JUSTIN Leppitsch has had enough of being asked about his coaching future.

Following Saturday's 83-point drubbing at the hands of Fremantle, the agitated Brisbane Lions coach unleashed in his post-match press conference.

He is contracted until the end of 2017 and has been guaranteed his future by CEO Greg Swann and deputy chairman Leigh Matthews in the past week.

While Leppitsch was unable to explain the horror show that occurred against the Dockers, he bristled when asked whether he felt safe in his job.

"Here we go again. Can we stop these silly questions? I'm getting a bit over it to be perfectly honest," he said.

"Why would you ask someone if they're gong to keep their job?

"First of all, if you said that to someone on the street, it's a disgusting thing to say.

"Second of all, ask someone who decides it, not me. That's the answer to it, so stop asking me. Ask Leigh, ask Swanny.

"I've got a job for 18 months to do and I'm doing it. Can we finish that right now? Done. Thank you. Next question."

TALKING POINTS: Brisbane Lions v Fremantle

To say Leppitsch was in a foul mood for much of the 10-minute press conference would be an understatement.

He described the loss as "embarrassing" and said there were 10 or 15 cringeworthy efforts.

He was being polite.

Their 11th loss in 12 matches this season – and 44th in 56 with Leppitsch in charge – was a shocker.

After scores were level at quarter-time, Fremantle dismantled the team that sat alongside them on one win prior to the match.

Leppitsch said his team did not do the basics, alluded to the fact they played soft, said they did not fight and admitted he was playing players that probably didn't deserve a game.

"You get a couple of punches on the chin and that's it, game over. I can't explain that," he said.

"We go into our shells, and that's a terrible term to use, but you normally fight back don't you? We're just not.

"We have to fight back better when that happens."

He also took aim at the team's leadership, saying when things got hard, they had to perform better.

And just how do the Lions try and turn it around in time to play West Coast at the same venue in seven days time?

"I'm sick of repeating myself. We're two-and-a-half years into this build.

"I watched the Saints lose by 77 last week and my old mob, Richmond (where he was an assistant coach for six years), lost by a big margin last week.

"You're going to have these days and no-one likes it but we've got to make sure we review it well."
