The Brisbane Lions are facing regarding player commitment. Their AFL title defence has sparked trade talk. Caroline Wilson reported on Lachie Neale's contract.
In the CFL, the BC Lions host the Montreal Alouettes in Week 3. That game is Sept. 13 at 4 a.m. CET, or 10 p.m. ET Sept. 12. The Detroit Lions get ready for their NFL opener against the New Orleans Saints. Observers say last year's win over Chicago gives them something to build on for the postseason.
