When Norm Johnstone from Fitzroy was injured once he stated that his injury happened when he trod on his penis.

Robert Walls?

I'll have a crack again

Harry Beitzel?

This arseholes behavior when Fitzroy were "merged" with Brisbane was beyond the pale. Apparently he was in the Fitzroy offices when the fax came through that effectively finished up the Roys - and was gloating in front of some very distressed Fitroys people who had for years tried to keep us...

Mick98, believe it, because it's true. Just imagine if, one day, Collingwood no longer exist. Would you, all of a sudden, be able to pick another team to barrack for? And before you start on the Fitzroy merged with Brisbane thing, the merger of Fitzroy and Brisbane was like your local...

Not a troll, nor am I dull. Am watching the NAB cup at home with some AFL fans in Sydney, and they asked my opinion of whether Buckley would succeed as a coach. I said I didn't think he would cut he mustard as a coach and thought I would see what other people thought. I rarely post here...

I have no idea what you are talking about

Unlisted, because I don't follow anyone anymore after Fitzroy got arsed by the AFL. This is just an opinion by the way....

This may have been covered before, but I'll claim being the first to say it. He didn't win a premiership as a player, and he won't win one as a coach. The pies did the wrong thing in retiring Malthouse, and whilst they will still do allright this year, the arseing of Malthouse will come...

I tried and tried to get on the merger, but it never, ever felt like following the Roys. There was one opportunity that was missed by Michael Voss to get me, and I would imagine a whole lot of Royboys on board - he thanked all of the supporters up in Brisbane (and so he should) and then...

I just read that Brad Hodge has now retired from all cricket bar T20, and he is still bewildered as to why he didn't play more tests etc... I remember seeing a young Brad Hodge off his head more than a number of times and I suspect this may have had a lot to do with not being picked more...

Agreed

I downloaded the ABC podcast from the other week - gee it was hard to listen to. In fact I had to stop about half way though it as I was on a bus and felt like bawling my eyes out... I know I will never get over us being arsed by the AFL enough to follow the game properly. Watching...

At least this bloke would show more commitment than most of the blokes who dished up that bubbling pot of crap yesterday against Carlton (the bloke standing behind Danny Frawley is the man in question) http://youtu.be/weGByklyMsQ

I could never stomach any of it, but there was possibly some light at the end of a very dark tunnel when Brisbane won their first premiership. When Michael Voss was presented with the premiership cup all he has to do was say the F word - but he said something along the lines of "our Melbourne...

Hey, maybe I should have posted this on the main board - sorry if I have upset anyone.

Hi I am a fairly indifferent follower of the AFL (ex Fitzroy supporter who is still embittered), and to be honest I don't pay that much attention to the goings on of the game nowadays. That being said, I am just watching the footy tonight and I just can't understand why Richmond being crap is...

I think one of the worst was the Michael Gale, Matthew Dundas, Paul Broderick and Jamie Elliott swap for a busted Jeff Hogg. That trade was the beginning of the end for the Roys. I heard that one Richmond official felt guilty about this trade and offered the Roys some compensation - at the...

David Reyne might have the answer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-rzna9O0wM

Fellas As an avowed atheist, I have always had a slight aversion to people saying "bless you" when I sneeze, and as such am not the kind of bloke who says "bless you" when someone sneezes. Now I have a new girlfriend who would always say "bless you" when I sneezed (she is American, hot and...

Does your old man have any other tales from days of Roy yore?

Re: Classic Fitzroy matches What a game - my main memory is the train ride home. My mum told me to keep very quiet until we got to Richmond..and Monday morning at school was fantastic. Was a good year 79 - the first time in my lifetime that we were a good side..

here you go

What ***** the AFL are - they let us go, with all our tradition etc and yet are prepared to ping 200 million into this folly... Makes me cross (shakes fist at the sky)...

Re: Roys FC (Gorillas) Fantasy Footy Club - can they be reborn? Sounds good :)

Re: Roys FC (Gorillas) Fantasy Footy Club - can they be reborn? Count me in too.. No preference for number either

Agreed, especially seeing John Wren isn't around any more to pay off your opposition..

Our record winning margin against Melbourne which was set in 1979 which still stands -190 points!! Was there at the game at VFL park - boring as bat pooh - the only thing that made it exciting was whether we would break the record.. Apart from that there hasn't been too much since 1996...

I am pretty sure I will never get over the fact my side no longer plays at the highest level. We were treated like a red headed step child by the AFL, and whilst I try to watch the modern game, it just isn't the same. Gee I wish we had been able to hang on for a few more years and had...
