No current season stats available
In Gilligans AFL he probably is the most appropriatehttps://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/priority-picks-harming-game-20090804-ge80wl.html
Is this a fit and proper person to present the premiership cup?
Dude.
I think you’re a poster whose takes I may not totally agree with but would almost always respect where you’re coming from 99% of the time.
However this statement you’ve made here is just not supported by evidence. Even avid MFC people don’t agree with this when threads involving this player have been created.
Now if you had written - ”Lyon is one of the better forwards in the history of the Demons” I think you’d be much closer to the truth.
FWIW IIRC Sheeds was once a little bit provocative implying that Garry Lyon was a little too arrogant when giving his thoughts on the game for a player who really wasn’t that spectacular.
neeter ?Who else can they have as the face of the heartbroken former players not good enough to win a flag?
3 x AA, 2 x VFL team of the year player, Victorian SOO captain & Melbourne team of the century
And from 28 on wards hardly played because of a debilitating back injury
He was an extremely good football player, you don't rack up those achievements if you are just a solid player

He predominately played as a HFF'er who went back and had stints in the midfield. He was a bit like a James Hird type player although not quite as good. He wasn't a true FF like the three you names and to be fair not being as good as Ablett, Dunstall & Lockett doesn't mean you aren't still a ******* starExtremely good football player?
The data contained in this link definitely does not support your POV -https://afltables.com/afl/stats/players/G/Garry_Lyon.html
Career average of 15.73 touches and 1.88 goals a game. That’s not very impressive IMO.
Managed to kick 6 or more just 8 times.
Had 27 or more touches also just 8 times.
That’s not elite.
How he made the 1995 AA team is one of the mysteries of the universe. He played FF and kicked 77 goals from twenty games. In that era that was a pathetic return. Sav Rocca kicked 96 that year IIRC and nobody thinks he was a great player. Lockett, Ablett (in his FF years) and Dunstall would have been in the 100s after twenty games. Ablett in 1993 would have been at 140 if he’d played twenty games.
IIRC Gary Ablett Snr kicked double figures more times against Melbourne alone than Garry Lyon did in his entire career.
Why shouldn’t he? She’s a little minx and billy is a big fat potato.Get with your best friends missus
He’s a stain of a human.
Get with your best friends missus and then claim mental health to escape the criticism, then come back after just enough time hoping people will forget.

Garry lyon engaged in an affair. immoral, but ultimately a personal and trivial (to the wider public) issue.Scott Morrison should hire whoever is in charge of Garry’s PR.
Let’s not get into the whole fiasco of a few years ago that was very well swept under the carpet.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe Garry’s last act in any capacity working for Melbourne FC was to hire Mark Neeld as coach (in a director of football type role?) and then slowly walked away as the club moved about 4 years in the wrong direction.
Two years ago he was Melbourne’s biggest critic in his capacity as a football analyst. Questioning their culture and leadership.
Fast forward to 2021 and he is the biggest face outside the players and coach of the Dees premiership campaign.
Have I missed something here? PR team has done an unbelievable job here to make our Garry look very good…
