Lions called to arms
Michael Place
The Brisbane Lions’ Melbourne-based supporter group hopes tomorrow night’s Ansett Cup grand final can rekindle the passion of disenchanted Fitzroy supporters.
The clash against Port Adelaide at Football Park is the Lions’ first grand final since Fitzroy lost to Hawthorn in the 1992 night grand final (the clubs merged in 1997).
The Victorian Lions Supporters Group spokeswoman Sharon Torney believes even the most hardened objectors to the merger will feel some allegiance this weekend.
