The last Roy Boy- is at MFC

[TonyMelb 7]

Martin Pike confirmed on SEN last night that Chrissy Johnson of Lions may not be the last Fitzroy listed player to play AFL.

Wardy was on the Fitzroy supplementary list in the Roys last year but did not get to play a senior game before FFC folded.

Pity this was not publisied before the game on Sunday night as may have added some interest (sorely needed) & if was Wardy's last game in AFL.

IF Wardy plays on next year (???) he will be the last and only Fitzroy player in AFL & so only remaining connection for pure Fitzroy people apart from Ross Lyon and P Roos who are coaching & Gary Pert who somehow got a gig at the filth!

Of coures they all missed their best opportunity for greatness when the purchase of FFC by MFC did not go thru. It was Roos, Pert & co that MFC wanted!

Said this last week when W_J posted an almost identical thread. Ben Holland also spent a season on the Fitzroy senior list.

Being a supp list player it is a bit of a long bow to draw. Same for Holland. I don't think he actually stepped in the door at Fitzroy.

Chris Johnson is rightly the last Roy Boy!

holland didnt step in the door- he stayed in adelaide. but was officially listed nonetheless and was traded by them to richmond at the end of the season.

for all intents and purposes he is the last roy boy, however scott was there at the end. and played for the place...
