    Its Time........

    Mate, good luck with your presentation at the AGM, I have lobbied both the Board of the Lions abd the AFL for EIGHT years on this subject with only the standard political responces, as were heard after the 2005 Fixture announcment. You say not to hang it on the club, it is the club that has...

    Its Time........

    If you combine the responces of the AFLs Ben Buckley and the Brisbane Lions Michael Bowers last week over the mutual merger breech, you get an exact transcript of pages three and four of Ian Collins autobiography" How to stiff Fitzroy people and remain completely blameless". The crowning touch...

    5 Victorian games in 2005?

    If Thursday reveals that the Lions will play only five games in Victoria next year then both the AFL and the Brisbane Lions should be held responsible for this staggering setback to interclub progression. The continuing contract with the Melbourne Football Club has, it would seem, backfired on...

    The great Pike

    Did anyone else catch the footage of Pikey at the end of the most recent destruction of Collingwood with the game ball shoved up his jumper walking off the ground, clearly saying to aka "To fat mate"? In my opinion, this leaves Sheeds jacket waving sadly lacking and in his honour (Pikeys) I will...

    shotgun wedding

    Dont be so hasty to completely towel this guys article, some of it is totolly lucid and historically factual. The history given behind the birth of the club is as concise as ive seen and some of the emotions described in the article regarding Fitzroy people, I could relate to, especially in the...

    Marlins expose failed presidents

    Never again will we have to endure the hollow words of the failed presidents, Eddie and Gra Gra. Their bleeting and whimpering over the Lions retention allowance has been exposed by a team consisting of nine men in New York. The Yankees baseball team is paid US$130 Million more than the...

    Wearing the Bears jumper in the future

    If the club is wise, it should create its own blockbuster or status match. It could do this by wearing the Fitzroy jumper once a year against Collingwood in Melbourne and the Bears jumper once a year in Brisbane against the equivalent rivalry. We have come very far in recent years and shouldnt...

    One of our own, or a provocateur?

    I agree lioness22, there was something special about 97, it was all new and unknown. My first memory was joining up with a bloke in a Bears jumper, me in a Fitzroy jumper and both of us verbalised a loudmouth Carlton knuckle and it totally freaked him and his mates out, an unsung merger moment...

    Why Port Adelaide?

    Hasnt anyone even got a throw away line about the basis of the whole thread? Chad Cornes said on tv that he and several other players including the Captain, were not happy about wearing the Port jumper in round 19. If M.Voss uttered such words, comments would be flying thick and fast. Fire up...

    Why Port Adelaide?

    You guys have missed my point. I dont hold Port responsible at all for the events of 96, they like Noel Gordon simply had to play the role of someone recieving one of those oversized goofy cheques and smile, and yes Fitzroy was replaced, 17 does not fit into 16. I was only pointing out that...

    Why Port Adelaide?

    Last night on "White Line Fever", Chad Cornes said that he felt very uneasy about having to wear Ports traditional black and white jumper in round 19 and that there were many other players including Matthew Primus,that felt the same. It has always puzzled me why Port was chosen to replace...

    Federation round

    Initially, I prefered the 96 re-enactment jumper because it was the very first. It is pre Federation and a powerfull image of the foundation of 113 years of history but when everyone started to refer to the white ffc jumper as the "Kevin Murray jumper" it occured to me that we must take every...

    Chris Scott's catholic school upbringing has had negative effects

    Please. Puting St Kilda and finals history together is like serving a **** in a fruit salad. For Brisbane Lions people, 1997 is as far away as their grandfathers first tish. Timbo. :eek:

    Chris Scott's catholic school upbringing has had negative effects

    Many punks take it up to the Scott brothers and the Lions in general, but it never comes off a second time , especially in finals, the one and only test. Timbo.
