Happy to see Lyon on tv screen again. He is one of the better footy brains that on the screen when we normally dealing with the melons like Luke Darcy and the like that call every second player "an absolute star of the game"
Yeah, Gary has stuffed up big time with a long time mate and the mate's ex-wife. That has nothing to do with his actual football knowledge and ideas of our great game. That is about personal relationships what he , Billy and their two extended families are dealing with. He is an absolute fool for what he done and the consequences in the closest relationships of his life are now in a lot of pain. In time he will deal with the shit he has brought into his life. Whether Billy can ever forgive him truly, I seriously doubt it. Even if they talk again it will never be the friendship it once was. However in covering the game of football, no reason he cannot come back. He is human, made a terrible mistake and will live with the consequences. Hopefully he deals with it like a man but as he does start to get his shit together hopefully he feels comfortable enough to return to covering the game he loves in the media. I'm not expecting it any time soon though.
Perhaps he is trying to not **** shame his wife and the mother of his children.
Where did I say that?
I'm not a huge fan of Robbo. However, his piece on the Brownless/ Lyon matter in today's Hun is well worth a read.
The final three paras resonated with me. They were:

Which means what?
My comments were about Brownless being upset because his bro code has been violated. I haven't inferred or read any inference that she is a ****. I'm saying she should be allowed to determine her own choices and once separated, he gets to have minimal input into her choices.

Did Bill give a continental about his wife and the mother of his children while he was being a good ol Aussie Bloke and rootin' around on her for the last 20 odd years?
I don't care how new-age sensitive you are. I bet you couldn't handle it any better.
When she chooses one of his close mates....
Maybe, probaby, almost certainly, his wife wasn't OK with it. And had no "moral" guilt about rootin around on the big sook in return.
Whatever happened between them, only one of them is sooking it up in public for cheap sympathy.
You are determined to misconstrue what I wrote.
You said that billy concentrated on the male aspect and not his wife.
I implied that this was in deference to her reputation. He could have lashed out against her but he did not.
You inferred that I meant she was a ****. I did not and you could not reasonably infer that from my comment.
You should check the meaning of infer and imply before you use these words.
She did not seem the care about her best friend did she.
The suggestion that he's letting his ex-wife off the hook because he isn't publicly shaming her is absurd. She's irrelevant to the public interest. They're only interested because of his relationship with Garry which is at the core of these matters. If it was instead his best mate "Greg Smith", the story wouldn't get any traction outside of Women's Weekly.
Correct! It's a story because two of them are well known public identities. Also, betrayal and lies are always grist for the tabloid mill and social media.
Oh
come on, the only reason we are all here arguing with strangers is because they are public figures. By extension so are their wives. They get to have Louis Vuitton hand bags and mansions and when they misbehave We take salacious pleasure in the details
What! The wives are bit players in the public context.
It's about one public identity betraying and lying to a very good friend who also happens to be a public identity.

Or her wallet
it's all speculation.
It's not an ideal situation, but sometimes these things happen for a number of factors we aren't privy to.
And have all your choices in life been to the positive of everyone in your life?
