Without permission to train with the Pies either.

All goes to character, or lack there of.

Luke Ball will leave a much bigger legacy in the AFL than GF choker Lyon!
Excellent summation

Evidence regarding the first part of your observation was definitely how Bally played in 2010 under Micky Sh1thouse. Luke also backed up with a couple of outstanding years post 2010 under FigJam.

Not sure about their IQ's and not sure about any legacy either - both certainly have given it their all. I think if Lyon doesn't win a flag maybe his leagacy will be a valuable lesson that others don't want to repeat.

Wow. I think we can see all the IQ in a couple of posts.
And if anyone had any doubt about your IQ in your first 2 thousand odd posts, you've definitely put any doubt to rest with your subsequent 39 thousand posts

The only thing I want from Ball is a F/S pick who plays 250+ games & plays effectively in 2 or 3 grand final victories !!

Hell, NO!
We would be laughed out of the comp. Goes against EVERYTHING we are doing. We are on the ight track. We have Reiwoldt, Montagna, Dempster, Schnieder as leaders. We have Armitage, Newnes, Geary all great leaders coming through and will be ready come 2017 to take over.
Exciting times ahead. 2020 that elusive flag is OURS. You know the best thing? No other team like us. No other team is rebuilding THIS much. come 2020 we will be in a league of our own. Especially come 2022-2024. While everyone else is rebuilding or coming of huge eras I reckon we could do a lions and nab 3 flags. ;)
Hang in there peeps.
