Go and have a look at their website and tell them they're denying history.
Everything says Fitzroy in their own right ended in 1996. Even Brisbane's web site. I'll even expand further.

Firstly I'd like to compare Fitzroy to Richmond from 1981 until 1996.

Fitzroy
Total games won: 137
Total finals appearances: 8
Total finals wins: 3
Total finals losses: 5
Wooden spoons: 2

Richmond
Total games won: 134
Total finals appearances: 5
Total finals wins: 1
Total finals losses: 4
Wooden spoons: 2

So from the beginning of 1981 until the end of 1996, even Fitzroy, who no longer exist in their own right, were overall better than Richmond.

From 1997-2015, Richmond have played a further 6 finals though, for 1 win, and added 2 more wooden spoons, so from 1981-2015, the following is the final total...

Fitzroy (1981-1996: 16 seasons)
Finals wins: 3
Wooden spoons: 2

Richmond (1981-2015: 35 seasons)
Finals wins: 2
Wooden spoons: 4

So Richmond lead Fitzroy in wooden spoons since 1981. Richmond also lead Fitzroy in the total number of memberships that have been microwaved to a shriveled crisp. Apart from that, I think the wrong team of the two are still existing in their own right.

This coming from the team that was captained by Nick Maxwell for years...

Yes Premiership Captain Nick Maxwell .... All Australian Nick Maxwell .... The Nick Maxwell who had won more Premierships in the last 36 years than the entire Richmond Football Club.

Nick Maxwell wasn't a midfielder. It wasn't his job to rack up posessions.

And that's "Premiership Captain Nick Maxwell" to you. Until Cotchin has the same resume he shall be known as "3 kicks".

OK. Won't waste time disputing your stats. You may or may not be right. Point taken.
Will dispute Fitzroy's existence. They have a supporter base in Melbourne (if that is what's required to be recognised as a valid team.)
The Brisbane Lions play in the Fitzroy jumper. FFC is on that jumper.
They acknowledge that they are the continuing existence of FFC.
Richmond's membership has grown since the microwave incident.
 
I'll make my way out.

In through the out door?
When did Nick win his 2nd premiership?

I admit it was a bit of a stretch to expect pies supporters to be able to count.
What? As opposed to the electrifying motivational speaker Figjam?

And in one blow, you have sent the Tiger posters into confusion. Utterly devastating.
 
So you paid overs for Treloar and you're crowing about it :drunk:

When the season starts and Nathan's boys continue to slide down the ladder, you'll have the knives out and be singing a different tune.

Fitzroy Football Club have a board on this forum...they exist in their own right and always have.
Pay a visit.

That's exactly what I've been trying to point out to your fellow Pies. Thank you. (EDIT: Hang on. You thought I was disputing FFC's existence. Please fully read my post and previous)

how much is richmond paying captain 9 possessions? Treloar is a jet, richmond are going to look silly when a handful of teams overtake them. Classic case of treading water.

Not disputing anything. I simply made you and others aware of their board.

Stop. Fitzroy in their own right have not participated in the AFL since the end of the 1996 season. That's what I've meant all along. I'm not referring to the merged Brisbane Lions or Fitzroy Reds who play in VAFA of course.

Better explain that to Pie Eyed.

Why did you put an apostrophe in "magpie's" and not in "tigers"? There's also one missing from "Coles" and "grapes" and "whinges" (whingers)?
They all end in S, FFS.
But seriously, you're being silly now. We're well over Treloar now. Admitted earlier that we got taken for a ride but so did the Pies, probably. He played a game with us to drive up his price and you guys paid it.
