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
