    Which AFL teams do Fitzroy fans support?

    Premier A is very good. But having watched the Lions v Werribee VFL Prelim live and the VFL GF on TV it certainly doesn’t look to me like the quality has dropped so far in the VFL to put it below Premier A.

    Fitzroy Fundraising Tshirts

    League Tees and Fitzroy have a new Fitzroy fundraising T-shirt out. I reckon this design is even better than last years, but less face it, I'm a sucker for retro style Fitzroy T-shirts. https://www.leaguetees.com.au/product/fitzroy-football-club-retro-athletic-shirt-official-2021-fundraiser-tee/

    News New Book - Merger: The Fitzroy Lions and the tragedy of 1996

    A bit left field, but contacting Dyson directly might be worthwhile. I doubt he's got any copies lying around and he's probably done enough interviews to last a lifetime. But as a high profile member of the legal profession he's not too hard to track down contact details for, and you never know...

    Do Fitzroy deserve a VFL team

    I've generally thought the fairest option in 1996 if the AFL were dead set on having to knife a Melbourne based club (as if that's solved the crazy imbalance in the AFL that still exists 25 years later), would have been to buy out Fitzroys AFL Licence and allow them to continue in their own...

    News Roys under council fee hike threat

    Here's a follow up article from The Age with what appears to me to be a pre-FFC merger pic of the Fitzroy Reds. Note the red shorts / all red socks and lack of hipsters on the hill in the background. It's been a while since we've hosted South Melbourne Districts at the BSO too.

    News Roys under council fee hike threat

    Many is the bigfooty poster who's brought themselves undone posting after a few of the cordials. I've seen a little backtracking from the council saying that meeting diversity & inclusion targets will lower the cost on clubs. I know that the clubs based out of the BSO would be better placed...

    Fitzroy Books

    During lockdown I've collected FitzroyPete's "Fitzroy's Fabulous Century", Russell Holmsby's "The Death of Fitzroy" and Adam Muyt's "Maroon and Blue" does anyone have any other Fitzroy themed reading recommendations?

    Match Discussion Grand Final re-match

    I liked the grand final clash jumper. But it's our home game so Parkdale should find a clash jumper.

    Match Discussion Grand Final re-match

    This will go a long way towards showing if Fitzroy can stay up in B grade. They will need to play better than they did last year but with that first win out of the way hopefully they will. Pickerings return to the forward line certainly made an impact in the first half. It'll be interesting to...

    Rd 8, 1996 : Fitzroy 16.11.107 def Fremantle 11.10.76 @ E.J. Whitten Oval

    I still regret missing that game as a 12 year old. It's on YouTube. You really should find it and watch it, the crowd vision at the end is something an old Royboy needs to see. Great stuff.

    MVP The "Tram Conductors"

    I propose some form of temporary membership. To be the same or a lesser cost than a full membership. Perhaps it can be upgraded to a full membership if they ever come back for a second time.

    There's a fair bit of space behind the goals. But it'll be parkdales end for the next quarter so it won't be quite as classy
