    Lions in Melbourne

    Is anyone else concerned the Lions play four of their Victorian games at night? We're only scheduled to play one day game in Melbourne. I'm from the country (Sale) and can't attend these games unless I stay overnight in the city. I don't count Geelong as accessible. I would also like the Lions...

    Is Fitzroy dead?

    I wonder if we have to accept that the club is terminated? There seems to be a growing recognition that the VFL has a place in football, also that a promotion-relegation system could be introduced. I'd like to see Fitzroy become a VFL side in its own right (I didn't like Coburg-Fitzroy), perhaps...
