Does any one knows the truth of the feud between Gary and Todd?

  • Quote
    •  

    Long time ago, Garry one of Todd's best mates at the club, Todd decides to up and leave the game to be a tennis coach on the eve of the new season, without a word of warning to Garry (or anyone else at the club).

    Ancient history, time has well and truly healed all of those old wounds.

    What feud?

    And if Glenn Archer and Wayne Carey can get over theirs which was presumably more recent, surely any feud between Lyon and Viney can be overcome. In fact, I'll take a punt that there isn't and never was one.

    Yeah, it was only a nose slightly put out of joint, but they got over it pretty quickly.

    None of the previously posted rubbish that now seems to be deleted.

    Long before Todd briefly left the MFC to coach the 'poo, he was providing tennis tuition to young Demons supporters with stars in their eyes.

    I know this because I was one of them (along with Demonland's Andy)

    Todd advertised his services in what was then the club newspaper, and for a cool $80 an hour IIRC, you could have teenis lessons with the gun Melbourne midfielder.

    It was a small if extravagant price to pay to hang out with Todd..

    I certainly don't remember any of the tennis tips he might have passed on, but I do remember him lecturing us about the dangers of drinking and driving, as it was not long after the death of Darren Millane.

    / end glory story about how I was one of the first people to be coached by Todd Viney / B)

    Good contribution. Did you have a hit against Flip (Philloupoussis ?) at all ? Or is that the 'pooh?'

    IIRC Viney and Flip hooked up for a period of time.

    That's the "poo" HT.

    Fila-POO-sis (phonetically, of course)

    The Poo was such an icon for the kiddies wasn't he...

    Where does this rubbish come from? Do people have nothing better to do than make up stuff?

    Try reading the thread. Everything in it seems pretty accurate to me. Is it really a surprise that if Viney walked out Lyon would be [censored] off. Can you imagine Green would be happy if Moloney went and coached Bernard Tomic?

    You missed a couple of bullsiht posts that got deleted, saying there's a feud between them now.

    Which is unsubstantiated. Funnily enough the Op'er hasn't really expanded....

    What's the Poo up to these days?

    Makes guest appearances on South Park under the psuedonym "Mr Hanky"

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

      Melbourne wrapped up the AFLW home and away season with a hard-fought 14-point win over Geelong at Kardinia Park. The result secured second place on the ladder with a 9–3 record and a home qualifying final against the Brisbane Lions next week.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
