Maybe it's the two devastating finals losses we dealt the blues during his reign.

Those were the days.

    Seriously, I can't remember the last time this bloke said anything positive about the club. He seems to just...hate us.

    Tonight on AFL 360 it was questioned as to why Lyon would turn down a coaching role at Melbourne to go to the other side of the country. It was as though someone had shoved a lemon in his mouth. He basically considered Fremantle's list to be light years ahead of ours and it was incomprehensible that someone would choose to coach at Melbourne over Fremantle.

    Another example: several weeks ago Parkin visited Arden Street to lend his advice to the Kangaroos for a few days. Attended trainings, coaching meetings etc. The question was raised as to which clubs he had provided some form of coaching assistance voer the years. Melbourne was the only Victorian club he hadn't helped out at some stage.

    Perhaps I'm reading too much into it but I was wondering if anyone knew of us whizzing in this guy's cereal at some stage. Really irks me, cause I otherwise respect his opinion and god knows we could use a brain like his at the moment.

    David Parkin is a serious Melbourne supporter.He says that is who he barracks for as that is who he barracked for as a child.Maybe he is just as angry as all melb supporters

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
