Notes The Lions' 1998 wooden spoon came in a year in which their National Rugby League neighbours, the Brisbane Broncos, won the premiership. Most of the players on the Lions' 1998 playing list would later feature in their run of three consecutive premierships between 2001–03.Rays of hope in Lions' historical record, The Courier-Mail, 10 April 2011
