Chris Fagan is proof that good blokes can succeed

[sidberns]

Fagan has to be one of the most likeable genuine blokes to ever coach well done 🎉

[tommygunn]

I owe Fages an apology. I was calling for his head after our poor start. I didn't think he could get us here but i was wrong. Massive Lions fan and I'm only happy to gorge myself on some humble pie! 💪🦁🦁🏆

Imagine being David King right now. "Fagan should be replaced with Chris Scott" lmao 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Gonna go down as one of the worst hot takes of all time. It's so great seeing Fages win it all. Turned their season around, got them through 2 tough prelims, and now won the ultimate glory. (And did it while all that legal mess was going on). Been a remarkable year. He’s a class act. Deserves all the success and praise.

Chris Fagan is sitting there, listening to Will Ashcroft speak, and thinking to himself "Well there is the next Brisbane captain sorted"

[SusanElliot]

Fagan so generous in his recognition of everyone involved in the win today! Such a humble and positive person.

As a swan’s supporter to you Chris Fagan and the lions written off after about 6 rounds and showed us what it really takes to win a GF 🔥🏆🔥

It's actually one of the best premiership runs we have ever seen. The Lions knocked out 1st, 3rd, 4th and 8th placed team in these finals. They had to beat 3 of the top 4 sides to take it home

[petewilliam]

Collingwood supporter very happy for Brisbane Lions )). Great to see Fagan finally a premiership coach

[richardandmaxinemc]

“Keep trying to learn, keep trying to get better” “Crisis creates opportunities” ……the wisdom of this guy is next level. So humble too. No wonder his players go to war for him each week and now have the premiership cup. Congratulations Brisbane, you guys put on a playing masterclass.

Darcy deserves a lot of praise. He literally managed to hold the Fort at the Ruck in McInerney's absense.

[leigh]

As a die hard Collingwood fan, this makes me proud. He's up there with the best. Well done Brisbane Lions !!

[DBOYJUN]

As a Swans fan, well done BL, you knew how to win. Enjoy the celebration.

[MichaelJames]

Well done Brissy💪🏼. There ya go my Dad Ralph R.I.P it's all yours now 💙

[Tosicc]

"you can coach poorly and win" - david king after brisbane won the semi final. "brisbane should explore sacking fagan for chris scott" - david king. "absolute silence" - David king after brisbane spanked the cats at the mcg in a prelim lmao

[touka]

Congratulations Brisbane great win from an Essendon life member

[keithminchin]

It’s great to see a lot of young talent coming through the ranks. Bodes well for the future.

[NotDimensional]

David King owes the Brisbane Lions an apology. I remember early in the season when the Lions were 0-4 he asked the question "have they missed the window and left one on the table"

[phillipberger]

Well done to Chris, staff, and brilliant by the players. From a Swans fan.

FFS, why can’t the AFL get microphones for the journos in these post-match interviews ?? It is incredibly unprofessional of the AFL not to get this sorted….it happens every week. C’mon guys, you’re better than that.
