who finished fourth, twice in a five-win 2018 campaign.
The second of those wins came in Launceston.
