Garry Lyon & Bill Brownless Feud

These 2 have allegedly had a severe falling out and at one is very unlikely to return to the Footy Show, if not both.

Could be anything, but judging by the way I've seen one of the two have a crack at anything that moves, and the other have a similar reputation, I'm not surprised.

Interesting, have heard similar 'Mach'...

A story brewing big time. Word doing the traps is Lyon may have gotten a rad cosy with Nicky.

If true -  confirms everything I've thought about Gary for the past 10 years -  selfish, arrogant, [censored].

No they can't. Read the code of conduct.

Didn't even know there was a code of conduct - I'm overseas and can't access, but thanks Doc.

Billy surely is not much different by comparison. Many times I've witnessed some less-than-savoury public behaviour by that man.

Not big on details. 

It's from Robinson.

The two have had a massive falling-out.

Brownless says unlikely to be able to repair friendship.

Neither of them are currently booked for the footy show and they don't know which of them, if any, will be involved this year.

Both are contracted to MMM, but on different shows.

Brownless has had a tough year including a few stupid comments getting called in the media and his wife leaving him. 

That's about it. 

Oh my.... Could spell the end for the Footy Show!

That SEN article is a magnificent example of how to spell something out without ever mentioning it.

Bill hasn't always been the most loyal of husbands if you know what I mean...


I guess I'll just have to keep watching something else on a Thursday night...

From some of what goes on around here I'm not surprised you didn't know there was a code of conduct. It's a thread towards the top on the Melbourne Demons forum page.

Thanks for that RalphiusMaximus, interesting stuff..

I remember seeing Brownless in public a few years ago and someone yelled out in genuine confusion, "HEY LOOK, ITS JASON DUNSTALL!"

Billy wasn't too happy after that

Really cant wait for the footy !!


Could not give a rats ass. In the case of these two, less is more

See Robbo has put this story out and I knew once I read it all sorts of stuff will start to spread and rumours will happen. But I wonder when the feud erupted because once footy finishes its a joke on radio that Garry becomes a recluse and doesnt speak to anyone off season and Bill has been away most of the summer. 

anyway it will be interesting to see how this does affect the footy show. Its well known the producer spoke to both Sam and Bill about there behavior so this could be a way out to move Bill. 

The person stuck in the middle of this will be JB.

As a North man he should be used to it...

 

Good, happy to see Brownless off the air. Terrible dad's mate humour that got old 20 years ago.

If it spells the end of the Footy Show, thank god for that.

When I went back to Oz in 2010 after 6 years away, I wasn't used to the new line up so I found some of their schtick relatively fresh (Up till that point, I was still used to Eddie and Trev) . It was all Garry on the stretcher, Garry doing the warning dance, Garry being hairy. 
Then I saw it again... and again... and again... 
Then I saw all the lazy use of YouTube footage.
Then I saw Sam Newman remind me of the good old days when you could actually racially vilify people or humiliate them on the grounds of gender.
Then I wondered WTF I was actually watching. How people have watched it for ten years since has got me scratching my head.

  • 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.
