Seat allocation will be as follows
1. All lions members
2. All Fitzroy supporters
3. All supporters wanting to boo Collingwood
4. All other non Collingwood supporters
The lions will also provide the umpires for the game and run all goal reviews
Collingwood players will also not be permitted to wear footy boots and must play in leg irons
Announcement due Thursday
We've all heard that a million monkeys banging on a million typewriters will eventually reproduce the entire works of Shakespeare. Now, thanks to the Internet, we know this is not true.�

Wright is going to sit down personally one on one with all veterans players (Pendles Howe Sidey Adams) and have a conversation whether they feel now they have the drive and determination to go on another season
All have contracts for next season but winning the flag may have changed there mindsets
He will do this before the Copeland
Eh, they’re called exit interviews.every player gets one. Why the hell would we want to push Pendies and Sidey out after their GF performance. Come on qldmagpie, just admit you were wrong about Sidey.

Mate I don’t know how you get my post was about Sidey
These meetings by my understanding are outside of the exit interviews
Exit interviews are conducted by the coaches
I’m assuming Wright just wants to be sure all the veterans players are willing and able to do it all again
It’s a fair question
If I had to guess 1 might pull the pin it would be Howe to be honest
After his arm injury this year his body might have had enough

Absolutely, who'd not want to experience that again?
Form and fatigue management will dictate who gets to play a role. Fly will not take any passengers or play the sentimental card, he's already proven that. He's a nice bloke but he's ruthless when it comes to getting results.

this! aint no one jumping ship!!
You cant fix stupid, turns out you cant quarantine it either!
What about Mason Cox. The way he reacted after the match, lingering on the ground, staring at the crowd. I wasn't sure if he was in shock. He looked like he was in stunned disbelief. It's obviously a big deal but I started to wonder whether Mason would consider retirement, particularly with the Goldstein talk last week.
I hope he goes around again. I reckon he will be a better player next year if he gets his body right to go again. Just wait for the premiership swagger!
Ed Allen kicked our last goal of the year at the 58minute mark
I think people aren’t realising the mental fatigue this has on players
They have to commit to another long preseason (yes it would be modified for older players)
The conversation Wright will have to ensure there head space is right
Reason I mentioned Howe was he came agonisingly close to never playing again and now he’s tasted the ultimate success and he’s made comments since coming back that he will a long time retired and wants to ensure he’s capable of being a normal dad
Interestingly fly mentioned Pendles in his post match and said in the second half of the season he set 5 PB’s in the gym which is amazing but also shows his level of dedication
