BRISBANE is the standout club when it comes to goalkicking firepower ahead of the 2023 season.

The depth of attacking options at the Lions was underlined last season by the eight players they had who kicked 20 or more goals, three more than any other team in the competition (Sydney, Collingwood and Fremantle each had five).

LIST ANALYSIS Where does your club rank for age and experience?

The Lions are also equal top of two other goalkicking lists heading into this season; the most players with 100-plus career goals and the most players with 50-plus goal seasons.

Brisbane has eight players who have booted more than 100 career goals, equal top alongside Collingwood, while they also have three players who have kicked 50 or more goals in a season, as do Geelong and Melbourne.

The Magpies, conversely, are one of six clubs with no players on their list to have kicked 50-plus goals in a season, along with Fremantle, Gold Coast, Greater Western Sydney, North Melbourne and Port Adelaide.

LIST ANALYSIS Which club has the most All-Australians, top-10 picks?

Some of those six clubs may come as a surprise, but while the likes of Jamie Elliott (227 career goals), Michael Walters (315), Toby Greene (265) and Charlie Dixon (310) are prolific, they are yet to cross the 50-goal mark in a season.

And if Brisbane's goalkicking depth wasn't enough in 2022, the arrival from Hawthorn of Jack Gunston only adds to its firepower. The veteran has kicked the most career goals on the Lions' list and has also exceeded 50 in a year on four occasions, the fifth-most among current players behind Lance Franklin (13 times), Jack Riewoldt (nine), Tom Hawkins (eight) and Jeremy Cameron (five).
