Just in case anyone wasn’t sure what he was up to, the 42-year-old carried signs that read “Lost the 02 Granny to Brisbane” and “Lost the Brownlow Medal to Brisbane”. “So you want me to go down to Collingwood training, where there will be tens of thousands of people today, in Brisbane kit, to do a Street Talk,” Fevola asks Box on air, to which she responds extremely favourably.Indeed, some Collingwood fans didn’t seem too keen on the “Brisbane, Brisbane” chants Fevola started in a video of his arrival at training.Finishing off Fevola’s outfit were a series of badges pinned to his scarf showing past and present Lions stars.
Noted prankster Fevola also had a badge of Justin Leppitsch, a former All Australian defender and head coach of the Lions, who is currently an assistant coach at Collingwood.
