Re: If Not BB, Who? Reply #450 – April 21, 2019, 02:59:08 pm I'm with you Paul, massive no from me. Lyon has a stench emanating from him that is not good... Whatever happened with that woman at the Christmas party sets a very poor example. Can't have a coach expecting players to adhere to codes of behaviour when he didn't. I spend a lot of time in WA and the dockers are treated as a running joke over there. They're irrelevant ..... Like a pesky and silly little brother by the Eagles' legion of fans. For good reason because they are the complete antithesis of the Eagles Megacorp. It's a shame because the Fremantles at WAFL level are solid clubs with long histories and very loyal, engaged supporters. Quote Selected

In defense. Now that line has consolidated, it's time for the others to follow. Won't happen this year but it will happen Quote Selected
